Renee Alfieri

Renee Alfieri is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She uses straightforward conversation and goal-focused work to help people facing addiction, depression, anxiety, relationship strain, and other life stresses. Renee emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and consistent support as people make difficult changes.

With ten years of experience as a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), she adapts her approach to each person's needs. Sessions tend to center on clear goals, problem-solving, and building skills for day-to-day coping. Renee draws on client-centered methods to keep the client’s priorities in focus while mixing evidence-informed tools when useful.

She commonly helps people with grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, parenting concerns, and career stress. She also works with issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and eating-related struggles. Renee addresses attachment and abandonment questions, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and other relational difficulties.

In practical terms, she aims to create a space for honest talk and steady progress. Conversations explore current problems, identify small experiments to try between sessions, and track what helps. Her goal is to support clearer choices and better daily routines.

People who prefer a collaborative, down-to-earth style often find her approach helpful. She encourages realistic steps, regular check-ins on progress, and continued adjustment of the plan as needs change.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. The therapist follows the person's lead, helps clarify priorities, and supports self-directed decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions; it uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean starting with client-centered conversations, adding CBT techniques, or combining approaches depending on responses over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling, no commute, and fitting sessions into a busy day. Online work can make it simpler to keep regular check-ins, try between-session exercises, and maintain momentum during life changes.
