She works in both English and Spanish and focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and depression.

Her practice emphasizes practical, evidence-informed strategies drawn from approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Renata helps clients address related concerns including abandonment and attachment issues, grief from divorce and separation, guilt and shame, isolation, and struggles with life purpose and midlife transitions.

Renata creates an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process, supporting each person as they take the often-difficult first steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life. Her goal is to help clients build coping skills, process painful experiences, and identify realistic next steps toward recovery and personal growth.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Therapy

Renata integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach practical skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress. DBT is useful for people dealing with chronic anxiety, mood swings, or difficulty regulating emotions.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help process traumatic memories and reduce the intensity of distressing reactions. EMDR can be a helpful option for those working through post-traumatic stress, abuse, or other painful experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Renata collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods over time so therapy stays focused and relevant.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access licensed professionals from home or work, and choose the communication style that best supports progress.
