Renisha Oubre , LPC

Renisha Oubre is a school counselor, mental health counselor, and LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 12 years of clinical experience working across age groups. She has supported children, adolescents, couples, and adults facing a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, abuse, psychotic and mood disorders, dual diagnosis, PTSD, substance use, depression, anxiety, relationship and family-of-origin issues, and high-risk behaviors such as alcohol misuse.

Her practice is guided by a client-centered philosophy in which she maintains a nondirective stance and prioritizes understanding each person’s perspective. She emphasizes respect for clients' autonomy and self-direction, and she routinely checks for understanding to ensure treatment aligns with the client's goals. Renisha tailors her work by integrating additional strategies and theories based on individual needs, drawing on approaches that best fit the presenting concerns.

She provides both individual and family counseling and works with clients from diverse backgrounds and life stages. Counseling is presented as a collaborative process in which the client is a full partner; Renisha expects openness, honesty, and a genuine commitment to change to maximize progress. She invites ongoing feedback and will adjust the course of treatment when needed to better support each person’s growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Renisha Oubre

Renisha uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the conversation and their autonomy is respected. This approach helps people clarify values, build self-awareness, and identify goals that feel meaningful to them.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with day-to-day coping.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is another tool she may incorporate when clients need skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT techniques can support individuals who struggle with intense emotions, impulsivity, or relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Renisha collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. She adapts strategies over time and encourages client feedback to refine the plan.

Online therapy with Renisha offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access support from home or work, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible. Licensed professionals, including therapists like Renisha, can effectively use these communication formats to provide consistent, goal-focused treatment.
