About Renee
Renee Alfieri is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on problems like addiction, depression, anxiety, stress, and anger. She also helps people with relationship concerns, self-esteem, parenting strain, and career questions.
Renee uses practical, conversational work in sessions. She leans on approaches such as client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. She also draws on mindfulness strategies to manage strong emotions and solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals.
In a typical meeting she listens to what matters most and helps the person pick one or two small changes to practice between sessions. That might mean tracking triggers, rehearsing new ways to speak up, or testing a short behavioral experiment at work or home. Motivational interviewing is used when people feel stuck about making a change.
Renee aims for clear, direct conversations rather than long theoretical talks. She frames work around specific problems - for example, anger that shows up at work, or resentment that builds at home - and practical steps to reduce those moments. Sessions move at a pace set by the person she is working with.
People who choose her often want concrete tools and straightforward feedback. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How Renee uses practical therapy tools online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflection. The therapist follows the person’s lead, clarifies what matters, and helps set practical goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches simple experiments and exercises to reduce unhelpful reactions such as snapping or piling on resentment. Mindfulness therapy introduces short practices to notice tension and calm the body, which can reduce sudden anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee works collaboratively to pick methods that match the client's goals and preferences. Early sessions often include trying one or two small techniques to see what fits, then adjusting as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people use practices learned in sessions in their day-to-day routines more quickly.
