About Renee
Renee Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing anxiety, stress, grief, and life changes. She writes in a straightforward way and listens without judgment. Renee aims to create a calm space where clients can say what’s on their mind and start to make sense of hard feelings.
She brings two decades of experience in mental health to each session. Her work often focuses on fears and stress that come from trauma, loss, or long-term patterns.
Background and approach
She uses a mix of approaches to meet real problems like sleep troubles, relationship strain, addiction, and low self-esteem. Renee draws on existential ideas to help people find meaning and make choices that fit their values. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to teach practical skills for handling difficult thoughts and emotions.
Cognitive Behavioral techniques help with changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what each person needs. Renee pays attention to history and attachment patterns when they affect current relationships and coping.
She also works with concerns such as ADHD, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and body image in the context of overall emotional health. Clients can expect clear, down-to-earth guidance and tools to try between meetings. Renee aims to support steady progress, whether someone is coping with a recent loss or managing long-standing struggles.
She practices in Michigan and conducts sessions in English.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice, and responsibility in a person’s life. It helps when major questions or losses make someone re-evaluate what matters and how they want to live. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck and to act in ways that match personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and ongoing stress. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds and coping; it helps people understand patterns that affect intimacy, communication, and trust.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That way therapy stays practical and tuned to the client’s needs rather than following a fixed script.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video is useful when face-to-face interaction helps build connection. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text let people message shorter updates or manage tasks between sessions. These options give flexibility for different schedules, energy levels, and communication preferences.
