About Renee

Renee Glass is a licensed master social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, and depression. She focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental, with attention to each person’s story and goals.

Renee pays close attention to feelings like guilt, shame, and panic. She also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiving strain, and chronic illness or pain. Conversations aim to make daily life more manageable and to reduce emotional overwhelm.

Her work draws on familiar, evidence-informed methods. Renee uses client-centered conversations to understand what matters most to the person in front of her. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques and elements of dialectical behavior therapy to build skills for managing thoughts and intense emotions.

Mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing are woven into sessions when they fit the person’s needs. These tools help with focus, motivation, and steadying strong reactions. Renee emphasizes collaboration so people leave with clear, usable strategies.

Renee brings nine years of clinical experience in Michigan to her practice as an LMSW, working with a wide range of concerns from family conflict to life purpose questions.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. Online sessions using this approach mean the therapist will reflect your concerns and tailor sessions around your goals and values. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. In an online setting CBT often includes setting small goals, practicing skills between sessions, and reviewing progress together. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. When used online, DBT-style work can teach breathing, grounding, and problem-solving techniques that help during intense moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan so it feels useful and manageable.

Session formats are not specified in her biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports using in-the-moment tools and homework between appointments to reinforce skill building.
