Renee Price, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Renee!

I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, cancer/chronic illness, and mood disorders using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as some of the tools to help you on the path to feeling better.

My focus

I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for young adults throughout their lifespan. I've worked with people from diverse backgrounds and age groups in a variety of settings. I integrate my experiences with compassion to provide culturally informed care in a warm and nonjudgmental space.

My approach

My approach to therapy is to help empower you to become your authentic self, using curiosity and empathy. I aim to create a nonjudgmental environment where you can speak freely about your thoughts and feelings. I incorporate the use of ACT, CBT, and mindfulness strategies to guide you on your path forward.

My communication style

My communication style is grounded, compassionate, direct, and committed to working with you to find new ways of approaching patterns and behaviors that keep you feeling stuck in your relationship with yourself, with others, and with your life's purpose.

My journey to mental healthcare

I chose to become a therapist because I have always genuinely been interested in other people's stories. Not all of the stories were happy, and some people wanted to change. Being a therapist allows me to listen and be a part of the process of giving someone a chance to change their story moving forward.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting with clients is all about working together to identify what you want to accomplish in our time together. Each person is unique, and so are the goals. Together, as we get to know each other, we will set goals and talk about your progress as therapy progresses.

Our first session

What you can expect from our first session together is for us to spend time talking about what is bringing you to therapy right now and how you've been feeling over the past few months and weeks leading up to this session. I'll be asking a lot of questions so that I can get to know you and what you would like for yourself by the end of therapy.
