About Renee
Renee Guerrieri is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 27 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing relationship strain, grief, intimacy issues, parenting challenges, and coping with major life changes. Renee also focuses on concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and issues around aging and end of life.
She trained in social work at Tulane University and has provided mental health counseling across many settings since 1997. Her practice has included work with active duty military members, Veterans, and their families for the past 18 years, which has contributed to her familiarity with military-related stresses and transitions.
Renee uses several well-known therapeutic approaches in her work, including Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and existential therapy. She emphasizes short-term, solution-focused work and evidence-based methods when appropriate. She is certified to provide CBT and Cognitive Processing Therapy as noted in her background.
In sessions she offers practical skills training such as communication techniques, structured approaches to conflict, rebuilding trust and increasing intimacy, and coping strategies for different life stages. She also provides psycho-educational sessions on social skills and relationship communication when clients request them.
Renee aims to create clear, goal-oriented plans and will refer clients elsewhere when a need falls outside her experience. Sessions are conducted in English in Florida, and she does not take international clients.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and track strong emotions and attachment patterns that affect relationships. In practice this means focusing on feelings, noticing interaction patterns, and working to shift those patterns toward more connected responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that align with personal values; it is often used for coping with life changes and persistent internal struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by practicing new ways of thinking and behavioral experiments to reduce distress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process can include trying different techniques across sessions to see what helps most.
The original biography does not specify which remote formats are used, so confirm the available session options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Others prefer longer scheduled meetings to work through relational or grief-related material. Discussing practical needs up front helps match the style and length of sessions to everyday routines and responsibilities.
