About Renisha
Renisha Oubre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 12 years of experience. She sees adults and people across different age ranges who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and changes that come with blended households and stepfamily life.
She uses a client-centered approach and takes a nondirective stance. That means she listens first and checks understanding before offering suggestions. Sessions focus on the client's goals and practical steps that fit daily life.
Renisha draws on several therapy styles depending on what each person needs. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and DBT skills to manage strong emotions and impulsivity. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing techniques appear when they help someone keep moving forward.
Her background includes work as a school counselor and mental health counselor alongside her LPC credential. That experience informs how she talks with parents and people in blended family situations about routines, boundaries, and communication without taking sides.
Expect straightforward sessions that aim to clarify problems and create small, testable changes. She invites clients to give feedback so the approach can be adjusted as work progresses. The focus stays on what the client wants to change and how to make that change manageable day to day.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Client-centered therapy is about listening closely and shaping sessions around the client's priorities. With this approach she stays nondirective and checks understanding often so the client leads the focus.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Online CBT sessions often include brief between-session exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving, which can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills can be practiced in short steps and then discussed in subsequent sessions to build steady habit change.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to goals, preferences, and daily demands rather than sticking to one technique. Expect adjustments as the work unfolds so the plan stays practical and useful.
Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday break, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. The online setting still supports skill practice, homework discussions, and focused problem-solving tailored to blended household concerns.
