01About Rene
Rene Jourdan is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who brings 11 years of clinical experience to her work. She uses a compassionate, person-centered stance to help adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and intense life changes. Rene blends several practical methods in sessions so people can try what fits them best.
She often draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to reshape unhelpful thoughts and on acceptance-based tools to build more flexible responses to difficult feelings.
Background and approach
She also uses attachment-informed techniques to address relationship and intimacy concerns. Her background includes coordinating crisis services in North Idaho, where she spent years helping callers in urgent distress. That work shaped how she supports people who face suicidal thoughts, self-harm, or co-occurring mental health and substance concerns.
She has also led programs that support recovery and peer services. Rene has run group and individual addiction treatment programs and facilitated several therapeutic groups. Examples include coping skills groups, basic mental health processing groups, and the Matrix Model used in addiction work.
These group formats are often part of how she helps people build skills and peer support. In sessions she focuses on clear, achievable goals. Conversations tend to be straightforward and collaborative.
People looking for an empathic counselor who combines practical strategies with relationship-focused care may find her approach helpful.

04Online support
Online approaches that meet you where you are
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions by focusing on what matters most rather than trying to eliminate uncomfortable emotions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges because it gives clear tools to change how problems are handled.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect present connections. It helps people who struggle with intimacy, trust, and communication to build healthier ways of relating to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, personal preferences, and what they want to try. That choice can change over time as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when writing feels easier. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
