Renee Capanna, LCSW, LISW

Renee Capanna is a licensed clinical social worker who draws on 25 years of practice to help people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions. She emphasizes the person in front of her and treats clients as the experts on their own stories. Her approach is practical and respectful, aimed at helping people regain confidence and motivation.

Renee uses a mix of listening and skill-based work to help people manage symptoms and make real changes. Sessions focus on small, doable steps that fit into everyday life. She helps people name what is hard and try new ways of coping that can reduce overwhelm.

Her background includes long experience with eating and food-related issues, addictions, and relationship concerns. She also addresses attachment and abandonment wounds, family of origin problems, caregiver stress, and challenges like codependency and control issues. This range helps when life changes bring old patterns back into view.

Renee draws on therapeutic ideas that include client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, existential thinking, hypnotherapy, and Jungian themes. She adapts these tools to the person she is working with rather than following a fixed protocol.

People who reach out are guided through a clear first step and supported as they try new strategies. Renee aims to make therapy a manageable part of life while helping clients move toward more satisfying days.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspective. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead while offering feedback and support; this helps when someone needs a respectful space to sort out values, identity, or difficult choices.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing different responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and try methods that match those aims. Decisions about techniques are made together and can change as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking to know how sessions are scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try therapy from different settings so they can see what works best for them.
