Renisha Oubre, LPC

Renisha Oubre is a school counselor, mental health counselor, and LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 12 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, couples, and adults. Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, abuse, psychotic disorders, mood disorders, dual-diagnosis, PTSD, substance use, depression, anxiety, relationship and family-of-origin issues, and high-risk behaviors such as alcohol misuse. She also works with grief, parenting challenges, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and attention-related difficulties.

She practices from a client-centered, nondirective stance, listening closely to understand each person’s perspective while honoring autonomy and self-direction. When clarification is needed she checks for understanding and adjusts her approach. Renisha integrates other evidence-informed strategies as appropriate, drawing from approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to match the needs of each client.

Renisha provides individual and family counseling for clients of all ages and backgrounds. She views counseling as a collaborative process in which the client is a full partner, and she encourages honesty, openness, and a sincere desire to change to maximize progress. She invites clients to share suggestions or concerns throughout treatment so adjustments can be made as needed, and she looks forward to working with those seeking support.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Renisha draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to guide online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience, offering a nondirective, empathetic stance that supports autonomy and personal growth. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT provides practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing impulsive or self-destructive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Renisha works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative method reflects how many licensed professionals and therapists tailor care - adjusting techniques over time as progress and feedback guide treatment.

Online therapy with Renisha is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home or other convenient locations.
