About Renee

Renee Jaxel is a Nevada licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 10 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, motivation, coping with life changes, and life purpose questions. Renee also offers executive-style coaching for people navigating work transitions and role changes.

Renee sees people as the experts in their own stories and focuses on practical steps they can try between sessions. Conversations are direct and problem-focused. She helps people notice strengths, break problems into smaller parts, and test small changes to see what works in everyday life.

Her approach is task-oriented and respectful of each person's pace. Sessions typically include setting concrete goals, trying new behaviors, and reviewing what helped or got in the way. This appeals to people who want clear next steps rather than vague reassurance.

Renee has worked across a range of challenges including caregiving stress, chronic illness and pain, cancer-related concerns, aging and geriatric issues, and financial stress. She also has experience supporting first responders, veterans, and people facing end-of-life planning and hospice-related matters.

Practical problems like panic attacks, mood shifts, substance concerns, communication breakdowns, and sleep disruption are within her scope. Renee uses evidence-based techniques and coaching methods to help people find manageable ways forward. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

Therapeutic methods and how online sessions function

Renee uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach she draws on is behavioral activation, which means identifying behaviors that increase wellbeing and planning small, doable steps to try. This method is useful for low mood, low motivation, and sleep disruption.

She also makes use of skills-based anxiety management that teaches breathing, grounding, and short routines to reduce panic and high arousal. These skills are practiced in session and adapted to each person's daily life needs.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Renee will work with the client to choose techniques based on their goals, current challenges, and how they prefer to work. She checks progress regularly and adjusts plans when something isn’t working.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow brief check-ins when more frequent contact helps, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises for audio or video meetings and suggest shorter or longer sessions to match a person's schedule and needs.
