About Renee

Renee Scott-Webster is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with four years of professional experience. She works with adults facing addictions, sleeping difficulties, compassion fatigue, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. Renee also addresses communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, self-love, social anxiety and phobia, and questions about life purpose.

Her approach centers on straightforward conversations about what feels stuck and what matters now. She listens for practical patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions focus on clear steps clients can try between meetings, plus time to talk through difficult feelings when they come up.

Renee adapts the pace to each person’s needs and preferences. She and the client build a plan together that balances short-term relief with longer-term change. This can include strategies for better sleep, managing urges tied to addiction, and ways to reduce burnout from caregiving or work-related stress.

She draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques and uses them in plain language. Expect direct discussion of relationships, behavior patterns, and real-life routines. Renee aims to help people notice small shifts that add up over time.

To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Renee uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in plain language. One common approach she draws on focuses on changing behavior patterns through short, practical exercises. This helps with habits tied to addiction, sleep routines, and daily stress management. Another frequent method involves working with thoughts and emotions to reduce anxiety and shame. That approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding.

Finding the right way of working is collaborative. Renee will discuss what you want to address, try approaches that fit your goals, and adjust methods over time. The plan is shaped by your priorities, responses, and practical needs rather than a fixed sequence of steps.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make therapy fit into everyday life better by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and making it easier to schedule appointments around work or caregiving. Talk with Renee about how you prefer to meet so sessions can be arranged to match your routine.
