Renee Guerrieri, LCSW

Renee Guerrieri is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 27 years of practice based in Florida. She helps people facing relationship strain, grief, intimacy issues, parenting challenges, and major life changes. Her approach is straightforward and focused on practical steps people can use between sessions.

Renee uses short-term, solution-focused methods that aim for clear progress. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address thoughts, feelings, and interaction patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered techniques to help people clarify values and build skills that fit their everyday lives.

Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Tulane University and long experience in mental health practice. Over the last 18 years she has worked with active duty military members, Veterans, and their families and has seen a wide range of stressors related to grief, adjustment, and relationships. She offers psycho-educational sessions on communication, trust-building, and practical coping skills.

Renee emphasizes respect, dignity, and unconditional positive regard in sessions. She tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person's needs and invites questions about specific concerns. If a request falls outside her experience she will offer referrals to another provider.

Taking a first step can feel hard, and she aims to make the process manageable. People who want structured, skills-focused work with clear goals often find her style accessible and direct.

How these therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters most, and take small steps toward those values. It can help with life transitions, meaning, and persistent worries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches specific skills to reduce distress and change unhelpful habits. It is often used for anxiety, mood shifts, and relationship-reactive thinking. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional patterns in close relationships and helps people learn new ways to respond and connect when fear or conflict arise.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Plans are adjusted as progress is made, and clients are invited to give feedback about what is or isn’t helping.

Confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for focused check-ins between other responsibilities. It can also support continuity when schedules or locations change, while still centering the same practical skills and communication work used in in-person sessions.
