Renee Guerrieri

Renee Guerrieri is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who helps people navigate grief, relationship strain, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, and big life changes. She brings 27 years of clinical experience to conversations about loss, connection, and caregiving challenges. Renee writes treatment plans with practical goals and clear steps.

Renee trained at Tulane University and earned a Master of Social Work degree in 1997. She emphasizes short-term, solution-focused care that centers what a person wants to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy are part of her toolbox for addressing patterns of thought and coping after loss.

Her work includes focused sessions on communication skills, rebuilding trust, and improving intimacy. Renee also offers psycho-educational help on “fair fighting” techniques, social skills, and coping strategies for various life stages. She invites clients to raise specific needs and will refer out if another provider is a better fit.

Over the past 18 years she has worked with active duty military members, Veterans, and their families, which has shaped her understanding of stress that comes with service and transitions. She also supports people dealing with aging and geriatric concerns, caregiving burden, adoption and foster care questions, and hospice and end-of-life counseling.

Renee approaches each person with dignity, respect, and unconditional positive regard. She collaborates with clients to tailor conversations and goals to their situation. Taking the first step can be hard, and she aims to make the start of therapy clear and practical.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people clarify their values and take practical steps toward them while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for life transitions, grief, and finding direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. This approach often helps with anxiety, depression, and coping skills after loss. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on identifying and reshaping patterns in close relationships to improve connection and trust, which can be helpful for intimacy and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT, EFT, or a mix is the best fit and adjust as therapy proceeds.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats offered before booking since current session options are not listed here. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also gives more flexibility for people juggling caregiving, work, or medical appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques like communication practice, behavioral experiments, and values work to an online setting to help progress toward your goals.
