About Rene

Rene Jourdan is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and other difficult life challenges. Rene aims to offer practical support that helps people move forward and feel more in control of their lives.

Rene uses an integrated, person-centered approach that draws on emotion-focused work, cognitive behavioral ideas, and acceptance-based strategies. She helps people notice their patterns, name painful emotions, and try new ways of coping.

Background and approach

Sessions often include skills practice, problem-solving, and space to talk through past hurts that still cause pain today. Her background includes more than five years providing crisis services in North Idaho and supervising programs for family and peer support and substance use treatment. Rene also manages a program for substance use disorders and leads both group and individual addiction treatment.

This experience informs how she supports people with co-occurring concerns and complex needs. Rene has facilitated several therapeutic groups such as coping skills, basic mental health processing, and the Matrix Model of addiction. People who need focused addiction support or help managing intense emotions may find this group experience especially useful.

She blends practical strategies with empathic listening to help clients set realistic goals. Rene practices in Idaho and works with English-speaking clients, including people located internationally who connect remotely. She emphasizes collaboration and clear steps so people understand what to expect and how therapy can fit into their daily lives.

Online support

How emotion-focused and acceptance-based work online

Emotion-Focused Therapy helps people identify and understand strong emotions and the patterns those feelings create. Online EFT sessions let clients name hard emotions, try new emotional responses, and process difficult memories while talking with a therapist. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts without getting stuck and choosing actions that match personal values; it works well for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by teaching practical skills to stay present and move toward goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client's goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than insisting on a single path.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for full face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, keep momentum with regular contact, and choose formats that feel most comfortable for each person.
