About Renee
Renee Capanna is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio with 25 years of experience. She works with people who are facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating and food-related issues, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation.
She starts from the view that each person knows their own story. Sessions focus on listening, naming strengths, and using what already works to address what feels difficult. Conversations are straightforward and practical, with attention to how daily habits and thoughts affect mood and behavior.
Renee uses several approaches to fit different concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and tries small, doable changes. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the person's goals and perspective central during planning and choices. She also draws on existential and Jungian ideas to talk about meaning, values, and deeper patterns when that suits the client.
In practice she helps people manage life transitions, relationship and communication problems, and caregiver stress. She also supports work on abandonment and attachment issues, codependency, and eating-related concerns. Sessions include practical tools and conversational reflection so people can try things between meetings.
Her background across clinical settings informs a flexible approach to problems like depression, grief, addiction, and career stress. Renee aims to help people recognize their strengths and take clear next steps toward coping and clearer decision making.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Renee combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that fit remote work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's goals and perspective, so sessions revolve around what the client wants to address. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors, using clear exercises and small experiments to test new ways of coping.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Renee will work with the client to decide which methods to emphasize based on needs, goals, and what feels most practical. That choice can shift over time as progress and preferences become clearer.
