Getting to know Renee Deschaine

Hi there, I'm Renee! My name is Renee Deschaine, LCSW. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of New England. My approach to therapy is client-centered, grounded in the belief that people have the innate ability to understand themselves and make the changes needed for growth. I emphasize providing a safe, nonjudgmental, and empathetic space where clients feel heard and understood. My approach The most common theoretical approaches I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My focus I enjoy working with individuals of all ages. Early in my career, I focused mostly on the pediatric population. I later gained experience with adolescents and adults. Each population requires different approaches, but I truly enjoy working with them all in their own way. My communication style My approach is gentle. I allow you to guide your work because you are doing the hard stuff. It is not my job to tell you what to work on but to help you develop goals that best fit your life. I strive to meet you where you are in each session. I am always conscious that you know yourself better than I do, and my approach empowers you to make your own changes. My journey to mental healthcare I wanted to be who I needed when I was younger. I wanted to be a safe place where anyone can share about themselves and truly feel they can be who they are. This world is full of judgment and societal pressures. With me, in the space we create, you can be yourself and know you are accepted, heard, and safe. My goals for you I support clients in creating their own goals. You know best what you want to work on and where you want to be. We are more motivated toward our goals when we make them ourselves.
