Rene Jourdan, LCPC

Rene Jourdan is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who focuses on helping adults navigate tough life challenges. She brings 11 years of experience and aims to offer steady, compassionate support for people coping with stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, and other complex concerns.

Rene uses an integrated, person-centered approach. She listens first, and then helps people set practical goals. Therapy sessions often include talking through current problems, learning coping skills, and practicing small changes that can make daily life more manageable.

Her background includes more than five years providing crisis support through a regional crisis line in North Idaho. That experience shaped how she responds to people in acute distress and taught practical ways to de-escalate intense moments and focus on immediate safety and stability.

Rene also has experience supervising programs for peer and family support, and leading substance use disorder treatment work. She runs group and individual addiction treatment, and has facilitated groups for coping skills, basic mental health processing, and the Matrix Model of addiction.

Clients commonly bring concerns such as trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar mood disorder, ADHD, chronic illness, relationship difficulties, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. Rene aims to help people build skills, clarify values, and take small steps toward better functioning and more satisfying daily routines.

How Rene's Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It often focuses on building steady habits and tolerating discomfort while moving toward meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and many everyday struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting, and it can help with intimacy, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rene collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together as progress is made.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online or in-person session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets group work and individual sessions reach people in different locations. Talk with the therapist when you schedule to choose the session length and rhythm that fit your life.
