Renee is an excellent therapist. She really takes the time to listen and understand your concerns. She has lots of ideas and suggestions for techniques to support improving your mental health. I've been working with her about one year, and I'm really glad I made the decision to seek help. She is very kind and empathic, and makes you feel safe to discuss your feelings. Renee is great!

Renee is an amazing person and therapist. When I signed up with teencounseling.com I didn’t know much about the quality of the therapy besides reading reviews but as it seemed convenient I decided to give it a try and I’m so glad I did. Renee is kind, patient, easy to open up to and has an uncanny knack to get to the heart of issues and offer great solutions and tools that have helped me so much with both my anxiety and ADHD. She’s very understanding and is like a friend I can trust.

I would definitely recommend her to others confident they would benefit from her wisdom and experience.

Took the time to listen to me. Allowed me to lead the focus of our conversations so I could focus on what was most troubling me. Her expertise in addiction/substance abuse makes me feel better equipped to manage future issues.

Renee has offered some very helpful insights to me. Often times I struggle to put thoughts into words, but will do my best and she echos back what I’m trying to articulate perfectly. She is a phenomenal listener and finds ways to frame things very simply and help reshape perspective. Would definitely recommend.

Renee has been SUCH a huge help to me and my situation despite the issue I’m dealing with not being easily addressed. She has given me tips on how to communicate and really helped me change how I may tackle certain conversations, and then deal with my own thoughts regarding anxiety. So grateful for Renee’s help throughout all that I am dealing with!

Renee is the best. She's super reliable and kind. When you talk to her you can see she's really trying to understand what might trouble you and is pretty calculated in her responses which she can articulate in way that's relatable. She's been giving me tools to cope with stress, anxiety and and helping me understand my triggers and why they upset me. She's also patient with me as I try to implement them as it's not always easy. As a bonus, she's pretty funny too all while keeping things professional! I feel like I've made good progress with her.

Renee has helped me through a difficult period for me and has shown me support and understanding even when I could not support or understand myself. After a few months of talking with her, my life has completely flipped around - for the better! She gave me the tools I needed to help me become my best self and held me accountable to my goals. She was exactly who I needed and I am so grateful to have worked with her!

Renee is warm, kind, and supportive. She pushes me to think about why I do things without it feeling judgmental or harsh. She has given me strategies to help with my feelings of overwhelm as well as to improve my communication with my family, and I'm in a much more settled place than I was when I started a few months ago!

She is awesome

Renee has been so fantastic facilitating help for our teen son. She is diligent, kind and so caring. We are confident that we made the right choice choosing her for him. These are pivotal years with so many things happening. Thankfully our son will have Renne and teen counseling to turn to. What we most appreciate more than any other online “teen counseling app” we looked at was that Renne truly wanted our input first before talking with our son. We made it clear we wanted him to have this be his own private journey after that (barring anything serious) which she was completely in favor of. At some point as parents we need to step back and let our children trust that we trust them. It’s nice to know that our son is in such excellent care. I certainly wish we had found Renee Dupuis’s earlier because I feel like our son could have benefited from her expertise regarding social anxiety and situational anxiety but thankfully we have her now. Also, the convenience of him being able to video chat, text or talk with her any time an appointment is available beats ANY IN HOUSE DR OFFICE for the monetary value. So, thank you Renee Dupuis’s!! We appreciate you!!

I've been in sessions with Renee for a short time but already can tell the difference from other therapists I've worked with. She truly listens and actually remembers details about my life. It feels like she truly cares and speaks in a kind and open manner.

She has a way of making me feel heard. Checks in on my between sessions. Remembers our topics of discussion & my goals. Gives me good suggestions. I never feel pressured or judged or that she "feels sorry for me".

Very nice and easy to talk too. Very measured in the things she says so it makes me feel comfortable in her input and guidance.

Work with me!
