Renisha Oubre, LPC

Renisha Oubre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana. She brings 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, parenting strain, and relationship challenges. She listens carefully and aims to create a respectful space where people can speak honestly about what they are facing.

Renisha uses a client-centered approach that keeps the person's goals and choices at the center. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot patterns of thinking that make problems worse, and on dialectical behavior therapy skills when emotion regulation is a priority. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are added when they suit a person's needs.

Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings. That might include noticing unhelpful thoughts, trying out a different behavior, or practicing a short grounding exercise. Renisha adjusts her methods to match what a person finds most useful rather than following a single formula.

She has worked with a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, bipolar challenges, and family-related stress. She also offers support for issues such as abandonment, attachment, blended family adjustments, caregiver strain, and communication problems.

People can expect straightforward feedback, collaborative problem-solving, and clear next steps after sessions. Renisha encourages honest conversation about what is working and what needs to change so therapy stays focused on real-life improvements.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Renisha often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thinking patterns that feed anxiety or low mood. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what helps in everyday life.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which means she listens closely and follows the person's lead. This approach helps people feel heard and decide their own goals while the therapist offers support and reflection.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when strong emotions cause problems. DBT techniques include simple skills for managing intense feelings, improving relationships, and coping with urges that lead to risky behavior.

Finding the right mix of methods is a shared process. Renisha will work with each person to pick approaches that match their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. That way sessions stay practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. Video is useful for fuller conversations and skill coaching, phone can work for check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around school, work, or caregiving duties.
