Renee Rogers, LCPC

Renee Rogers is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who brings a compassionate, client-centered approach to counseling. She also holds national certifications as a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Board Certified Counselor (BCC); the LCPC denotes state licensure to practice clinical counseling while the NCC and BCC reflect additional national-level professional credentials. Renee earned a bachelor’s degree in Child Development from Illinois State University and a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Chicago State University, foundations that inform her work with individuals and families across the lifespan.

Her professional path has spanned a variety of settings, from social service agencies in the inner city of Chicago to private practice, hospital, and clinic environments. This breadth of experience has shaped an adaptable and eclectic clinical style, allowing her to work effectively with people presenting with generalized anxiety, depression, grief and loss, violent trauma, anger management concerns, adjustment disorders, relationship difficulties, family conflict, and challenges with self-esteem and self-worth.

Renee emphasizes meeting clients where they are and approaches each person with nonjudgmental compassion. She frames care holistically by examining the whole person - past influences, present circumstances, and future goals - and she draws on multiple theoretical orientations to tailor treatment. Renee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Reality Therapy (often described as Here-and-Now Choice Therapy) to help clients build practical skills and make meaningful changes.

With a focus on creating a supportive therapeutic space, Renee aims to help individuals process difficult emotions, strengthen coping strategies, and improve both short-term functioning and long-term well-being. She welcomes the opportunity to support clients through life transitions and emotional challenges with a steady, strengths-based approach.
