Dr. Renee Nelson

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

As a licensed therapist in Arizona, I bring over two decades of compassionate, specialized experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on creating affirming, inclusive spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals, trauma survivors, and those navigating significant life transitions.

I specialize in addressing diverse experiences including chronic illness, grief, relationship dynamics, workplace stress, and personal growth. My approach is deeply empathetic, focusing on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, and work through challenging emotions like guilt, shame, and panic.

With expertise in trauma-informed care, I support clients through various experiences—from trauma recovery to postpartum challenges, chronic illness, and life stage transitions. I’m particularly committed to working with young adults, women, and LGBTQ+ communities, offering a non-judgmental, supportive therapeutic environment.

My therapeutic style emphasizes collaboration, personal empowerment, and holistic healing. I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients develop resilience, understand their unique strengths, and create meaningful pathways toward emotional wellness.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether online therapy truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and managing life changes, research indicates that therapy delivered remotely can be as effective as traditional in-person care.

One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect with therapists through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging, choosing the format that fits their schedule and comfort level. This flexibility often makes it easier to maintain consistent care.

All sessions with online therapists are provided by licensed professionals, and if someone feels they would prefer a different match, it is possible to switch therapists at any time. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible, practical route to support during challenging periods or transitions.
