About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, licensed in North Carolina. I have over 15 years of experience working as a counselor and social worker. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, behavioral issues, parenting problems, ADHD, grief, loss, and bereavement.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I strive to establish a therapeutic relationship that is warm, understanding, respectful, and compassionate. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and psychoeducational therapy. We will explore problems and concerns and develop plans to better understand and address feelings and behaviors.
No one has all the answers, but we can work together to recognize and address your identified problem areas. I look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Renee Kerns. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
When I first sought therapy with Better Help, I had gone through a series of rejections in my job search. My confidence and motivation had plummeted. Renee's support has been consistent and comforting for me, and she has helped me to see that my inherent traits and experiences that I perceived as handicaps were actually strengths that I can own (and in some cases even showcase to prospective employers). She also believes in me consistently, which is important especially when I feel burnt out and start to doubt that I'm on the right path!
