R. Renee McLaurine
About Spiritual Family Counseling
I am a Master’s-level Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified EMDR Specialist committed to helping individuals heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, and the patterns that keep them living in survival.
While my work is grounded in evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, (CBT), (DBT), and Mindfulness, I believe healing requires more than learning how to manage symptoms. It requires the willingness to look honestly at what shaped us, recognize the patterns we have carried, and face the fear that keeps us from making different choices.
I offer a compassionate but honest approach to therapy. I believe people deserve a space where they can be seen without judgment while also being challenged to grow. My role is not to tell you who to become. It is to help you understand yourself deeply enough to decide who you want to be.
For those who are open to it, I also incorporate spirituality and higher-consciousness practices into the exploration of identity, purpose, and personal growth. My developing work in psychological astrology provides another lens for self-reflection and understanding, while remaining grounded in the clinical foundation of my practice.
Healing is not about erasing your past or becoming someone else. It is about understanding where you came from without allowing it to dictate where you are going.
If you are ready to understand yourself more deeply, break patterns that no longer serve you, and build a life that feels more authentically yours, I invite you to take the first step with me and click the link below to receive your free 15 min consultation.
Mental Health Therapy vs Spiritual Coaching
Mental Health Therapy
A supportive process designed to help you navigate life’s challenges, heal emotional wounds, and improve your overall well-being. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, therapy offers a safe, confidential space to explore your thoughts and feelings. Licensed professionals use proven methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness to help you uncover your strength, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence.
Spiritual Coaching
Spiritual coaching is a journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and alignment with your higher purpose. It’s designed to help you connect with your inner wisdom, achieve personal growth, and find balance in your life. Through practices like meditation, visualization, and energy work, a spiritual coach offers tools to guide you toward clarity, fulfillment, and inner peace.

Voices of Transformation
I have been seeing Renee since Feb ‘22 and I can’t believe I’ve gotten so lucky to have a professional, wise, and nurturing therapist on my first try. Renee handles our appointments with ease and makes me feel comfortable. This woman has spoken so much life into me and I recommend her any chance I get!!

Renee is really dedicated to helping people on their journey of healing! You aren’t just a client for her. She tailors your sessions to what you need and she makes sure she understands which issue you want help with to give you the best level of care. As long as you keep showing up she will help you with the rest!

Renee has been such a blessing to me. It’s clear that she is very knowledgeable about therapeutic needs for her clients. We’ve had open and honest conversations. I would describe her treatment as holistic. She takes time to work through whatever issues you are dealing with.

By far thee best practice of choice! Renee is amazing and it genuinely shows this is what she is supposed to be doing on her path of life!! I’ve resolved issues that felt unsolvable on my own and with other counselors. Very grateful for her services!

I was very apprehensive about starting therapy, not because I didn't need it but because I was used to trying to figure out my issue but I have no regrets choosing Renee as my therapist. She is great at what she does, knowledgeable, relatable, and she meets you where you are at and holds space for you to process your thoughts and emotions, while guiding you.
We've begun adding EMDR to my sessions. This was my first experience with EMDR and i didn't know quite what to expect. It seemed to good to be true. I can say the results have been great and is an added benefit to my talk therapy. I'm able to process, come to a resolution, get in tune within myself, some things, stuck emotions, and even traumas I have been struggling with. EMDR under Renee has proven to work for me and has allowed me to dig deep and work some stuff out and make peace with myself.
