About Rene
Rene Jourdan, LCPC, draws on an integrative, person-centered approach to help adults and families navigate complex mental health challenges. With 11 years of clinical experience, she blends cognitive-behavioral strategies with acceptance and attachment-informed techniques to build practical skills and emotional insight.
Background and approach
Her practice emphasizes empathy and collaboration, helping clients identify values, manage symptoms, and move toward meaningful change while honoring each person’s lived experience. Rene has an extensive background in crisis response and addiction services, including more than five years providing support via the North Idaho Crisis Line and leadership roles supervising family support and substance use programs.
She currently manages a substance use disorder program and offers both individual and group addiction treatment, incorporating evidence-based group models such as coping skills training and the Matrix Model. Her clinical work often addresses co-occurring conditions, trauma-related concerns, mood difficulties, and everyday stressors including relationship issues, grief, and career-related strain.
Licensed in Idaho (LCPC), Rene works with clients using a range of therapeutic methods tailored to each person’s goals and challenges. She aims to create a compassionate space where practical interventions meet thoughtful exploration, supporting clients as they develop coping tools and pursue healthier patterns of living.
Approach-Focused Online Care and Flexible Session Options
Rene often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify their values and take action in ways that align with what matters most, and she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical coping skills. ACT emphasizes mindful acceptance and committed action for issues like anxiety, depression, and life transitions, while CBT targets patterns of thinking and behavior that sustain symptoms and offers structured techniques to change them.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rene partners with each client to determine which methods and interventions fit their goals, symptoms, and preferences, and she adapts plans over time as progress and needs evolve. This collaborative stance helps tailor treatment to address concerns such as trauma, addiction, mood disorders, or ADHD-related challenges without assuming a single method will suit everyone.
Online therapy with Rene is offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide accessibility and scheduling flexibility. These options make it easier for people to attend regular sessions, remain engaged between meetings, and continue work on coping skills and behavioral changes from diverse locations and life circumstances.
