About Daphney
Dr. Daphney Rene is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with thirty years of experience. She is licensed in New York as an LCSW and in Alabama as an LICSW, and she practices from New Jersey. Her main areas include grief, parenting challenges, anger, depression, and ADHD.
She focuses on practical help. Sessions look at what is getting in the way day to day. She helps people develop coping strategies and clearer routines. Conversations are grounded and goal-oriented.
Her background spans many care settings over three decades. That experience includes work with people facing abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, aging and geriatric issues, and attachment difficulties. She has also supported people dealing with cancer, chronic pain, disability, and caregiver stress.
Dr. Rene draws on several well-known clinical approaches in her work. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift unhelpful patterns. She also incorporates Client-Centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies to improve communication and emotional regulation.
In sessions she listens for practical changes that fit a person’s life and responsibilities. She helps break larger problems into small, manageable steps. People leave with specific tools to practice between meetings and clearer plans for what to try next.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in remote work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that matter. It can be useful for grief, depression, and ongoing frustration when avoidance has become a pattern.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and to build new routines that reduce symptoms like low mood or anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and pick methods that fit. That collaboration lets goals change as progress is made.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce commuting time, and allow short check-ins when schedules are tight. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require being on camera, which can make conversations simpler depending on a person’s day-to-day needs.
