Dr Renee M. Winters, PhD, MFTMarriage & Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT

About

I practice from two different modalities: Reality Therapy and Insight Therapy. Reality Therapy (Choice-Centered approach) helps the patient determine how effective their behaviors have been in fulfilling their needs and then works with the patient to determine a plan for more effective actions. Insight Therapy encourages empowerment of the individual which implies personal responsibility for one's behavior. I specialize in working with patients needing assistance with Anger Management, Marital/Premarital Counseling, Individual/Adolescent Counseling, Loss & Bereavement Recovery, Sexual Addiction/Recovery, Personal Growth & Enrichment, and Divorce Healing. I also possess knowledge in understanding acute mental illness symptoms from my training at Riverside Psyciatric Hospital. Education- PhD from Pacifica Graduate Institute in Depth Psychology: emphasis in enriching the understanding of mind, body, unconscious & dreams. MA in Marriage & Family Therapy/University of Phoenix & BA in Sociology/University of California, Riverside. Additional certificates: Domestic Violence, Anger Management & Sexual Addiction.
