"Turning Trauma into Transformations"
Renee Cage-Watson, LCSW
LCS#79734
WELCOME,
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Life Coach and owner of Empowered by Courage Counseling in San Leandro, CA. I have been working with children, adolescents, families and adults since 1995 and have a diverse training that includes conventional methods and approaches of psychotherapy, health, healing and transformation. I have a BA in Sociology from CSU Hayward ‘97, MSW from UC Berkeley ‘01 and I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have helped clients with an array of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship issues, trauma, as well as coaching driven women to achieve their goals.
My life’s journey and own healing has led me to do this work. I have a passion for working with adolescents, adults, and couples who have suffered from past traumas, challenging childhood experiences and experiencing relationship disconnect. Some of the approaches that I utilize are; Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, interpersonal, and psychodynamic. I also utilize mindfulness-based practices for alleviating stress, anxiety, anger, manage symptoms of depression, and promote self-care and self-compassion as a way for my clients to feel more centered and grounded in their lives. I am equipped to provide video tele-behavioral health services.
My counseling style is supportive but firm. I believe that therapy is a personal time for you and it is a time for growth and exploration. To achieve the goals that you set for yourself, there will be times that will be uncomfortable, but in the end, it will be worth it. Are you tired from carrying the residual effects of past events? Are you ready to turn trauma into a transformation?
Smiling again, being less worried, doing and enjoying what you love, experiencing improved communication between you and your loved ones……. These successes are what Empowered by Courage Counseling stands for.
I look forward to you being Empowered by YOUR COURAGE!
