About Rene
Rene Lujan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 27 years of experience. He focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem, and mood concerns. He brings calm, direct support to people who want clear steps to feel better.
Rene uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations and find what works for each person. He listens for patterns in thoughts, behavior, and relationships and helps people try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-focused while still allowing time to process strong emotions. He has experience with a wide range of concerns, including bipolar disorder, personality challenges, attachment and abandonment issues, and difficulties that follow trauma. He also has a background supporting military service members and veterans with anxiety, depression, and adjustment struggles.
That experience informs his calm, practical style. Rene makes room for people to talk through anger and control issues without judgment. He helps clients build strategies for communication, stress management, and steadying mood swings.
Work often includes skill practice between sessions so changes carry into daily life. Sessions are offered in English and delivered remotely by video call, phone, chat, or text messaging. The process to begin is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy button.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Care
Rene draws on established, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and building practical coping skills. One common approach helps people identify negative thinking and replace it with more balanced thoughts to reduce anxiety and defuse anger. Another approach emphasizes learning and practicing concrete skills for emotion regulation, stress management, and communication to improve everyday functioning.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rene works with each person to match techniques to their goals, current problems, and personal preferences. He will adjust the plan over time based on what helps most and what feels achievable for the client.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together: video calls for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions when a call is easier, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text messaging for ongoing support and reminders. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, practice skills between meetings, and use the format that best supports steady progress.
