Meet Renee Triller, LPC

I understand how overwhelming life can feel at times.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, body image issues, or the weight of past trauma, it's exhausting to carry these burdens alone. I know it can feel like you're stuck in a never-ending cycle, where the heaviness of emotions, the anxiety about the future, or the pain of unhealed wounds often take over. I’ve worked with many people who feel like they're running on empty, trying to manage intense emotions or grappling with identity struggles.

You’re not alone in this journey.

I specialize in helping people work through anxiety, depression, panic disorders, PTSD, and body dysmorphia. I’m also passionate about working with neurodiverse individuals and those navigating the challenges of living with ADHD, autism, and other neurodivergent conditions. I’m also deeply committed to supporting the LGBTQ+ community. I offer a safe, affirming environment where you can talk freely and work through these issues without fear of judgment.

If you're struggling with how to navigate relationships, emotional overwhelm, or life transitions, I can help you develop the tools to manage these complexities and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Who I Help

My personal and professional experience has enabled me to specialize in serving adults with a wide variety of needs.

Adults Navigating Life's Challenges

Life is full of changes, and sometimes we need a little extra support to navigate them. I help adults facing:

• Anxiety, Panic Attacks, OCD

• Depression and grief

• Traumatic Experiences

• Major life changes (marriage, divorce, kids, career change)

• Challenges in relationships

• Caring for aging parents

• ADHD or Autism spectrum

• Complicated family dynamics

Teens & Young Adults

Young adulthood can be tumultuous times. I support students and young adults dealing with:

• Academic and/or social stressors

• ADHD

• Family conflicts

• Identity exploration and self-esteem issues

• Future planning anxieties

• Depression

• Traumatic experiences

• Peer and romantic relationships

LGTBQ+ Therapy

Whether you're just beginning to explore your identity or have been out for years, therapy can provide a safe space to process:

• Identity or gender exploration

• Coming out

• Family and cultural dynamics

• Internalized stigma

• Dating & relationships

• Minority stress

• Discrimination or traumatic experiences

My Approach

My approach to therapy is holistic, meaning I look at the whole you — not just the symptoms you're dealing with. I’m here to help you understand the root causes of your challenges, whether it's anxiety that makes even small tasks feel impossible, or past trauma that keeps you stuck in patterns that don’t serve you anymore.

We’ll take the time to explore your unique experiences and emotional landscape, so you can start to rebuild your sense of self and relationships in a way that feels authentic and healthy.

One of the things I bring to my work is a deep understanding of attachment theory. This approach helps us explore how your early relationships have shaped how you connect with others today. If you find yourself in cycles of unhealthy relationships or struggling with emotional regulation, understanding your attachment style can be incredibly eye-opening. It allows us to uncover patterns and work together to create healthier, more secure connections with both yourself and others.

My goal is to empower you to not just cope with life’s challenges, but to truly thrive.

I also value the use of evidence-based techniques like DBT, CBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy. These approaches create real, long lasting change using proven and practical tools. If you're ready to explore your emotions, improve your relationships, or find balance in your life, I’m here to walk alongside you. Let’s work together to unlock your potential and help you achieve the life you want!

What insurance do you take?

Mainly Aetna and United. We offer affordable private pay rates and will provide you with a superbill that you can submit for reimbursement (using your out of network benefits, if you have them).

How did you come to realize this was a profession you wanted to pursue?

My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep fascination with human behavior and psychology. My own transformative experience with therapy as a young person showed me firsthand how powerful it can be to have someone truly listen and help navigate life's challenges.

Despite being told it might be a difficult career path, I knew this was my calling. I've always believed that understanding leads to healing, and I'm passionate about creating the same supportive, transformative space for others that once helped me grow and thrive.

Can you tell me more about your educational and professional background?

I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Counseling from Albertus Magnus College and a degree in Psychological Science from the University of Vermont. My experience spans private practice and college counseling at Wesleyan University, giving me a broad perspective on supporting clients through various life stages and challenges.

I'm particularly excited about the intersection of mental health with holistic wellness, including nutrition and animal-assisted therapy. My diverse background allows me to adapt my approach to each client's unique needs, drawing from both traditional and innovative therapeutic methods.

What makes you relatable to clients?

I believe in bringing my authentic self to therapy while maintaining professional boundaries. When I'm not in session, you might find me hiking with my rescue dog Duchess (a charming chocolate lab/basset hound mix), practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu (where I've earned my blue belt with two stripes), or tending to my collection of unique plants that make my home feel like a peaceful rainforest.

I'm also an outdoor enthusiast who loves camping, and yes, I occasionally need to binge-watch Lord of the Rings and Jurassic Park – because sometimes self-care looks like a movie marathon!

What is your approach to therapy and how do you work with clients?

I firmly believe that you are the expert of your own life, and my role is to provide skilled guidance, evidence-based tools, and unwavering support on your journey. In our first few sessions, we'll work together to understand your unique story and create meaningful, achievable goals. I create a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly, knowing you're truly heard and supported.

What sets my approach apart is the combination of emotional validation with practical skill-building. We'll work at your pace, and I'll help you recognize when you're ready to move forward independently. I measure success by your ability to confidently use the tools we've developed together in your daily life – whether that's managing emotions more effectively, communicating with confidence, or maintaining healthy boundaries.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

You'll gain a comprehensive set of practical skills tailored to your specific needs, including:

• Powerful emotion regulation techniques

• Effective communication strategies

• Conflict resolution tools that work in real-world situations

• Healthy boundary-setting practices

• Enhanced cognitive skills for managing challenging thoughts

• A personalized self-care toolkit that grows with you

Most importantly, you'll gain these skills in an environment where you feel truly understood, supported, and empowered to create lasting positive change in your life.

She is a wonderful, supportive therapist. She provides a safe and comfortable place for me to work on myself.

-Current Client

I can see how the conversations that I have in therapy impact the choices I make outside of therapy. I have changed how I talk to myself in a positive way. It has made a positive impact on my relationships.
