Renee Fagan, LCSW, Life Coach
My name is Renee Fagan and I look forward to working with you. I have been a psychotherapist for over 35 years as well as a Board Certified Coach and Retirement Coach. I earned my Masters from NYU and have extensive post-graduate training in multiple modalities such as EMDR, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, and EFT to name a few.
When I meet with someone who is struggling, I have a toolbox of skills that we can utilize to create change, relief from emotional anguish, and hope for the future. My style is eclectic and collaborative; I blend my psychodynamic and coaching skills so that we co-create a relationship based on deeper understanding, trust, and a realistic plan to move forward. I’m a good listener and I believe that bringing humor, education, and life experience into our work makes it warm and real.
I primarily work with adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and life transitions such as divorce, moving, the death of someone dear, the emotional aspects of illness, and relationship issues. I also specialize in helping people transition into retirement whether it’s years down the road or currently at hand. We are living in turbulent, unpredictable times and even the most confident, positive person can feel anxious and ungrounded. In the age of iphones and post-Covid we are more disconnected and alone with our thoughts and fears. I look forward to working with you and helping you create a more empowered and positive life.
