Sadie Renander , LPC, LMHP

Sadie Renander is a licensed mental health practitioner based in Nebraska who brings a thoughtful, person-centered approach to therapy. She holds the credentials LPC and LMHP - Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Practitioner - and completed a Master of Science in Family and Youth Services with a Clinical Counseling emphasis at Bellevue University in 2012.

Her clinical work spans residential, outpatient, in-home, and hospital settings, with substantial experience supporting children and families facing trauma, abuse, relationship conflict, depression, anxiety, and other life challenges. She emphasizes practical, evidence-informed methods and specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Trust-Based Relational Intervention, while remaining flexible to use other techniques when they better match a person or family's needs.

Sadie’s style is rooted in empathy and connection; she approaches therapy as a collaborative process that begins with learning about each person’s unique situation and goals. She partners with clients to set measurable steps toward change, helping them build coping skills, repair relationships, and navigate transitions. Her focus on respectful, tailored care aims to create a therapeutic plan that fits the individual rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all solution.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Sadie integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based approaches to address emotional and relational difficulties. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and connection, exploring patterns formed in early caregiving to support healing from attachment injuries, family challenges, and issues related to adoption or foster care.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sadie works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made and new priorities emerge. Licensed professionals and therapists guide that selection together with the client so the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Sadie is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support without travel, allow for shorter or more frequent check-ins when helpful, and accommodate busy families, caregivers, and people living in rural areas.
