Renee Belew-Dycus, LCSW, brings a deep commitment to service shaped by early work with individuals experiencing homelessness, supporting job readiness, housing stability, emotional regulation, and self-esteem. She later served as a supervisor within Los Angeles County Mental Health, overseeing long-term locked psychiatric facilities and ensuring high-quality, standards-based care. Since opening her private practice in 2007, Renee has devoted her work to trauma and PTSD, Autism Spectrum and ADHD support, transgender and LGBTQ+ clients, and individuals seeking clarity and direction at any stage of life.

Renee is not a “one-size-fits-all” therapist. She works creatively and collaboratively, offering tools gathered over years of practice while honoring each client’s autonomy. Rather than assigning homework or giving directives, she invites exploration and reflection to discover what truly fits. She believes clients often already hold the answers they seek, and her role is to help them recognize and trust their inner wisdom. Above all, she prioritizes emotional safety.

In the first session, Renee allows clients to set the pace and focus, creating space to assess comfort and connection. Clients are invited to share their reasons for seeking therapy, goals, and past therapy experiences. From there, Renee and the client collaboratively develop a treatment plan and work together as a team throughout the therapeutic process.
