Therapy That Actually Does Something

I help you break old patterns, say what you mean, and reconnect with the people who matter most.

I get it. Relationships are hard.

I'm not here to just listen and nod sympathetically. (You can get that from your friends.) 

I'm here to help you change the patterns that keep you stuck, disconnected, and cycling through the same fights on repeat.

As a marriage and family therapist, certified sex therapist, and experienced business leader, I’ll help you build the skills you need to create more meaningful and fulfilling relationships.

Renée Divine might sound like a make-believe name, but it's real and belongs to a real live person. Me.

I became a therapist after a few decades of working in finance, human resources, and software advisory services. I've always been fascinated by how we connect as humans and how we can do it better.

I'm grounded and pragmatic, yet irrepressibly optimistic. I ask tough questions. I'm authentic, caring, and compassionately direct. With me, you will get reality with a strong dose of empathy.

Being relational in Minnesota is haaard.

Most of us weren't given the permission or tools to actually feel our emotions and express them. (Thanks, Minnesota Nice.) But that can change. I see folks working on it every day with real success. My clients are finding more connection with themselves and the people they love.

When you work with me, you’ll:

Figure out why you keep doing the one thing you swore you'd stop doing. (Spoiler: it's not because you're broken.)

Learn to say what you mean without starting World War III in your living room.

Get practical tools that will help you actually practice doing things differently.

Talk about sex and intimacy openly and honestly, without judgment or shame.

Exhausted from feeling disconnected? 

When our relationships aren't working, everything feels harder. It doesn’t have to be that way.

  • "She does not miss a beat. Every session felt seamless. She knew exactly where we'd left off. She'd recall little details and be like, 'But you said this...'"
