About Treneva

Treneva Butler is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas who supports people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, addiction, and trauma.

Background and approach

She draws on five years of clinical experience to help clients explore patterns of thought and behavior, build coping skills, and pursue clearer goals for day-to-day functioning and long-term growth. Treneva integrates practical strategies with attention to the emotional and motivational forces that shape change.

Her practice blends evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and client-centered care to tailor interventions to each person. She also draws from motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when appropriate, helping clients consider history and meaning alongside concrete steps forward.

Treneva works with concerns ranging from eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and anger, to identity-related stress, ADHD, and grief, and she attends to related themes like guilt, shame, multicultural concerns, and life purpose. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on developing skills clients can use beyond the therapy hour.

Treneva offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences and schedules.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Treneva commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering structured techniques useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday challenges. She also employs Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and building a strong therapeutic relationship so clients can explore goals at their own pace. Mindfulness Therapy is used to cultivate present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, supporting work on stress, grief, and emotion regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Treneva will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful in sessions, and she may combine methods to meet evolving needs rather than use a single fixed approach.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing work around busy schedules and geographic limits. These formats make it easier to practice skills between sessions, check in more frequently when needed, and maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change.
