About Rhonda

Rhonda Cox is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. She brings a calm, encouraging presence and invites people to take the first step toward clearer goals and better daily functioning.

Rhonda has worked in mental health since 1999 across psychiatric units, outpatient community mental health centers, and her private practice established in 2013. Her background includes long-term clinical experience supporting people through trauma, panic, mood disorders, sleep problems, and caregiver strain. She draws on 21 years of clinical practice and a history of varied settings to guide her work.

In session she uses straightforward methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies to help people identify patterns and try concrete changes. Mindfulness tools and trauma-focused work are also part of her approach when those fit the client's needs. She aims for practical steps that can be tested between meetings.

Rhonda emphasizes a nonjudgmental, gentle style that encourages growth and resilience. She describes therapy as a process of setting goals, practicing new skills, and returning for adjustments as life changes. Clients who want clear steps and steady support may find this approach useful.

Her office practice reflects long-term clinical work with individuals facing complex life events, from abandonment and codependency to career transitions and compassion fatigue. People interested in starting are asked to complete a brief matching questionnaire to find a good fit and schedule sessions based on availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Rhonda commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises people can use to manage stress and improve sleep.

She also uses elements of motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods to help clients set clear goals and take practical steps. Motivational interviewing supports finding personal reasons to change, while solution-focused work narrows attention to what is working and builds on small successes. Together these approaches give options for both short-term goals and deeper trauma-focused work when needed.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist will collaborate to match methods to a client's needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying approaches, checking how they feel, and adjusting plans as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions can be scheduled around work or family tasks. Licensed professionals can adapt tools like mindfulness exercises and behavioral tasks to remote sessions to support steady progress.
