About Rhonda
Rhonda Cox is a licensed professional counselor with more than two decades of experience in mental health care. She greets people with a calm, encouraging approach and offers straightforward help for worries like anxiety, stress, depression, grief, and ADHD. She aims to make early steps feel manageable for someone worried or uncertain.
Rhonda trained as a non-traditional student and has worked in psychiatric units, community mental health centers, and in independent practice since 2013.
Background and approach
Her background spans many settings, so she is familiar with both short-term and longer-term needs. She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people find relief and make changes that last. In sessions she focuses on clear goals and useful steps.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to create small, doable changes and Trauma-Focused approaches when past hurts are central to current problems. Rhonda believes the best work is collaborative.
She listens for each person's strengths and builds on them. She offers guidance, coaching, and gentle encouragement while helping people practice new skills between sessions. Clients can expect a direct but warm style and a steady focus on practical progress.
Rhonda works with concerns including relationships, parenting stress, sleep problems, mood disorders, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. Her practice operates out of South Carolina and sessions are offered in English.
Practical approaches for online counseling and real-life change
Rhonda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thinking patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and mood regulation because it breaks problems into manageable steps and skills to practice.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to help people learn present-moment awareness and stress reduction techniques. Mindfulness can support better sleep, calmer reactions, and a clearer view of difficult feelings. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone is unsure about change; it helps clarify personal goals and find motivation to try new behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rhonda will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what the person needs and prefers. This collaborative process helps identify which tools fit best for ADHD, trauma, mood concerns, or life transitions.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier with low bandwidth, live chat works for quick check-ins, and messaging is useful for short updates or ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
