How Rhonda's Approaches Work Online
Rhonda integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR into her online practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing helps people process traumatic memories so those memories cause less distress in daily life.She also draws on client-centered and emotionally focused ideas to build a trusting working relationship. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals and try methods that match the client's needs and preferences, adjusting as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work for brief check-ins, skill coaching, or when scheduling a longer session is difficult. These options make therapy more flexible for people managing busy days or mobility limits.
