About Rhonda
Rhonda Piazza is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and grief. She brings 23 years of clinical experience and a calm, respectful manner to each session. Rhonda believes clients have strengths to build on rather than things that need to be fixed.
She uses a person-centered way of working. That means she listens first and follows what matters to the client.
Background and approach
Sessions often include practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Motivational interviewing is used when people want to shift habits or face addiction concerns. Rhonda also brings trauma-focused strategies when people have histories of abuse or post-traumatic stress.
She adapts techniques to fit each person rather than using one fixed method. This flexible approach helps with relationship struggles, intimacy questions, and work or career transitions. Clients may explore family of origin issues, codependency, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
She can provide guidance around first responder issues, hospice and end-of-life matters, postpartum concerns, and multicultural issues. Career assessments like the MBTI, Skill Scan, and Self-Directed Search are available for people focused on work direction. Rhonda aims to help people identify choices that match their values and move toward goals.
She supports the gradual, practical steps needed to make changes. If someone is ready to begin, she helps them plan the next steps and offers steady encouragement along the way.
How Rhonda Uses Approaches Online
Rhonda blends person-centered work with practical methods to help people make changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client's priorities so sessions reflect what matters most to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers short, practical techniques to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is helpful for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.Deciding which approach to use is a team process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the person's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face even when they are in different places. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can support brief updates, skill practice, or ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and let the person choose what works best.
