What to expect when you start therapy with Rhonda.
When you attend our first session, I will welcome you and together we will get to know one another. I will ask a series of basic questions about your life, childhood, and current struggles. You can answer what you are comfortable with and skip anything you do not want to answer. This will give me an overview of who you are and what you have experienced in life. You are welcome to ask me anything you would like to know. If you are ready, we can discuss therapy goals and what you would like to get out of our sessions.
In our second session, going at a pace you feel comfortable, we will begin a deeper dive into your concerns. I will work to understand, really understand, what you are going through.
As we continue working together, we will explore the path that will help you increase understanding of yourself, learn new tools for managing symptoms, and begin to process and heal the wounds troubling you. I will describe the techniques I use and ask for feedback to find what works best for you. If something is not working we will pivot until we find what is effective for you.
My style is collaborative and client-centered, I see myself as a companion on your journey offering steady and compassionate support as we navigate the challenges you face. You will have a judgment-free space where all parts of you are welcome, and where healing can unfold at your pace.
My role is to offer a steading presence, a safe haven, and new tools to help you find your footing and move forward with purpose. Whether you're standing at a crossroads or scaling a difficult emotional summit, I’m here to support your climb—one step, one breath, one breakthrough at a time.
