About Rhonda
Rhonda Rittenhouse is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with 13 years of experience. She helps adults who are dealing with relationship strain, family stress, grief, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, anger, sleep problems, and life changes.
Rhonda explains that many concerns have more than one layer. She listens for the pieces that are linked - emotions, behaviors, and practical pressures - and then works with people to address those parts. Sessions focus on concrete steps people can try between meetings as well as clearer ways to think about problems that repeat.
Her work draws on cognitive behavioral ideas alongside solution-focused methods. That means she uses strategies to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors while also identifying small, achievable changes that move a situation forward. She describes matching the kind of therapy to the person rather than using a single approach for everyone.
Rhonda has experience with end-of-life and hospice concerns, caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, blended family dynamics, fertility and pregnancy related needs, chronic illness and pain, veteran and armed forces issues, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people coping with career changes and questions about life purpose.
People who meet with Rhonda can expect straightforward planning and regular check-ins on progress. She asks clients to set practical steps and then reviews what worked and what needs adjusting. To begin, readers are encouraged to confirm session options and schedule the first appointment through the site's online process.
How sessions work
How her approaches guide online sessions
Rhonda uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients notice and change thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, anger, or sleep problems. CBT offers practical exercises and behavioral experiments that can be tried between sessions to test what helps.She also uses solution-focused methods that aim for specific, achievable steps. This approach focuses on small changes and the client's existing strengths to move a difficult situation forward in measurable ways.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rhonda will collaborate with each person to decide whether cognitive behavioral methods, solution-focused steps, or a mix is most useful based on needs and goals. She checks progress and adjusts plans as sessions continue.
The practical benefits of doing this work online include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping continuity when life is hectic. The site requires choosing online options before booking, so confirm which session formats are offered for her practice when you complete the matching questionnaire. Online sessions can make it easier to do short check-ins, schedule regular times outside work hours, or use exercises between meetings to keep momentum.
