About Rhonda
Rhonda Cox is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, grief, and mood concerns. She brings 21 years of experience and a calm, nonjudgmental approach. She speaks English and practices from South Carolina as an LPC and an LCPC.
Her work is straightforward and practical. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. She also draws on mindfulness techniques to slow down intense feelings and on solution-focused strategies to set short-term, concrete goals.
Background and approach
Rhonda’s background includes work in psychiatric units, outpatient community mental health centers, and a independent practice she opened in 2013. That mix means she has seen both crisis situations and steady, long-term challenges. She describes her style as encouraging, gentle, and unbiased.
Sessions typically focus on immediate problems and skills that can be used between meetings. Parents who contact her often want help with sleep problems, managing anger, or balancing caregiving with other duties. She also offers coaching-style conversations for career decisions and life changes.
Rhonda aims to collaborate with each person on practical next steps. She pays attention to what is working, adjusts plans when needed, and supports people as they try new ways of coping and communicating.

How her approaches fit into online care
Rhonda commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice thought patterns and test different behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, mood issues, sleep problems, and parenting-related stress because it focuses on clear steps and practice between sessions. She also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach attention and breathing skills that reduce overwhelm and help people respond rather than react. Mindfulness techniques work well for stress, anger, and caring for someone with ongoing needs.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try strategies that fit those aims. If one way of working isn’t helping, she adjusts the plan and tries other techniques together with the client.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations for skills practice, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, chat is good for quick check-ins, and messaging supports brief reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to work on goals while balancing work, family, and caregiving responsibilities.
