About Rhonda
Rhonda Robertson is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction challenges, relationship strain, trauma, and parenting concerns. She speaks plainly and listens closely so people feel heard. The work in sessions is practical and aimed at small, manageable changes.
Rhonda values steadiness and empathy while people find their footing. Rhonda uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice emotions without getting stuck and reconnect with what matters to them. Her sessions are client-centered, which means the person’s goals guide the pace and focus. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set clear, short-term goals and track progress between visits.
For those affected by trauma, she brings trauma-focused methods that prioritize safety and slow, steady work. Rhonda has four years of professional experience as an LMFT. She supports people working through grief, postpartum depression, body image and identity concerns, ADHD-related struggles, and multicultural or immigration-related stress.
She also addresses caregiver strain, codependency, and family of origin issues. Therapy sessions can happen by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging, giving options for different needs. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the person’s routine.

How Rhonda’s approaches work online
Rhonda commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice and accept difficult feelings while taking steps toward the values that matter to them.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and personal style. Sessions start by identifying what matters most and then trying practical strategies together to see what fits.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break during the day. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to check in between meetings or have brief, focused exchanges when that format feels most useful.
