About Rhonda
Rhonda Rittenhouse is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Florida. She focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside relationship, grief, anger, stress, anxiety, sleep problems, self-esteem, depression, ADHD, and life changes. Her tone is practical and direct, aimed at parents and caregivers who need clear steps and steady support.
She blends practical tools with listening. Rhonda uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and shift actions.
Background and approach
She also uses solution-focused methods to set small, achievable goals and track progress. Sessions aim to be concrete and manageable rather than abstract or overwhelming. Rhonda brings 13 years of clinical experience to sessions.
Her background includes work with families, individuals, incarcerated people, court-ordered family education, and extensive involvement with end-of-life counseling. That history informs her approach to caregiver stress, hospice and hospice-related concerns, and blended family dynamics. Her style is collaborative.
She works alongside clients to pick a plan that fits family life and daily demands. Typical steps include identifying immediate priorities, practicing skills between meetings, and reviewing measurable progress over time. She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, and works in English.
Rhonda describes therapy as a tailored process and aims to help people find practical ways to manage tough moments and move toward clearer routines and relationships.
How Rhonda Uses Practical Approaches Online
Rhonda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts that lead to stress or unhelpful actions and then practice different responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing stress. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and build on what is already working in daily life. That approach helps when a family wants quick, concrete changes and visible steps forward.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rhonda partners with people to choose methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques as progress is reviewed so the plan stays practical and realistic for family routines.
Online sessions through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules. These options allow for flexible timing, quick check-ins between meetings, and continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult. The variety of formats supports different comfort levels and helps families try techniques in real time at home.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
