Rhonda Cox

Rhonda Cox is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with more than 21 years in mental health care. She welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, grief, or big changes. Rhonda uses straightforward, calm guidance to help people find practical steps forward.

Rhonda began working in mental health in 1999 across psychiatric units and community outpatient centers. Since 2013 she has maintained a private practice where she continues to support people who need steady, nonjudgmental help. Her background includes long experience with mood issues, trauma and abuse, ADHD, parenting strain, and burnout-related concerns like compassion fatigue.

Her work draws on several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and change behavior. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for strengths and small steps that create forward motion. Mindfulness practices are used to calm the body and reduce reactivity.

Sessions aim to be practical and goal-oriented. Rhonda emphasizes clear next steps, skill building, and realistic plans people can use between meetings. She also offers space to process deeper issues such as loss, abandonment, and relationship problems.

Rhonda practices in South Carolina and meets people in English. People who are interested start by completing a short questionnaire and scheduling sessions according to her availability. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Approaches you can use in online therapy

Rhonda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thinking patterns that increase stress or anger and practice different responses. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can try concrete changes that often reduce symptoms.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach attention and breathing techniques that lower reactivity and improve sleeping and mood. Mindfulness work is simple to practice between sessions and helps with anxiety, panic, and emotional ups and downs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rhonda will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She adjusts pace and techniques based on what is helpful, combining skill work with deeper discussions when needed.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find it straightforward to practice CBT exercises and mindfulness between sessions when therapy fits into regular routines.
