About Rhonda
Rhonda McEntire is a Florida LMHC with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, and life transitions. Rhonda helps people who feel overwhelmed by change or who struggle with persistent worry and low mood.
She focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions. That can include short behavioral experiments, clearer ways to notice thoughts, and small routines that reduce daily stress. Sessions emphasize what a person wants to address next and ways to move toward those goals.
Rhonda also brings attention to issues that often sit behind current problems. These include family of origin struggles, codependency, grief after divorce or separation, and feelings of emptiness or guilt. She supports people working through adoption and foster care histories, fatherhood concerns, and questions tied to gender dysphoria.
Her work includes helping people cope with chronic pain, illness, or disability and with drug and alcohol addiction. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused steps are used to make change more manageable. Mindfulness practices and DBT skills are introduced when they fit a person’s needs.
Rhonda describes her overall style as client-centered. That means attention to each person’s strengths and to building straightforward tools. People who prefer steady, practical guidance about next steps tend to respond well to this approach.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Rhonda combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in ways that translate well to remote sessions. Client-centered work focuses on what matters most to the person, listening to goals and adjusting support to fit those aims. CBT offers clear, step-by-step techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which people can practice between meetings. Mindfulness involves simple attention and breathing practices that help reduce reactivity and increase calm in tense social moments.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rhonda will discuss different methods and decide together which ones feel most useful for each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative choice guides how sessions are structured and what homework or skills are suggested.
The therapist’s biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Online work can make it easier to practice skills in everyday settings and follow up with written reminders or summaries between meetings.
