About Rhonda
Rhonda Palmer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Missouri with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship patterns, self-esteem struggles, life transitions, addictions, parenting strain, and ADHD. Sessions are framed around practical steps and honest conversation to help clients notice patterns that keep them stuck.
Rhonda focuses on how attachment and relationship history shape current choices. She helps people recognize when they put others first to their own cost and supports clearer boundaries and steadier responses. Conversations are direct and practical, with attention to how feelings, thoughts, and behavior interact.
Her style draws on attachment-based approaches, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused methods, and mindfulness practices. That mix is used to identify repetitive patterns, test small changes, and practice different ways of relating to self and others. Expect a blend of talking, skill practice, and noticing real-life reactions.
Rhonda asks for active participation. She looks for honesty, curiosity, and a willingness to try new responses between sessions. Therapy can include looking at family of origin issues, codependency patterns, abandonment wounds, communication problems, and grief or end-of-life concerns when those topics come up.
She offers services in English from Missouri and does not take international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice habitual responses. Online sessions can guide someone to recognize how old attachment wounds shape current reactions and practice new ways of relating in everyday life. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and can name their next steps. In online meetings this often means time for open conversation and focused feedback to clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises. Through CBT the therapist and client identify unhelpful thinking, try small behavior changes, and track what shifts.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust as needed. Finding what helps usually happens over a few sessions rather than all at once.
The original biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also makes it simpler to keep continuity when schedules change. Licensed professionals can adapt the same practical exercises they use in person to an online setting, practicing new responses between sessions and checking progress together.
