I have been to therapy several times in my life. Rhonda is the only therapist I have felt comfortable enough with, to completely open up to. I have told her things that I have never said out loud, even to myself. She is such a fantastic listener and just gets me. She has wonderful responses to my situation and gives real life comparisons. Rhonda is so easy to talk with and has helped me so much. I have a lot further to go, however, she has changed my life.

Since my brother has died a few years ago, I have had 4 different therapist/councilors and Rhonda is the only one that I felt like really fought for me. Not just responded to what I said, or tried to guide me in her narrative. She has been unbelievably understanding and patient! She has a gift of being able to relate but knowing when not to. Knowing when I need someone to relate and knowing when I need someone to simply sympathize.

Written on Apr 08, 2024 after therapy with Rhonda for 2 months on issues concerning family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, and compassion fatigue
This is my first time doing therapy, and I never expected it to go this well at all. If you happen to get Rhonda as your therapist, I consider you very lucky.
Rhonda is incredible. She’s Very knowledgeable and it feels more so you’re venting about life with your best friend and that’s really nice to have. She sits down and is willing to have a heart to heart conversation with you and just listen to your story, and if you want her opinion on a situation or person, she doesn’t beat around the bush and gives you her opinion. She asks sophisticated questions that make you think and reflect deeply. She doesn’t act or ask robot therapist questions. To summarize Rhonda is a genuinely good person trying to help others through their struggles. I wouldn’t have made it this far through my process if it wasn’t for her.
Thank you for an amazing experience through this journey so far Rhonda. You’re a rock star!!!

A year ago today I started therapy. I signed up on BetterHelp. I was completely lost in life. I was in such a dark place and didn’t know how to get out of it. I matched with my therapist and I immediately used all the tools possible. I journaled to her right away. Paragraphs about my life. I will never forget the first day we talked. I cried for almost the whole hour we talked. I am genuinely a happy person but was so lost. I needed to find myself again. My therapist Rhonda is hands down the ABSOLUTE best. I wouldn’t be where I am today without her. I owe her everything. She has helped me tremendously. She pushed me when I needed to be, she’s hyped me up, she’s called me out and always had my best interest. I found my happiness and realized my self worth. I have overcome things I never thought I could. I have learned so many tools to help me move forward in life. I am thankful for BetterHelp. This has allowed me to be matched with Rhonda who has absolutely changed my life for the better. Rhonda deserves the absolute world. I am forever grateful for her.
Again and I mean it. THE BEST THERAPIST.

Rhonda is the most attentive, caring, and understanding person I’ve talked to. She truly WANTS to help me and is ALWAYS there when I need her. Anytime I am having troubles and message her to talk about it she is always right there, giving me advice or talking me down from my anxiety. She’s always on time to our appointments and ready to hear about what I have going on. I would recommend her to anyone.

Rhonda is honestly the most thoughtful, kind and caring! When I first joined better help I was matched with a therapist that would not respond and I’m so glad I changed my therapist because then I was matched with Rhonda! She had no open spots so I messaged her and right away I got a reply of her telling me when she has any availability. Rhonda went out of her way to message me time availability’s that she had open and tried to work it around my schedule! I really truly appreciate Rhonda!
