Hi, I'm Rhonda Lugo! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who is passionate about helping clients navigate through their personal journey of life's challenges and disappointments. I help clients statewide via telehealth with anger management, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life coaching. I feel that my therapeutic approach has been helpful for children, teens, and adults.
My approach
My theoretical approaches to treatment are integrative with the use of evidence-based treatment modalities that guide clients toward a life of tranquility and wellness.
My focus
I have over ten years of experience treating children, teens, and adults. I help individuals work through their personal challenges with anxiety, depression, grief, and various life transitions. Clients receive the tools, skills, and guidance needed for healing, transition, and growth.
My communication style
I focus on establishing a supportive, trusting, and welcoming atmosphere for clients. I want my clients to feel comfortable enough to share anything they wish to discuss. I work hard to help my clients understand that I will be listening to them and without judgment. We are all a work in progress and my goal is to be positioned to provide guidance and direction as needed during our sessions.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have always enjoyed helping others process and explore challenging moments in their lives. I wanted a career that would allow me to do this every day and help my clients become a better version of themselves. I feel therapy is a healthy process in guiding individuals toward relief from emotional distress, healing from trauma, developing healthier habits, coping with symptoms, and creating goals for a better quality of life. I love watching individuals transition and achieve such goals. I take such opportunities seriously and would love to be there to help provide support during your journey.
My goals for you
My goal is to help my clients feel as comfortable as possible. I collaborate with the client to create a custom plan that fits their unique needs and pace.
My first session with you
Clients should expect our initial session to be an opportunity for us to connect and decide what direction would be most beneficial for them. I would want to learn more about their specific needs, thoughts, and feelings. We will collaborate and establish what path will help you arrive at your desired therapeutic goals.
