Background and approach
Many people come for help finding steadier moods, clearer boundaries, and better ways to talk with partners or loved ones. Dr. Rhoades draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going.
He tailors that work to fit someone’s values and daily life. He also weaves conversation about meaning and purpose into counseling when that matters to the client. With 35 years of experience, he brings practical know-how rather than jargon.
He aims to make sessions straightforward and understandable. People can expect a respectful tone and an emphasis on skills they can use right away. Clients come from varied backgrounds and seek help for specific problems or broader life changes.
The focus is on what the individual wants to achieve and how to get there step by step. Dr. Rhoades supports progress with steady, goal-oriented sessions and regular check-ins.

04Online support
CBT and practical strategies for online care
Dr. Rhoades uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and change reactions that keep problems going. CBT is useful for depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, and addiction-related patterns because it focuses on concrete steps and measurable change.He also integrates conversations about life purpose and values into sessions when clients want that focus. That approach helps link everyday choices to what matters most, so goals feel meaningful as well as practical. Finding the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process - the therapist and client work together to test what helps and adjust the plan based on results and preferences.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for full conversations and visual cues, phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats offer flexibility for people juggling work, family, or travel while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
