About Rhonda

Rhonda Aragon is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of practice in Texas. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. Her work also includes stress, grief, relationship struggles, and issues that arise with aging and geriatric concerns.

She builds a calm, respectful space where people can talk about what's bothering them. Sessions are collaborative and geared toward practical change. Rhonda listens for patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behavior, then helps clients try different ways of responding.

Her approach pulls from several methods to match each person's needs. She uses client-centered work to stay grounded in the person's goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

For trauma recovery she may use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when appropriate, and she integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when relationship issues are central. The focus is on short, clear steps that make daily life easier, such as better sleep habits, communication practices, and coping routines.

Rhonda also supports caregivers and people facing medical or cancer-related stress. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people build resilience and find direction during life changes.

How Rhonda’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and values. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients set steps that feel right for them. This approach helps people who want a respectful, goal-driven conversation about change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings. Online CBT breaks big problems into small experiments people can try between sessions, such as sleep routines, thought records, or behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, provides concrete skills for handling intense emotions and improving relationships. In online sessions these skills are taught, practiced, and adapted to daily life through role play and guided homework.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Session formats are not detailed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports continuity of care for people managing caregiving responsibilities, medical appointments, or work schedules.
