About Rhonda

Rhonda Osei-Bonsu is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with seven years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and depression, and also addresses related concerns such as guilt and shame. She welcomes exploring faith and spirituality as part of the work when clients want that included.

She views behavior, emotions, and thoughts as connected and focuses on how people see themselves and the world. Cognitive-behavioral methods are central to her practice. She often uses exercises between sessions, reading suggestions, group work, and steps to widen a client’s support network.

Intake begins with a standard assessment to understand the situation and choose sensible next steps. Session length is typically 45 minutes but can be adjusted when needed. Clients arrange appointments directly with her, and she asks for more than 24 hours notice for cancellations.

Her training includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Regent University and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. She also holds a Mental Health/Substance Abuse Prevention Certificate from Eastfield College in Dallas, Texas. Graduate coursework covered counseling across many settings and topics including diagnosis and treatment of addictive behaviors.

She has worked in pastoral counseling, school settings, and suicide prevention. She has counseled individuals, couples, families, and groups and has experience with diverse backgrounds. If a different service would better meet a client’s needs, she will offer a referral.

Therapeutic approaches and online session options

Rhonda centers much of her work on cognitive-behavioral methods. That means identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical actions, then building new habits that change feelings and behavior. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and managing guilt and shame.

She also integrates faith and spiritual conversation when clients want that included. That can look like exploring values, meaning, and how faith informs choices and forgiveness without making faith the only focus.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest techniques to try. Clients and therapist adjust the plan as progress and needs become clearer.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking, as the biography does not list specific online formats. Ask about the formats offered and pick what fits your daily life best. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also let someone avoid being on camera when that feels difficult, or choose a lower-bandwidth option when internet speed is limited.
