About Rhoda
Rev. Rhoda Stuart is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 21 years of experience. She works with people dealing with relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem, career concerns, stress, anxiety, addiction, and mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar. She also addresses parenting questions, grief, trauma and abuse, and life transitions.
She uses practical approaches to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of her primary methods. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set achievable goals and track progress in short steps.
Sessions focus on clear steps clients can take between meetings. That might include noticing patterns, testing a new behavior, or building small routines to reduce stress. Conversations aim to be direct and action-oriented rather than abstract.
Her background includes two decades of work across many concerns, from addiction and domestic violence to caregiver stress and life-purpose questions. That experience informs realistic strategies for coping and problem solving.
Rhoda respects each person’s history and current situation while working toward concrete change. She asks about what is working and what is not, and then makes straightforward plans to adjust thoughts and actions. If you want practical, structured help for everyday problems, she focuses on steps you can try and evaluate together.
How her approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what helps. It is practical and often uses short exercises between sessions to build new habits or reduce anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes concrete goals and step-by-step progress, helping people pick a clear next action and measure whether it made a difference.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether CBT, Solution-Focused work, or a mix fits best, and they adjust the plan as they go.
The practical benefit of remote sessions is making appointments easier to fit into everyday life, such as having a shorter check-in during a break or avoiding travel time. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online work can concentrate on skills practice, reviewing exercises, and setting clear tasks to try between meetings, which matches her action-oriented approach.
