About Rondel
Rondel Kittleman is an LPC in Texas with three years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, depression, and other common struggles. He also helps with relationship and family concerns, grief, sleep and eating issues, parenting strain, anger, career stress, addictions, LGBT issues, bipolar symptoms, intimacy-related problems, and coping with life changes.
He primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focusing on practical skills people can use between sessions. He teaches how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and how changing one piece can change the rest. He also offers relaxation techniques and simple exercises to notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts.
Rondel’s background includes clinical work in an inpatient hospital and several years working with adolescents and children using CBT skills. Since mid-2020 he has provided one-on-one telehealth sessions with adults dealing with pandemic-related anxiety and relationship stress. That mix of inpatient and telehealth work informs his straightforward, skills-based approach.
Sessions emphasize education about how common mental health problems look and what to expect from CBT work. He helps clients learn specific tools to manage anxiety, rebuild routines, handle cravings, or reduce intense emotions. The focus is on practice: short exercises, thought records, and relaxation drills people can use in daily life.
Outside of work he spends time with his dog and cat, walks, watches birds, reads, and plays FIFA. He aims to help people better understand their thinking and use that understanding to manage symptoms more independently.
How CBT skills translate to online sessions
Rondel focuses on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. CBT here means learning to notice the thoughts that lead to strong emotions and testing them with simple exercises. It’s a practical method for anxiety, low mood, stress, and many everyday problems. He also teaches relaxation skills that people can try in short daily practices to reduce physiological arousal.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which CBT tools and relaxation techniques fit their goals and routine. That may mean adjusting the pace, using more behavioral experiments, or focusing on sleep and routine building first. The plan is reviewed as progress is made so methods can be changed if they are not helpful.
Confirm the session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow practice of skills in the context of daily life. Shorter check-ins, video meetings, or audio-only contacts are common ways licensed professionals work remotely; verify which options this clinician currently offers when you schedule.
