About Doris

Doris Rhodes is a licensed counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and major life changes. She brings an empathetic, respectful manner to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use every day. Doris aims to create a space where clients feel heard and understood as they consider change.

With eight years of professional experience, she adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s needs. Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the client’s own goals and pacing. She also uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR when those approaches match a person’s situation.

Doris pays attention to real-life problems like communication struggles, money and financial stress, workplace issues, and questions about life purpose. She blends short-term, solution-focused strategies with deeper processing when it helps. Sessions often focus on clear skills people can try between meetings.

Her style is compassionate and straightforward. She encourages people to name what matters most and to take manageable steps toward that change. Decisions about which techniques to use are made together, based on the person’s goals and comfort.

She holds credentials as LPCC and LPC and practices in Ohio. Conversations are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking to make sure the logistics match their needs.

How her approaches translate to online work

Doris uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the person’s goals front and center, listening closely and matching the pace to each individual. This approach helps people clarify what they want from counseling and set the agenda for sessions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to teach practical skills for coping with anxiety, stress, and depression. EMDR can be used as a way to process traumatic memories when appropriate and when the client and therapist agree it fits the situation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and decide with the client which methods to use based on goals, comfort, and progress. That collaborative decision-making helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the person in daily life.

The original profile does not specify exact online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Those practical benefits often help people keep a steady routine while they work on specific goals with a licensed professional.
