About Rhonda
Rhonda "Noelle" Grimes is a licensed counselor who centers sessions on each person's experience. She uses a direct, respectful approach and aims to make therapy feel understandable and doable. Noelle holds the LPC-MHSP credential and brings 28 years of clinical experience to her practice in Tennessee.
She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on the client's concerns and goals. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when helpful to address thinking patterns and actions that get in the way. In session she listens first, then offers practical steps a person can try between meetings.
Noelle has worked with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and ADHD. She also addresses related struggles such as low self-esteem, panic attacks, social anxiety, guilt, shame, impulsivity, loneliness, and questions about life purpose. Her style is straightforward and compassionate with an emphasis on real-life changes.
She notes that scheduling options are limited in the evenings at this time. When you begin, she will tailor session pace and goals to what you need. The intake starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site.
Noelle stresses respect and sensitivity in every session. She encourages people who are nervous about starting to acknowledge that taking the first step is significant and says she will work alongside them as they move forward.
How Rhonda's Approaches Work Online
Rhonda uses Client-Centered Therapy to make sessions focus on what matters most to each person. That means the conversation follows the client's concerns and goals, and the therapist acts as a thoughtful listener and partner. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting swept away and then choose actions that match their values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting patterns in thoughts and behaviors that contribute to problems like anxiety and depression. It often includes simple exercises and experiments people can try between meetings to test new ways of coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and day-to-day life, and then recommend which methods to try first. The plan can change as progress is made, and decisions are made collaboratively.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow continuing care when life is hectic. Some formats let people have shorter check-ins or avoid being on camera, which can help when bandwidth or time is limited.
