About Rhonda
Rhonda Duesterberg is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and life transitions. She supports those dealing with low self-esteem, grief, relationship tensions, and compassion fatigue. Rhonda works in Colorado and brings nine years of counseling experience to sessions.
Rhonda keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She creates a calm space where people can speak openly about hard feelings without judgment. Conversations focus on clear goals and small steps that fit real life.
Background and approach
Her approach combines evidence-based tools and a collaborative stance. Rhonda draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot thought patterns, acceptance strategies to reduce struggle with feelings, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage strong emotions. She also uses person-centered listening to help people feel heard.
Rhonda helps clients tackle parenting strain, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She also supports people coping with trauma, panic, depression, and loneliness. When anger is part of the picture, she works on awareness, impulse control, and making change that sticks.
Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Rhonda asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on availability. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches for online work
Rhonda uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT focuses on values and taking small actions that matter, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different ways of responding to reduce symptoms like panic and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rhonda will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. She adapts methods over time so skills and strategies match the client’s needs and pace.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video is useful for deeper exploration and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, skill practice between sessions, or ongoing coaching-style contact. These options make therapy easier to fit into daily life and help people stay consistent with their work.
