About Rhoda
Rhoda Anang is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Oklahoma with 11 years of experience. She has spent much of her recent work supporting adolescents in acute psychiatric settings and has experience with people across the lifespan. Her main areas include stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and family concerns, and issues common to young adults such as identity and life changes.
Rhoda uses a straightforward, interactive approach in sessions. She leans on client-centered methods to listen and understand each person's priorities. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies are part of her toolbox when people want practical steps and short-term goals.
Her background includes individual, group, and family work in psychiatric settings with adolescents aged 12-17 and other age groups over her career. That experience shaped how she works with crisis, trauma, and mood disorders, and with people who have experienced abuse. She is familiar with mood disorders such as bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder and supports people managing intense emotions and impulsivity.
In sessions, Rhoda aims to be open minded and respectful. She draws on multiple evidence-based methods to match what a person needs. She works with people on issues like grief, self-esteem, intimacy-related struggles, parenting strain, and isolation.
She conducts therapy in English and Hausa and does not accept international clients. To begin, prospective clients follow the platform steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first meeting.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Rhoda commonly combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy. Client-centered work focuses on listening and helping people say what matters to them. It helps when someone needs to sort out priorities, feel heard, and set the agenda for sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to try different responses. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress.She also uses motivational interviewing when people want support with change. That method helps clarify what a person values and builds confidence for small steps. Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Rhoda will work together with a person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust as needed based on progress and preference.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not specified here. Ask about the current online session options when you complete the matching questionnaire. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on a work break. Different approaches can be adapted to remote sessions, and Rhoda will help pick methods that suit a person's daily life and goals.
