About Rhonda
Rhonda "Noelle" Grimes is a licensed professional counselor with the LPC-MHSP credential. She brings 28 years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical help for stress and anxiety, depression, and trauma. She also addresses concerns like ADHD, self-esteem, and panic disorder and panic attacks.
Noelle keeps conversations straightforward and respectful. She listens first, then tailors a plan that fits each person's situation. Sessions center on building coping skills, practicing new ways of responding, and setting small, doable goals.
Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral ideas, acceptance and commitment practices, and client-centered care. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, decide what matters to them, and use their own strengths to move forward. The work mixes short-term tools with moments of deeper reflection.
Noelle values clear communication and follows each person's pace. She encourages trying different strategies and checking what works. If someone needs help with panic attacks or social anxiety, she focuses on skills they can use between sessions.
She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin. Scheduling is set according to availability, and subscriptions can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients in Tennessee who read English can follow the site process to start a match.
How ACT, CBT, and Client-Centered Methods Fit Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, panic, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which is often helpful for panic attacks and social anxiety by teaching concrete coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the therapist follows the client's lead and supports personal insight.Figuring out the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss the different methods and collaborate with each person to decide what feels most useful for their goals and preferences. That collaborative process may include trying one approach for a while and adjusting based on how things are going.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel, allowing a shorter check-in when needed, and letting someone join from wherever they are that day. It also lets the therapist assign practice exercises to use between meetings, which can speed progress on worries like panic or social anxiety.
