Background and approach
In sessions he listens for values and goals that matter to each person. Faith and conservative values are sometimes part of the conversation when clients want that connection. He works to align therapy with what each person finds meaningful.
Dr. Rhoades emphasizes small, achievable steps. That can mean practicing new communication skills, making plans to reduce addictive behaviors, or setting boundaries after a breakup.
Progress is measured by changes people can use in daily life. Over 35 years he has developed a calm, direct style that aims to balance care with practical guidance. He offers options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How CBT and online formats fit together
Dr. Rhoades uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and then practice different responses. CBT sessions often involve setting small goals, trying new behaviors between meetings, and reviewing what worked to build clearer thinking and better coping for depression, anxiety, and addiction-related urges.The choice of approach is collaborative. He will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life to decide if CBT is a good starting point or if adjustments are needed. That shared process helps tailor the work to fit values, faith considerations when relevant, and practical needs.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging makes therapy easier to fit into busy routines. Video calls are useful for a fuller face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be used for shorter check-ins or to keep momentum between longer sessions. These options help people continue steady work on recovery, relationships, and self-esteem without frequent travel.
