About Rhoda
Rhoda Anang is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with 11 years of experience. She has spent much of her recent work as an acute adolescent therapist and has experience across age groups. Her practice addresses stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, LGBT concerns, relationship and family issues, parenting, anger, bipolar conditions, and coping with life changes.
She has worked directly with adolescents ages 12 to 17 in individual, group, and family therapy within a psychiatric setting. Earlier in her career she also worked with adults and senior citizens. Her caseload has included people dealing with mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, sexual assault and abuse, self-harm, and domestic violence.
Rhoda uses a straightforward, interactive style in sessions. She emphasizes listening, asking clear questions, and helping people try practical steps between meetings. She trained primarily in cognitive behavioral methods but also draws on client-centered, solution-focused, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused approaches when they fit the situation.
She describes her work as respectful and attentive to cultural differences and varied life experiences. That perspective informs how she talks with parents, adults struggling with relationship or family strain, and those managing emotional fallout after traumatic events.
Rhoda works in English and Hausa. People curious about how she structures sessions or what to expect are encouraged to follow the online matching steps and schedule an initial appointment to learn more.
How sessions work
How Rhoda’s approaches translate to online sessions
Rhoda commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused methods in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying different behaviors to change mood and reactions; it is frequently used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Trauma-focused therapy pays attention to the effects of past hurt and uses structured techniques to reduce the hold of traumatic memories and symptoms.She also draws on client-centered and motivational interviewing techniques to support strength and choice. Client-centered work involves attentive listening and reflecting what the client says. Motivational interviewing helps people clarify goals and build small steps toward change. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process that the therapist and client work through together based on needs, goals, and preferences.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make scheduling easier by reducing travel time and letting sessions fit around caregiving and work commitments. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when a quick follow-up is needed, or sessions without video if that better suits a client's bandwidth or comfort. Licensed professionals adapt methods so practical tools and homework can be used between meetings.
