Hello, I'm Rhoda Donnelly, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Hypnotherapist, and Life Coach with over three decades of experience. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of helping thousands of individuals and families navigate life's challenges. I received my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Georgia in 1990 and have been blessed with a variety of interesting jobs which allowed me to work with children, adults, families, and elderly, including refugees, and the US military.

Hello, I'm Rhoda Donnelly, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Life Coach and Hypnotherapist with over three decades of experience.

I would be honored to collaborate with you to work towards your goals and achieve positive results. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to feel heard and understood. We will work to find solutions so you can achieve greater peace and personal power.

First session

Our first session will primarily be getting to know each other and setting some goals for our future time together.

Strengths

I am a warm, compassionate person and I intend to help you find your path to becoming your best self.

Ideal clients

Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Relationships, Divorce, Children, Play Therapy, and Parenting are my specialties. I have worked with clients from all backgrounds and experiences. For parents requesting therapy for their CHILDREN, please know that if your child is under age 12, then I will only see them in-person -- within a 15-minute drive of Westchase Florida. Please set up an initial telehealth appointment with me under your child's name so you can tell me your concerns and needs. Thereafter, I will visit your home and will work with your child in my mobile office or inside your home. I also require that parents participate in periodic sessions (telehealth or in-person) with me to discuss the child's progress. These sessions can be billed under the child's insurance.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT and Cognitive Processing are integrated in almost all of my techniques.

Family Therapy

I work with families to untangle their situations, improve communication and understanding, so they can relax in the family and achieve their goals outside of the home.

Play Therapy

Since Play is the first language of childhood, Play Therapy including Sand Tray work is the best approach to helping a child work through their emotions and heal from trauma. I also use puppets, story telling, and acitivities to help children understand themselves and develop coping skills.

Hypnotherapy

This is an excellent method to help you accomplish your health and wellness goals through deep relaxation and the power of your own subconscious.
