Rhonda Calvin

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.5 mi away • Sacramento, CA


Clients working with me can expect a therapeutic experience rooted in restorative care, cultural authenticity, and deep respect for their lived story. At Cultivating A Better Me, healing is not defined solely by symptom reduction—it is a process of rebuilding inner safety, strengthening emotional resilience, and reconnecting with the parts of yourself that deserve to be seen, honored, and supported.

My clinical foundation began at Sacramento Head Start, where I learned the profound impact of compassion, early intervention, and family‐centered support. With advanced training in Early Childhood Development and Counseling Psychology, I bring specialized expertise in disruptive behaviors, trauma‐responsive care, and expressive‐arts‐based healing.

Within my practice, clients are invited into a space where they can slow down, breathe, and explore their experiences without judgment. I integrate evidence‐based practices with creativity, narrative work, and culturally grounded approaches that honor identity, community, and personal agency.

Most importantly, clients should know that I show up with presence, authenticity, and a deep commitment to helping them cultivate meaningful, sustainable change. Healing is a collaborative journey—and I walk alongside you with compassion, clarity, and support.

Are you struggling to have harmony in your relationships? Does having ease in your life seem like a far-fetched dream? Are you feeling overwhelmed with the state of the world and all you have to do? Welcome, you're in the right place! I have been in your shoes and the first (or twenty) step is always the hardest. As someone who has learned to balance multiple cultures, I know what it can feel like to straddle various parts of your identity. I have first hand experienced feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, angry, and at a complete loss for how to navigate the intensity of my emotions. This has informed my practice and work with clients where I strongly believe that our emotions guide us to understanding ourselves in a new light. Asking for help can be difficult, especially in a culture that values productivity over personality.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • Carmichael, CA


I offer individual psychotherapy for adults healing from trauma, and working to

have a different relationship with others, themselves, their bodies, and food.

Located in Sacramento, California, I offer a combination of individual and group

sessions in addition to telehealth throughout California. My work is person-

centered, grounded in warmth, curiosity, and respect for everyone’s unique

story. Whether you are navigating eating disorder recovery, body image distress,

trauma, or identity exploration, therapy can be a place to gently make sense of

what feels overwhelming.

As a trauma-informed and trauma-trained therapist, I believe healing happens

not only through insight, but through felt experience. Together, I will support

you in learning how safety, connection, and regulation can live in the body again.

I specialize in working with adults and queer individuals navigating trauma,

eating disorder recovery, and body image distress.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Sacramento

Searching for therapists in Sacramento starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Sacramento therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and training match what you want to discuss. Provider bios can also show whether someone uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Sacramento offers a range of therapy options across neighborhoods like Midtown, Land Park, East Sacramento, and Carmichael, with both in-person and virtual appointments available. If commute time, parking, or schedule changes affect your choice, virtual therapy can make it easier to find a therapist whose availability fits your calendar. You can also narrow your search by appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and free phone consultations. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand a therapist’s communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Sacramento can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, and you can confirm insurance coverage and review estimated costs before you book. You can browse Sacramento therapy options, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
