Rhonda Zavala

Therapist

Virtual • Sanger, TX


My experience centers on supporting clients of all ages through a wide range of life challenges. Guided by a solution-focused perspective, I believe holistic healing is a foundational part of effective client care. I am trained in EMDR, a therapeutic modality that helps clients process trauma and other difficult life experiences that may interfere with personal growth, relationships, and mental health. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and other concerns that can make it difficult to feel grounded or move forward. I hold a master’s degree from Colorado Christian University and have received training in both play therapy and EMDR. I have also worked with clients experiencing dual diagnoses within the field of substance use disorders, which has deepened my understanding of the connection between emotional pain, coping, and healing.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, and you don't have to navigate it alone. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, and the kind of stress that quietly wears you down — and I especially enjoy supporting men who may be trying therapy for the first time. My goal is to provide a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and respectfully challenged to grow. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, build on your strengths, and create practical strategies that move you toward the life you want to live. I hold a Master of Education from Lamar University and bring a warm, empowering, judgment-free approach to every session.
