Biography: Welcome. I'm Rhonda Palmer, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 17 years of experience, licensed in Missouri, Texas, and Arizona. I support clients navigating anxiety, relationship dynamics, self-esteem, neurodivergent experiences (including autism and ADHD), and more. As a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional and Autism Spectrum Clinical Specialist, I care deeply about walking with people as they build resilience, release old patterns, and reconnect with their most authentic selves. I believe healing happens in connection but it also requires presence, honesty, and a willingness to grow through the hard stuff, not just around it. My approach is collaborative, respectful, and real. Therapy with me isn't about being "good" or getting it "right." It's about showing up as you are, messy, imperfect, honest, and ready to build something that's real, grounded, and sustainable for you. There's no need to meet anyone's expectations or fit into a mold. Instead, we work together to create a space that feels safe, where you can explore your truth and grow at your own pace. I work best with clients who are open to reflection, accountability, and meaningful change. If you've ever felt like you had to hide parts of yourself to feel safe or accepted, I want you to know that therapy can be different. This space is for people who are ready to engage in the work of healing honestly and with curiosity, not for performance or perfection. I welcome people who may have masked their truth, questioned their worth, or felt out of place in systems not built for them. I don't view autism or ADHD as flaws to be fixed but as valid, valuable, and deeply human ways of experiencing the world. In our work together, I'll meet you with care and curiosity while also supporting the kind of change that doesn't come from quick fixes. I draw from evidence based practices like CBT, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Solution Focused Therapy. I'm also training in Brainspotting, a powerful body based approach for emotional healing especially when words don't quite reach it. Therapy with me isn't about being "good" or getting it "right." It's about building something honest and sustainable. I offer a space rooted in mutual respect, emotional safety, and the belief that you already hold the wisdom you need, and that we're just finding it together. "When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change." Albert Einstein "It always seems impossible until it's done."
