I have been a therapist for many years. Therapy, I feel, begins with a relationship, and before someone leaves my office for the first time, I would like them to feel that they are understood and cared for. Very often, people feel overwhelmed in their marriage, , their other relationships, or their life at work. I try to tune in to their current discomfort quickly and give them the idea that we can work together to improve their life.

Accepts new clients - Imagine… Talking instead of fighting. Feeling appreciated and valued. Trusting again. Seeing a future that’s hopeful and bright. This could be you. I specialize in helping couples and individuals increase intimacy through better communication skills, in order to develop happier, more satisfying interpersonal relations. You may have been struggling with marital issues, anxiety and depression, or family of origin issues for too long. Anxiety, depression, or trauma, prevent us from realizing that we alone hold the key to change. Let me help you work through this.

Has life thrown you a curveball? Are you feeling stuck or in a rut? Missing a sense of purpose? That is normal! Those experiences, while difficult, can be a push towards growth and positive changes (change is hard!) & looking for a counselor to speak to is a great step forward. I believe that the best counselors have life experience that supports their specialization. I am able to support you with college prep, career, relationships, marriage, infertility and treatment journeys, pregnancy loss, NICU (happy to zoom into the hospital), dealing with a new diagnosis and chronic illness, and raising children with special needs.

Life transitions, family predicaments, career decisions, and marital or relationship dynamics, each requires attention and energy. Today, more than ever, anxiety and depression are increasing stress levels and further complicating the challenges of life, both routine and unexpected. Perhaps you are in need of change, yet overwhelming thoughts and feelings are preventing you from finding appropriate solutions.

I have been in private practice for over three decades. My approach is eclectic, engaging, and respectful. Humor has it's place in the journey of therapy! I feel blessed for the opportunity to help people build on their own strengths. My areas of particular interest include recovery, relationship/intimacy building, ADHD, sexuality/LGBT issues, ACOA, Wellness coaching, and hypnotherapy. I look forward to the opportunity of assisting you in challenging old behaviors and reframing healthier narratives in your life.

I have been a human being for 64 years, a practicing psychotherapist for 22. I invite you to stand shoulder to shoulder with me in our journey to ease your suffering and achieve your goals. Therapy offers many possibilities- seeing old problems in a new and open way, being more alive in the world, celebrating the possibility of wonder, or learning more effective strategies for relating. This means exploring and addressing various kinds of dilemmas and pain. It may simply mean support with your creative process, or more commonly, with the feeling that you are “stuck”.

As a solution-focused practitioner, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and celebrate your life! By applying complementary approaches and techniques, we will together unearth long-standing patterns of behavior and perception that may be holding you back or keeping you stuck. Heal Your Past, Strengthen Your Present, and Create Your Future!

Ronda D Jones Tobey, LMHC, LADC, CADC, SAP, MAC believes in a Healthy Person/Family not just the basic therapy.

Are you successful in most areas of your life, yet your inner critic tries to convince you that you are failing your relationships? Feel stuck, anxious, lonely, unheard, or misunderstood? Frustrated and don't know how or what to 'do' to change? You are not alone, and there is a way forward.

I look forward to welcoming you into a therapeutic environment that is nonjudgmental, safe and supportive to allow you to set realistic goals for your wellness. We will work together to help you develop a skill set to heal, process and move forward in your life in a comfortable time frame that suits you.

It is my belief that taking that first step towards change can be the most challenging, yet the most important. We all deserve a safe place in which to heal and grow as we navigate through some of life's challenges and difficult times. I offer CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness practices and Trauma Informed Care.
