Rhonda LucineoLPC

Rhonda Lucineo, LPC, centers her practice on helping people work through trauma, relationship strain, and mood challenges. She uses clear, practical approaches to help clients name what feels hard and find steady steps forward. Her style is warm and direct, aiming to make therapy feel manageable even during stressful times.

Rhonda brings 13 years of clinical experience to her work in Connecticut. She supports people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, and post-traumatic stress. She also helps with family-related concerns such as divorce, blended family issues, adoption and foster care matters, caregiver stress, and attachment difficulties.

In sessions she blends methods like attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral techniques. That mix lets her focus on what the person needs most in the moment. Rhonda often uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused steps to set small, achievable goals.

She pays attention to how past relationships shape current feelings and behaviors. That perspective can be useful for postpartum depression, abandonment concerns, infidelity, and domestic violence recovery. Her goal is to help people feel more in control of their mood and relationships.

Rhonda aims to create a steady space where people can talk things through and test new approaches between sessions. She works collaboratively to build coping skills, rethink unhelpful patterns, and plan realistic next steps. People leave sessions with concrete tools and a clearer sense of direction.

Approaches that translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and behavior. Online conversations can uncover patterns in relationships and help people try new ways of connecting and setting boundaries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood management through homework and short experiments between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rhonda will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. Together they review what is helping, adjust techniques, and set small, achievable goals so progress feels clear and manageable.

Confirm the current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep momentum with homework and skill practice between appointments, making therapy more practical for everyday life.
