About Lucinda
Lucinda Rhoads is an Ohio-licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and challenges with self-esteem. She also supports those managing ADHD, addictions, grief, relationship and parenting strains, and career or life-change decisions. Lucinda draws on nearly 30 years of experience to offer steady, practical help.
Her approach is warm and straightforward. Sessions focus on understanding what led to current struggles and on building skills to cope better day to day.
Background and approach
She listens for patterns in relationships and behavior, then works with each person to try small, manageable changes. Lucinda uses a mix of methods to suit the person in front of her. That can include talk-based, skills-focused work and techniques aimed at processing past distress.
She aims to make therapy a collaborative process, so goals and tools are chosen together. People can expect clear, plain-language conversations rather than jargon. Treatment might include learning emotion regulation skills, improving communication habits, addressing attachment and abandonment concerns, or focusing on practical steps for ADHD and impulsivity.
Progress often comes from repeated practice and steady support. Over time Lucinda helps people regain a sense of control and purpose. She balances empathy with actionable plans, helping clients move through grief, recover from trauma, and rebuild trust in themselves.
Her long experience in counseling informs a flexible, person-centered style.

Online support
How Lucinda’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online work can use conversation and exercises to notice attachment styles and practice new ways of relating to others. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and empathy. In a remote session this means the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what is said, and helps people find their own solutions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, involves guided processing of distressing memories and related reactions; parts of EMDR can be adapted to remote sessions to help with trauma symptoms and painful past events.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Plans can change over time as needs shift, and techniques are selected collaboratively rather than imposed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and travel while keeping the therapeutic goals front and center.
