About Rondel
Rondel Kittleman works with people who are seeking clear, skills-based support for stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and related life challenges.
Background and approach
He centers sessions on practical strategies clients can use between meetings, helping them understand how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact so they can gain more reliable control over daily reactions and choices. Rondel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as his primary framework, teaching evidence-informed skills such as thought monitoring, cognitive restructuring, and relaxation techniques.
He brings three years of professional experience as a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas and has focused much of his clinical time on delivering CBT skills to adolescents and children as well as providing one-on-one work with adults via telehealth settings.
His approach emphasizes psychoeducation about mental health, normalizing how conditions are expressed, and empowering clients with tools to manage intense emotions and reduce unhelpful patterns. Outside of work he enjoys walks, bird watching, reading, and playing FIFA, and he shares his home with a cat and a dog.
Rondel aims to help clients build understanding of their minds so they can apply practical strategies and support their own growth over time.
Applying CBT Tools Online for Everyday Challenges
CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that contribute to stress and emotional distress and replacing them with more balanced, actionable thoughts. This skill-based work often includes tracking automatic thoughts, practicing cognitive restructuring, and developing concrete behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns.Another frequent focus is teaching relaxation and coping strategies that reduce physiological arousal and support emotional regulation. These techniques - such as breathing exercises and progressive muscle relaxation - can be practiced in-session and assigned as between-session exercises to build lasting habits.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to match CBT strategies to their specific needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time based on what is most helpful.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and the ability to practice skills in everyday environments. These formats can make it easier to maintain consistency with sessions, access support from a distance, and integrate therapeutic tools into daily life.
