About Rondel
Rondel Kittleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and parenting challenges. He uses clear, teachable skills so parents and caregivers can make small changes that improve daily life. Rondel writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
He learned psychology at the undergraduate level and completed a master’s degree in psychology. Rondel spent time working in an inpatient hospital setting where he moved between units and gained experience with a wide range of concerns. That work gave him a foundation in recognizing different ways distress shows up.
Since then he has concentrated on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT. He teaches CBT skills to help people notice thoughts that feed worry and replace them with more balanced thinking. He also teaches relaxation techniques and ways to reduce strong emotional reactions.
In 2020 Rondel began seeing adults by telemedicine and has helped with anxiety tied to public health stress, relationship strain related to quarantine, and other situational worries. He aims to help clients understand how their minds work so they can use that understanding to help themselves.
Outside of work he enjoys walks, bird watching, reading, and playing FIFA, and he shares his life with a cat and a dog. He keeps his approach straightforward and focused on skills people can practice between sessions.
How CBT works in online sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In practice Rondel helps people spot unhelpful thoughts, test those thoughts, and try new, more balanced thinking. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problem-solving related to daily life.He also teaches relaxation and coping skills to reduce intense emotions and physical tension. These skills are brief exercises or strategies that people can practice at home between meetings. The therapist works with clients to tailor which CBT techniques fit their situation and pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rondel will collaborate with each person to choose which CBT tools to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. He frames sessions as a team effort where adjustments are common and expected.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, let people join from another room during a break, or allow a shorter check-in when time is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises for remote work so practical skill-building remains central.
