About Dr. Reinholtz

Madison Couples Counselor

My name is Rhonda Reinholtz, PhD, and I am a clinical psychologist in private practice. My education in psychology began at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN. I completed my graduate work at the University of Kansas in Lawrence, Kansas, and then completed a two-year postdoctoral fellowship in clinical psychology at the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, Kansas. While at Menninger, I completed specialized training in couples and family therapy, as well as human sexuality and sex therapy.

In addition to my private practice, I have been an academic staff member of the University of Wisconsin - Madison psychology department for over 25 years where I currently teach a capstone class in the psychology major.

My approach to psychotherapy blends a contemporary psychodynamic orientation with cognitive-behavioral psychology. I work to help clients move forward in their lives using practical solutions, while also developing an understanding of the underlying issues that contribute to their struggles.

I welcome the opportunity to work with you to sort through whatever isn't going well in your life right now and to make it better. If you have any questions about me or my practice, please contact me.

Who Are My Clients?

The people I work with are seeking help with difficulties ranging from depression and anxiety to relationship and family issues. I see people who are unhappy but don't know why, as well as people who have a good idea why they aren't happy but still haven't been able to change their lives or how they feel. Many people who come in are seeking therapy for the first time, and many others have had therapy in the past and are either looking for a new perspective or are dealing with a new problem.
