About Rolita Wielkie

Rolita Wielkie is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Southwestern New York. She brings a lived and professional perspective to her work, balancing more than two decades of clinical experience with personal experience as a mother of two adult daughters and as a grandmother to four grandchildren. In addition to her counseling background, she is a certified Group Fitness Instructor, an interest that reflects her appreciation for holistic well-being.

Her career has spanned both outpatient and inpatient settings, where she has worked with a wide range of individuals across the lifespan. Rolita emphasizes a person-centered, holistic, multicultural, and integrative approach, treating each person as an individual and helping them recognize their strengths and supports. She collaborates with people to clarify goals and to develop practical steps for achieving them.

Rolita integrates Rational-Emotive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into her work, tailoring techniques to fit each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. She encourages reasonable contact between sessions and often checks in to support ongoing progress. Currently she offers phone and live chat sessions and is not offering video sessions at this time. Rolita values openness and resilience, and she aims to help people build the tools they need to thrive.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Rolita draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to guide online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting relationship and helping people identify their own strengths and goals, which can be especially useful for life transitions, self-esteem, and relationship concerns. CBT offers practical strategies to recognize and shift unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, which can help with impulsivity, anger, and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rolita works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made so the treatment remains tailored and relevant.

Online therapy can take many forms - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - and offers flexibility for scheduling and communication. For Rolita's practice, phone and live chat are available options that make it easier to access support from home, work, or between obligations, while allowing licensed professionals to adapt session structure to what works best for the individual.
