Hi, my name is Rodney W. Carson and I am a Licence Clinical Social Worker. I have work in the field of counseling and social work for the past 25 years. I am very passionate about helping individuals for I received help when I was struggling in life with drug addiction. I have been in recovery and working a recovery program for the past 25 years. For the last decade, I have worked as a Drug and Alcohol and Mental Health Outpatient Therapist for a local community counseling agency. I am co-inventor of a therapeutic medication game/program that has been utilized at different outpatient facilities, hospitals, nursing schools, and prisons throughout the United States and Canada. I enjoy motivating individuals to help themselves in times when they may be at their lowest point in life. It has been very rewarding to see a person get better and their life improve from the help I offer through counseling. At my place of worship, I am on the path to becoming an ordained deacon and have been teaching the adult Sunday School class for the past nine years. One of my favorite scriptures in the bible which helps motivate me is, Philippians: 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ which strengthen me". I am excited to have this opportunity to be of help to you.

Rodney is a very experienced and takes the time to listen to my needs. He addresses my needs based on his experience as a therapist coupled with my specific requirements. Each week we discuss a topic that he then provides me with some homework that then starts off our next session. I thoroughly enjoy my sessions with Rodney and his approach at pulling out issues then addressing them. I am very lucky to have Rodney as my therapist and would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a thorough, professional therapist…

I was in a pretty bad place when Rodney and I first began talking. Now, you can quite literally see the growth in how I act, and I can tell talking with him has made a big difference in how I think about things. He is overly supportive and not only validates how I am feeling, but challenges me to think about it from a bigger point of view. I am so glad we got matched together, he has helped me so much!

Rodney is a very caring, extremely intelligent practitioner. He is new to me, but I am beginning to realize that he seriously listens to what I have to say and then he "reads between the lines" and tells me what hears me saying. I LOVE THIS! He asks smart, soul-searching questions and is respectful of my answers. He is most thorough when it comes to checking in on me--this is a far better experience than I had anticipated!
