About Rodney
Rodney Pride is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 36 years of experience. He focuses on family and parenting concerns, self-esteem, career questions, and coaching. He also works with adoption and foster care issues, attachment matters, men's concerns, and young adult challenges.
Rodney uses straightforward conversation and listening to help people sort out what matters most. Sessions often involve identifying patterns in relationships and testing small changes to daily routines. He pays attention to feelings like guilt, shame, or anger and helps people find practical ways to respond.
His approach draws on client-centered methods that let the person lead the pace of work. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice moment-to-moment experience and reduce anxiety. Motivational interviewing helps with decisions and steps when someone feels stuck about career, parenting, or life direction.
Rodney has worked with panic attacks, social anxiety, seasonal mood shifts, and attachment difficulties for many years. He also addresses fatherhood issues, forgiveness, and rebuilding trust after relational ruptures. The focus is on clear goals and concrete skills rather than abstract theory.
People who meet with him can expect practical talk about daily life, relationships, and work. He helps people set manageable steps and revisit progress over time. To start, clients choose an online therapy option, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
How his approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's goals and concerns first. The therapist listens closely and follows what the client brings up, which helps clarify priorities for parenting, family, or career decisions.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to reduce anxiety and improve presence. These practices can help with panic symptoms, social anxiety, and seasonal mood changes by building small daily habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rodney will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can change as progress is made and new priorities appear.
Practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting therapy into a busy week and shorter check-ins when needed. Session formats are not specified here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to maintain continuity while balancing work, family, and other obligations.
