Rodney Ford

Rodney Ford, LICSW, is a dedicated therapist who specializes in assisting adults and elders (65+) facing challenges in their lives and struggling with the stress of everyday life. His approach is rooted in providing a caring, empathetic, and supportive environment that helps foster change, healing, and growth. Rodney believes that an individual's problems do not define them but are merely a part of their journey. He recognizes the significant influence of race, culture, age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, sexual orientation, and community on one's perceptions and experiences. A core principle in his practice is being genuine and nonjudgmental while validating clients' experiences and feelings. With over 25 years of experience working in diverse settings, Rodney has acquired extensive knowledge and practice in supporting multi-stressed clients. He firmly believes in the strength and resilience of individuals, often surpassing their own expectations. Rodney’s primary therapeutic approaches include narrative, collaborative, strength-based, and solution-focused therapy, complemented by his specialized training in Narrative Therapy, trauma-focused care, batterer’s intervention, and family therapy.
