About Roderick

Roderick Foley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wyoming with 13 years of experience. He works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, addictions, LGBT issues, relationships, family concerns, grief, anger, career questions, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, coaching, and ADHD.

He began work in rehabilitation in 1987 and has led programs serving people with dual diagnosis, developmental disability, and acquired brain injury. He wrote a clinical curriculum for a wilderness adventure program for Native American youth dealing with substance abuse, and that program included intensive family and extended family work. Much of his earlier work focused on child and adolescent counseling and family case management.

Today his practice in Wyoming continues to include children and family work, play therapy with children and adults, group and individual psychosocial therapies, couples counseling, and family counseling. His background also includes developing a telehealth platform since 2016 aimed at reaching rural and isolated populations.

His counseling style is person-centered. He emphasizes honesty, dignity, and respect in sessions. He describes his approach as goal-directed and draws on cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive methods, often mixing approaches to fit the situation.

Roderick notes diversity and cultural sensitivity are important parts of his work. He also keeps a practical outlook and a sense of humor when appropriate. To begin, readers are asked to use the site's matching route to schedule an initial session.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and committing to actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck by shifting attention toward values-based steps. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections; it can help when attachment issues, family problems, or relationship patterns are causing distress. Client-Centered Therapy centres the person's own perspective and pacing, giving space for the client to lead what gets talked about while the therapist offers reflective listening and support.

Choosing the right approach is part of working together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods over time. That collaborative process helps find practical tools and ways of coping that suit day-to-day life.

The biography notes experience developing a telehealth platform since 2016, but specific session formats can change. Confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, and busy schedules; they can allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and help keep appointments during transitions. A therapist can also suggest phone or video variations depending on what works better for a particular task or pace.
