About Roderick
Roderick Foley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wyoming with 13 years of post-licensure experience. He focuses on parenting, family concerns, stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction, mood challenges, and related issues that often come up at home. Roderick writes plainly and aims to help adults manage the pressure of caregiving, relationship strain, and life transitions.
He brings a long background in rehabilitation and program development dating back to 1987. That work included operating a multi-service rehabilitation center addressing dual diagnosis, developmental disability, and acquired brain injury. He also developed a clinical curriculum for a wilderness program for Native American youth with substance use problems that included intensive family and extended family involvement.
Roderick describes his counseling style as rooted in client-centered care, built on honesty, dignity, and respect. He emphasizes cultural sensitivity and attention to early attachment patterns when relevant to problems at home. His practice includes play therapy with children and adults, group and individual psychosocial therapies, and work focused on parenting and family relationships.
In sessions he uses goal-directed methods from cognitive-behavioral approaches alongside acceptance-based, attachment-focused, and emotion-oriented techniques. He also draws on elements of psychodynamic and rational-emotive work when useful. He aims for straightforward conversations, practical goals, and occasional humor.
Roderick has been involved in telehealth development since 2016 and notes its potential for reaching rural and isolated people. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
How sessions work
How his therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. It helps people who are stuck by connecting daily actions to what matters to them. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current family and parenting relationships. It can be useful for people who want to understand recurring conflict or trust issues at home.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. From that discussion he mixes ACT, attachment work, CBT strategies, and other methods to form a plan together rather than using a single fixed method.
The biography notes experience with telehealth development since 2016, but current session formats are not specified here. Confirm which session types are offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, a phone call when bandwidth is limited, or a video session when visual cues are helpful. The focus is on practical ways to bring therapy into everyday routines without changing other responsibilities.
