About Rodney
Rodney Pride is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people facing family and parenting stresses, career changes, and self-esteem struggles. He offers steady support for those dealing with social anxiety, panic attacks, or seasonal mood shifts.

He brings 36 years of experience to gentle, practical conversations. Sessions aim to sort out what matters most and to find small, workable steps forward. He listens for patterns in relationships and behavior, then helps clients try approaches that fit their life and goals.
Rodney leans on client-centered work that keeps the person’s priorities at the center. He also uses mindfulness practices to help manage overwhelming feelings and motivational interviewing to support change when someone feels stuck. Trauma-focused ideas are part of his toolbox when past hurts continue to affect daily life.
In the room he focuses on reducing shame, strengthening self-worth, and improving how people handle family conflict and parenting pressures. He offers coaching-style guidance for career decisions and practical strategies for coping with anxiety or panic symptoms.
People who choose him can expect a respectful, down-to-earth approach that aims to clarify next steps and build on strengths. If you want to start, the site’s Start Therapy button begins a brief matching questionnaire to connect you and schedule sessions based on availability.
