Indianapolis, Indiana therapist: Rick Rodgers, counselor/therapist
EMDR

Rick Rodgers

Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW, CADC, CCTP, RYT 500
My journey as an Afghanistan veteran and licensed psychotherapist has instilled a profound understanding of trauma's impact. Driven by this experience, I offer a holistic approach that weaves together talk therapy with somatic practices like mindfulness and meditation, fostering healing and resilience. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate trauma recovery, addiction, and narcissistic abuse. Additionally, I provide DOT SAP evaluations for transportation professionals. I believe in a collaborative therapeutic relationship where we work together to uncover your inner strength and create a path towards wholeness. If you experience any of these symptoms—hyperarousal, irritability, chronic fatigue, chronic shame, overeating, substance abuse, difficulties trusting others or yourself, trouble relating to others, avoidance of certain situations or memories, or physical symptoms like tightness in your shoulders, jaw, or stomach—you may be dealing with the aftermath of abuse. I specialize in helping individuals who are victims of abuse. However, if your relationship involves active emotional or physical abuse, and one partner is predominantly abusive, individual counseling for each of you may be more suitable. My approach is most effective when both partners have experienced abuse but are not in an antagonistic dynamic where one person is the primary abuser.

While a person can feel better after a good talk with a friend or relative, for moderate or severe emotional distress, this relief is only temporary. Talking with a trained listener helps alleviate emotional distress for good. The clinicians in our practice are trained and ready to help you.
