About Douglas

Dr. Douglas Rodriguez is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. He works with adults who are looking for practical ways to manage symptoms and get unstuck.

He uses Client-Centered Therapy to make room for each person's perspective and build on what already helps. Motivational Interviewing is part of his work when someone is thinking about change but feeling unsure. Solution-Focused Therapy is used for short-term goal setting and measurable steps forward.

Sessions are conversational and goal oriented. He listens for where a person wants to move next, then suggests concrete strategies and small experiments to try between meetings. Topics often include mood regulation, managing compulsive behaviors, relationship repair, and dealing with big life transitions.

He also has experience with aging and geriatric issues, attachment concerns, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, infidelity, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, money and financial stress, and workplace problems. Obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic attacks, seasonal affective disorder, and process addictions such as gambling or problematic pornography use are within his stated focus areas.

Language of service is English and his practice is based in Florida.

Approach and what online sessions involve

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and priorities. The therapist listens closely to understand what matters most and uses that understanding to guide sessions. This approach helps when someone wants a respectful, person-led conversation about their concerns.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to talk about change. It uses questions and reflections to help someone resolve mixed feelings and strengthen their reasons for change. This can be useful for addictions, habit changes, or when a person feels stuck.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for practical next steps. It clarifies small, achievable goals and tracks progress over time. That approach is often used for short-term concerns and problems where measurable action matters.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose which methods to try and adjust them as needed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it easier to schedule around work, medical appointments, or caregiving duties without promising a particular format.
