I work in a cognitive behavioral conceptual framework and use a range of skills and tools to help people feel better, improve functioning, and better cope with life's difficulties. These difficulties may involve stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, bipolar disorder, OCD, anger, coping with cancer or other chronic illnesses, marital distress, interpersonal problems, or trauma/PTSD. In the process of our interactive work together, we will clarify what processes are disruptive and help you learn ways to better adjust, cope, and deal with those difficulties. In this way, stress is reduced and life satisfaction is enhanced.

I specialize in providing psychotherapy and neurofeedback services to patients with OCD, Autism, ADHD, Anxiety, TBI, and migraine headaches. The commonality among these problems is that an understanding of brain functioning can inform the direction of the treatment process. I started my career working with young autistic children. I have always had some autistic patients in my caseload. Currently, I work with adults who are on the spectrum as a particular area of interest in my practice.

Waitlist for new clients
Becoming a therapist came naturally to me.....from my parents. My Father imparted a genuine interest in people along with an engaging wit, and my Mother graced me with her patience, profound kindness and empathy for all living things. The balance of my preparation required planning: acquiring extensive professional experience and excellent clinical training that shaped me into the therapist that I currently am. It's my belief that the process of psychotherapy, done well, can be uplifting through many of the challenges, ordinary and extraordinary, that living can present.

In each of us there is a wise and compassionate Self. It is already there, and does not have to be created or developed. Too often, however, our access to this Self is obscured by protective and sometimes conflicting thoughts and emotions. These protections were put in place for a reason, but can become outdated and even dysfunctional as we mature. In our therapy together we will uncover what is being protected, release old patterns and emotions, and create space for this wise Self to take a larger role in your life.

Located in Lynchburg. Hi, I'm Chuck Rodgers, the founder and one of the therapists at our Center. I became frustrated with traditional 45 minute sessions & grew tired of seeing my clients leave frustrated & hurting at the end of yet one more session that drug therapy out week after week. Thus so, I decided that I was going to do it differently. Because of this I have narrowed my focus to working in 1 & 2 Day Intensive formats and have now made it available on the weekend. Marriage Trouble? Let's do a weekend and change that...
