About Rodrecus
Rodrecus Atkinson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina with 11 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, addictions, and a range of other challenges. Sessions address practical concerns such as sleep, eating, career strain, parenting challenges, and coping with life changes.
He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside cognitive behavioral approaches to help people name and work through strong emotions and relationship patterns. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, and client-centered methods depending on the person’s needs. Conversations are straightforward and interactive, with a focus on what is happening now and what can be tried next.
Rodrecus tends to work in a direct, transparent way. He uses honesty and occasional humor to keep sessions grounded. He avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect while helping them identify patterns that cause distress. Practical skills and short exercises may be used between sessions to build new habits.
He has experience with a wide set of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care. He can also address relationship communication, commitment and codependency issues.

How Rodrecus blends EFT, ACT and CBT for online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on naming and working with strong emotions and the interaction patterns they create. It can help when people feel stuck in repeating cycles or when emotions are hard to identify and talk about.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without getting pulled into them, then making values-based choices. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and when someone wants practical steps to act despite difficult emotions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and introduces concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It often includes short exercises to practice between sessions.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. Rodrecus will work with each person to choose which approaches fit their goals and preferences. He will check in about how things are going and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
