Hi, Welcome!

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience, I am dedicated to helping individuals find healing, build resilience, and create meaningful change in their lives.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, substance use challenges, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, and emotional overwhelm. Whether you're feeling stuck, struggling with past experiences, or simply seeking personal growth, I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered.

You may feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, overwhelmed by emotions, or unsure why certain experiences continue to affect your life. Maybe you find yourself repeating the same relationship patterns, being hard on yourself, feeling disconnected, or trying to move forward but something keeps pulling you back.

Therapy is a space to slow down, understand yourself on a deeper level, and create lasting change. Together, we will explore the roots of your struggles, reconnect with your strengths, and help you move toward greater self-trust, healing, and a life that feels more aligned with who you truly are.

Therapist

Virtual • Pasadena, CA


I'm Tene Rodgers, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience in mental health and social services. I made the decision to become fully licensed five years ago because I wanted to go deeper in the work I've always cared about, and I haven't looked back since. I'm a Black woman, and that lived perspective shapes how I show up in the room. I offer culturally affirming care to adults, teens, and families, with a particular focus on trauma, grief, women's issues, relationship dynamics, and substance use.
