About Roderic
Roderic Quinto is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who aims to meet people where they are and walk alongside them. He offers calm, straightforward support for stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self‑esteem, depression, and major life changes. Roderic also works with concerns often linked to codependency and commitment issues.
Roderic holds a Master of Science degree in Clinical Psychology from Vanguard University of Southern California and brings eight years of clinical experience. Before becoming a therapist he spent over a decade in the corporate world as an IT project manager and analyst. That background shapes a practical approach to problem solving in sessions.
His work history includes individual counseling and time at a residential treatment facility focused on youth with psychological and behavioral needs. Those roles added experience with structured care and collaboration across teams. He also draws on his life roles as a husband and father when relating to everyday pressures.
Roderic describes an adaptable approach rather than a single method for every person. He looks at each person’s needs and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that fit the situation. Sessions are conversational and goal oriented, with a focus on skills you can use between appointments.
People come to him for help untangling communication problems, grief around separation or divorce, struggles with guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose or midlife change. He aims to be practical, steady, and compassionate while helping people make gradual, usable change.
Approaches that guide remote work and goals

These techniques help people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new ways of reacting, and reduce worry or shame. For relationship concerns, he emphasizes clearer communication and boundary-setting to improve interactions.
Finding the best approach is part of therapy. Roderic works with clients to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts plans over time and checks in to make sure the work feels useful and relevant.
