Therapists in Monessen, PA
Monessen was named after the Monongahela River and the German City of Essen and was incorporated in 1898. Built around the Pittsburgh Steel Company, the city was largely dependent on the mill and when they closed in 1987, Monessen had to revitalize its community. However, the town seems to be doing just fine now with a population of just over 7400.
Monessen also has an abundance of mental health care providers in and around town who can help when life seems to be shutting down as the steel mill did. If you need help for any reason, contact one of the Monessen area counselors today.

Hi, my name is Rodney W. Carson and I am a Licence Clinical Social Worker. I have work in the field of counseling and social work for the past 25 years. I am very passionate about helping individuals for I received help when I was struggling in life with drug addiction. I have been in recovery and working a recovery program for the past 25 years. For the last decade, I have worked as a Drug and Alcohol and Mental Health Outpatient Therapist for a local community counseling agency. I am co-inventor of a therapeutic medication game/program that has been utilized at different outpatient facilities, hospitals, nursing schools, and prisons throughout the United States and Canada. I enjoy motivating individuals to help themselves in times when they may be at their lowest point in life. It has been very rewarding to see a person get better and their life improve from the help I offer through counseling. At my place of worship, I am on the path to becoming an ordained deacon and have been teaching the adult Sunday School class for the past nine years. One of my favorite scriptures in the bible which helps motivate me is, Philippians: 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ which strengthen me". I am excited to have this opportunity to be of help to you.
