About George

George "Rico" Bodin is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida. He brings ten years of clinical experience and focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBT concerns, relationships, and depression. He uses a narrative approach to help people untangle the stories they tell about themselves.

That work often connects to other methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-focused techniques. Sessions aim to clarify what matters to each person and to build small, practical steps toward those values.

Background and approach

Rico centers conversation on what the client wants to change. He creates space for honest talk about feelings like guilt, shame, or isolation. He also addresses issues such as abandonment, body image, communication problems, and impulse control when they come up.

When addiction or mood struggles are present, he pairs straightforward coping skills with longer-term meaning work. People may practice behavioral strategies one week and then reflect on life purpose the next. The mix depends on each person's goals and pace.

Rico offers phone, video, live chat, and text-based sessions to fit varied schedules. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a parent or individual completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules based on the therapist's availability.

Online session options

How narrative and acceptance work online

George "Rico" Bodin uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they live by, identifying recurring themes and offering alternative ways to describe difficult moments. That approach helps when someone feels stuck by labels or repeated patterns in relationships and mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, is also part of his work and focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions even when uncomfortable feelings are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and building consistent habits.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your situation. He checks in about what feels helpful and adjusts the mix of narrative, ACT, and attachment-informed tools based on progress and preference.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth conversation and nonverbal cues, while phone calls work well when bandwidth or screen time is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging can provide brief check-ins, flexible coaching between sessions, and easier scheduling during busy days. These options make therapy more accessible and let people work at a pace that fits their life.
