Care Counseling Center

Care Counseling Center in Somerville, New Jersey, is a community-based outpatient mental health practice providing comprehensive counseling, psychiatric services, and intensive in-community interventions for children, adolescents, teens, and adults. Founded by Dr. María Rodríguez, PhD, LPC, the center is committed to helping individuals and youth overcome emotional and behavioral challenges while strengthening stability at home and in the community. Services are delivered in-office and through in-community settings for eligible youth, creating flexible support options tailored to each client’s level of need.

The center offers outpatient individual, family, couples, and group therapy, as well as psychiatric and psychosocial evaluations and medication management. Intensive In-Community Services (IIC) provide short-term, goal-oriented clinical intervention for youth experiencing moderate to high behavioral health needs, helping prevent higher levels of care. Care Counseling Center treats conditions including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, eating disorders, OCD, grief, divorce adjustment, and other behavioral and emotional concerns. Using solution-focused therapy, holistic treatment methods, and coordinated care planning, the practice emphasizes personalized treatment designed to restore balance and improve overall functioning for residents of Somerset County and surrounding New Jersey communities.
