Congratulations! You have taken the first and most difficult step on your journey to a healthier you. As you begin, know that two things are certain. You are not the problem, and neither is your loved one. Your problem is the problem. I enjoy helping people navigate “problems” and overcoming them. I consider myself a mental health advocate but not in a traditional way. As a therapist, I advocate on behalf of the people in the room; even if I am advocating for you on behalf of yourself. I am here to destigmatize mental health illness and redirect the focus to mental health awareness.

My name is Valeria Rodriguez, and I am a Provisionally Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I graduated with a Master of Arts in Counseling from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in 2023 and a Bachelor of Science in Education in 2020. My practice is to provide compassionate care for individuals 15 years and older, couples, and families navigating with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, relationship misalignment, and PTSD. My therapeutic approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am also fluent in both English and Spanish.

Thank you for considering me as your therapist. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey to mental wellness. With over six years of experience in the mental health field, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals of all ages navigate through life's challenges. As a fluent Spanish and English speaker, I am able to provide therapy in the language that my clients feel most comfortable communicating in. This not only helps to break down any language barriers but also creates a deeper level of understanding and connection with my clients.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, past trauma, interpersonal/relationship problems, difficult transitions etc.? My goal as a therapist is to help you learn new ways of coping with challenging situations, replace unhealthy patterns/ habits and heal from past experiences. My focus is working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and unresolved trauma.

I provide a safe, supportive space for couples and individuals. We negotiate together how to optimize your experience of living life, your relationships, your work, and we continue to build on that. I believe that we all have the capacity to heal and build the life that we want to live.

I have more than thirty years of experience providing state-of-the-art clinical assessment and compassionate psychological treatment for individuals and families with a broad range of issues including: anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, executive functioning, substance abuse, and chronic pain. These and other unresolved conflicts of the self keep people from achieving their goals in relationships and work.

Se habla Espanol! I am a trauma informed therapist that specializes on women's issues and family therapy. Depression, anxiety, and compulsive behaviors are common symptoms that my clients have struggled with; through the exploration of their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors many clients experience personal growth and symptom relief. LGBTQ+ clients are welcome! It can be a difficult decision to begin therapy, but once you have made the decision; you have begun the process of change. Although therapy is an investment of time, energy and resources, the rewards can be great.

Ayudo a las personas a explorar sus inquietudes para comprenderse mejor a sí mismas y a su malestar. También ayudo a las personas a clarificar sus valores y a desarrollar hábitos saludables. Ofrezco un espacio cómodo y colaborativo donde, mientras generamos confianza, puede compartir abiertamente cualquier cosa que pueda estar agobiándole o impidiéndole vivir una vida más plena. Me esfuerzo por entender su viaje y su historia a través de sus experiencias, y creo que tiene semillas de sabiduría que también pueden acercarnos a alcanzar sus metas.
