Hello, I’m Cruz Rodriguez a License Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I'm a bilingual clinician with specialized training in various therapeutic modalities. I have provided therapy to adults impacted adversely by adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, maladaptive behaviors, severe mental illness, substance abuse, and/or family conflicts. My therapeutic style is person-centered and cognitive-behavioral, providing a non-judgmental environment where you could feel free to explore the issues impacting your existence. It’s through this exploration that I have witness many individuals become empowered by acquiring coping mechanism that allows them to improve their wellbeing and achieve goals in life.
During the initial sessions we will explore the purpose of you seeking therapy. Subsequently, I will assess clinically what seems to be impacting you and establish treatment goals.
The treatment modalities that I mostly use during the sessions are Client-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic. Periodically, I will request that you complete a PHQ-9 Depression Assessment and GAD-7 forms to monitor your mood and treatment outcomes on your well being.
My biggest strengths include providing a non-judgmental environment where you could feel free to be yourself and explore the issues impacting you. Implementing client-centered techniques aiming at increasing your insight concerning how you could engage in problem solving to solve the issues impacting you. Throughout the sessions I will skillfully implement cognitive-behavioral techniques. That will be aiming at increasing your insight concerning how cognitive processes and behaviors are adversarially inhibiting you from thriving.
I'm able to help individuals who are eighteen and older.

Cruz has a gentle, measured approach. He is attentive and his responses made a lot sense. I appreciated how he allowed me to speak and how he paced the conversation.
