My name is Romy Rodriguez and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have worked with various populations with mental health and substance abuse struggles. I also provided Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to adolescents and their families who were living in homeless shelters and were in the court system. I have also worked with women with Post-Partum depression and struggling with substance abuse.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Client can expect a collaborative process and empowering process. I want clients to feel empowered and understood. My goal is for clients to leave with a sense of hope and deeper connection to their feelings.
As a clinician, I value empathy and unconditional positive regard. Each client have different needs and they have a different treatment approach. My approaches are TFCBT, EMDR, and CBT models. These models are used to help each client work towards gaining confidence and a connection with their feelings, trust and peace of mind.
EMDR helps understand and move on from your trauma. My clients have found coping skills and better processing after doing EMDR
CBT can help you to reframe and change your irrational thinking.
