LMHC, 10 years of experience
Welcome! My name is Ishanie (eye-shuh-knee) Sanchez-Rodriguez and I’m a licensed mental health counselor/professional counselor in New York, New Jersey and Florida. I have 14 years of progressive clinical experience in treating individuals, couples and families who struggle with mental health struggles such as anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship struggles, and personality disorders to name a few. Together, we will learn and utilize different strategies to build your toolbox of coping mechanisms and help you become the best version of yourself.
Our first session will be an intake assessment, where we would offer brief introductions and start learning about various challenges you may currently be facing. This process will help you gauge whether I'm the right clinician for you. We will then commence our work by slowly utilizing skills to identify our triggers and learn how to best cope with them together.
I provide a safe space, free of judgment, for clients to work towards a greater sense of self empowerment and I am passionate about leading you to a balanced life geared toward feeling purposeful. I will always strive to help you remain accountable and feel supported throughout your journey. Ready to get to work?
I am a proud Latine woman with personal experience within the BIPOC and Latinx communities working every day at de-stigmatizing mental health. Y tambien hablo español cuando es necesario para servirle mejor.
We will use CBT to identify the problem, identify our strengths within the problem and how to utilize those strengths to come up with a sustainable solution.
With DBT, we will learn how to observe a situation, label it and actively engage in order to process our circumstances mindfully.
