I ONLY SEE ADULT CLIENTS and I DON'T SEE COUPLES. I’ve wanted to be a therapist since I was 18; I knew that I was a very self-aware, emotionally sensitive, and insightful individual.

In high school, my friends always confided in me about their problems because they saw that I was trustworthy. Before becoming a therapist, I was a medic in the US Army.

Im a Bilingual English/Spanish-speaking therapist with a Marriage and Family License, with 18 years of clinical experience, 12 years licensed and in private practice. I consider myself to be bi-cultural. Having been raised as a first-generation American in a Latin family, I can identify with the mentality of someone living within two "worlds". Transitioning from one culture to another with seemingly different values, beliefs and language. I can easily understand the struggle that maintaining, and existing in both, can sometimes be. I've come to perceive and appreciate it as the gift of having a "bridge" that allows connection to, and understanding of, different aspects of people and life. My education has a foundation in Clinical Psychology, woven with holistic transpersonal themes, the connection between mind, body, and spirit, and just plain down-to-earth common sense. Always keeping in mind the client's personal beliefs and values.

Hi! My name is Jose Rodriguez, I have been working in behavioral health since 2008, and it has been a very rewarding experience. I have an energetic and enthusiastic approach. Please note that I am licensed in both California and New York. I stay up to date with the latest studies to provide the best care possible. I am well versed in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I am originally from New York, so I have had the opportunity to gain experience at reputable institutions such as New York Presbyterian Hospital and Montefiore Health System. I have also served as Director of the Behavior Health Department at Salinas Valley Health in Salinas, California. I earned my BA in Psychology from Boston College and my Master of Social Work from Fordham University. I also earned my MBA in Healthcare Administration in 2019. Outside of work, I enjoy boxing, playing golf, yoga, lifting weights, and going to the beach! The goal in psychotherapy is for you to become your own therapist. We would achieve this in a collaborative and strategic manner. There has always been a need to address our emotional well being but until recent times, this topic is more accepted than ever to discuss. Not only do I help people address their problems, but I also aim to help people be self-actualizing.

I gained extensive experience of full spectrum of psychiatric diagnoses while working for 5 years at a locked inpatient psychiatric hospital in which I was on the most acute locked unit for 2.5 years and 2 years in the outpatient (PHP/IOP) department as well as working with the Military Residential Treatment department. Subsequently, I have worked for a residential treatment center beginning in 2020-present while I began building my private practice. I am currently contracted to provide EMDR, Somatic Therapy and Reiki at this treatment center as a trauma therapist part-time. Although working with trauma is my passion, I lean in and gravitate toward Attachment Theory, Psychodynamic, Family Systems, Gestalt, CBT, Gottman and mindfulness-based techniques. A significant portion of my practice is blended with resourcing, grounding, body awareness and mapping of emotional experiences. My passion for helping to treat trauma has guided additional training in somatic psychotherapy and EMDR treatment. I work primarily with adult individual women, men, couples, and gender fluid identifiers 18+ years of age. I am impassioned to work with diverse ethnicities, those disenfranchised, and members of the LGBTQ community.
