Desiré Carolina Rodriguez, MBA, MSCP, AMFT

The therapeutic experience should feel tailored to your needs and leave you feeling seen, heard, safe, and understood. For therapy to feel this way takes personal experience and wisdom, moving beyond a one-size-fits-all therapeutic approach, to one that is tailored to you and your needs. 

It took me time, experience, and many years of therapy to come around to the idea that life happens for us, not to us. We can let our traumatic experiences define the future, or choose to live in the here and now, thus increasing our ability to witness our thoughts, emotions, and experiences with compassion. Through this, we gain perspective, we reach forgiveness and healing. I know, because I too have been there. 

My therapeutic approach is individualized to all aspects of exploring you (your past experiences, current needs, and aspirations). I have experience working with English & Spanish speaking adolescents, young adults, adults, couples, and families in addition to facilitating multiple trauma-focused groups. My clients have navigated depression, eating disorders, anxiety, major life changes, sexual abuse, domestic violence, and other complexities.
