MANDEE RODRIGUEZ, CSW

I know how hard it can be to take the first step to reach out for help and because of that, I consider it such a privilege to do this work alongside my clients. I want to empower those that I work with to live happier, healthier, and more meaningful lives. I strongly believe that everyone has strengths which can be used to foster positive change and growth. I am passionate about perinatal mental health, the postpartum experience, and women’s issues in general. I also focus my work on those who may be experiencing life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem, as well as members of the LGBTQ+ community.

I aim to create a safe and inclusive environment and use an eclectic and integrated approach to therapy. I have training in:

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Motivational Interviewing (MI)
  • Mindfulness-Based Strategies
  • Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
  • Written Exposure Therapy (WET)

I view therapy as a collaborative process, and I work hard to meet my clients where they are. I strive to make our time together as warm, safe, and welcoming as possible because I understand how challenging it can be to be vulnerable with someone new.
