About Dr. Rodriguez
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor specializing in individual, couples and family therapy, and maintain a private practice in North Port, FL.
With over 20 years experience as a marriage and family therapist, and as a graduate of Walden University in Minneapolis, MN, specializing in brief therapy, I am currently a private practitioner working with a broad spectrum of clients.
In addition to being a prominent relationship therapist, I have presented at local conferences and to general audiences speaking on the topics of ADHD, stress, and relationship issues.
I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist. This therapeutic approach is favored by clients who are seeking an aggressive solution to their present concerns. I also integrate an eclectic approach utilizing techniques from Reality Therapy to Client-Centered Therapy while individualizing each treatment plan to the specific concerns of the client. With over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults, I will work with you to strengthen your commitment to personal growth.
