GISSELL RODRIGUEZ

Many clients come to me when traditional talk therapy hasn’t provided the healing they hoped for. They seek a holistic approach to address the root of their pain and long for profound transformation. My clients often feel lost, on auto-pilot, or disconnected from their bodies, loved ones, and the world around them. Others feel overwhelmed by life’s demands or stuck in unhelpful patterns. Together, we create a compassionate space to foster connection, healing, and lasting change.

You’re doing your best. But why does it seem like it’s never enough? You are exhausted and numb. The colors from your world have faded. You feel like you are failing yourself and everyone else. You never imagined your life would be like this. You try to pretend everything is okay but deep down you know you cannot go on like this. You’re not sure how to make a change.

I work with anyone looking to dig deep to heal their sense of self and their relationships. I work with individuals in therapy to identify the problematic thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that stem from our oldest and deepest attachment wounds. I work with couples and ENM partnerships from an attachment perspective - I help partners communicate in a deeper, more attuned way to promote closeness, understanding, and intimacy. I also love working with families that are working through conflict.

Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others around you? Do you feel unsure how to express your true self or live the life you want? As a Gender, Sex, and Relationship Diversity knowledgable therapist, I offer a supportive environment to address issues in life that may be holding you back. Sometimes it is our own beliefs about ourselves or our true potential that is our greatest barrier. Therapy can help uncover those barriers and help you learn skills for living an authentic life.
