LMFT #132555
As a Mental Health Advocate of Puerto Rican descent, born and raised in the South Bronx, I completed my MA in Community Mental Health from the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in San Francisco, CA. My ideal client is a deeply introspective individual who may identify as highly sensitive, intuitive, or newly aware of these traits after years of feeling misunderstood or stigmatized. They may be navigating the aftermath of trauma, grappling with feelings of inadequacy, or struggling to feel grounded in their sense of self. Their needs include a safe, compassionate space to explore their inner world, reconnect with their body, and process challenging emotions. They seek to better understand their experiences, heal unresolved wounds, and embrace their unique gifts. I specialize in trauma-informed care, attachment-based therapy, and psychedelic integration. Using a bottom-up approach, I help clients understand their nervous system, heal wounds, and embrace their gifts to build resilience and empowerment. You deserve a safe, supportive space to explore your emotions and rediscover your strength. If this resonates, I invite you to reach out—I’m here to walk with you on your journey toward healing and true authencity.

I grew up in a small town in the Central Valley and have called Sacramento home for over 10 years. I currently serve as an Administrative Assistant, bringing empathy, compassion, and a strong sense of organization to my work. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from California State University, Sacramento, and I am currently pursuing a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Art Therapy at the California Institute of Integral Studies. I’m deeply passionate about building community and believe in the power of play—a concept often forgotten in adulthood but vital for well-being. I also advocate for destigmatizing and decolonizing mental health, with a focus on creating spaces that are inclusive and affirming. As someone who is part of the LGBTQ community, I bring a commitment to fostering understanding, acceptance, and connection in all that I do.

Nyob zoo and welcome.
Many of the individuals, couples, and families I work with are navigating the weight of intergenerational trauma, cultural expectations, and relationship patterns that feel overwhelming or hard to name. This can show up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, conflict in relationships, or challenges in parenting,especially when past experiences or family dynamics continue to shape the present. My work is deeply rooted in supporting clients from Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities, as well as People of Color, with an understanding of how culture, identity, migration, family roles, and systemic stressors influence emotional well-being and relationships. I take an integrative, trauma-informed approach, drawing from narrative therapy, strengths-based and holistic practices. I also incorporate somatic methods, including Brainspotting, to help clients process trauma held in the body—particularly when experiences feel difficult to put into words or when stress shows up physically, emotionally, or relationally. I am especially passionate about working with teens, couples, and families from diverse and multicultural backgrounds. In my work with couples and families, I focus on strengthening communication, fostering emotional safety, and supporting healthier ways of relating that honor each person’s voice, cultural context, and lived experience.

Welcome! If you’re looking for more balance, meaning, or simply a safe space to work through life’s challenges, I’m here to support you. I enjoy working with people who are motivated and goal-oriented, as well as those who may have spent much of their lives feeling misunderstood. My approach is flexible and down-to-earth, drawing from psychodynamic therapy, CBT, DBT, somatic practices, and solution-focused techniques. I believe in meeting you where you are with compassion, using trauma-informed, strength-based, and holistic tools to help you reconnect with your resilience. I often weave in mindfulness and self-compassion practices, inspired by Buddhist psychology, to help create more ease and presence. I enjoy helping clients get more in touch with their nervous systems in a way that is both easy to understand and easy to integrate in daily life. I specialize in supporting children, families, couples, and individuals navigating anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma, and I affirm and celebrate LGBTQIA2+ and neurodivergent identities. Every person’s story is unique, and I honor the experiences that have shaped you. Above all, I strive to create a calm, supportive space where you feel seen and empowered on your healing journey.

ASW #135102
Hello, and welcome. My name is Angelina Rodriguez, and I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ASW) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion and practical support. I am a Sacramento native, a first-generation Mexican American, and the first in my family to pursue higher education. I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Social Work from Sacramento State University. My personal experiences have given me deep insight into the challenges of balancing cultural expectations, family responsibilities, identity, and personal growth — and I strive to create a space where clients feel understood, supported, and empowered. Professionally, I have experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating mental illness, trauma, substance use, domestic violence, incarceration, and major life transitions. I have worked with families impacted by pediatric cancer and within the prison system providing mental health services — and I bring both professional knowledge and personal understanding to this work. I have also supported families involved in the child welfare system, helping parents strengthen relationships and navigate complex family challenges. My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, strengths-based practices, mindfulness, and person-centered approaches to help clients build coping skills, increase self-awareness, and create meaningful change. As a bilingual therapist, I provide services in both English and Spanish and am committed to culturally responsive care. I believe healing begins with connection, and whether you are facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, or challenges related to identity and family expectations, I am here to walk alongside you.
