LUISA RODRIGUEZ, LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, dedicated to supporting children, at-risk youth, young adults, and families. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of helping individuals navigate a wide range of emotional and developmental challenges, including autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, and anger management. I also bring extensive experience in crisis intervention and emotional regulation, helping clients feel seen, grounded, and supported during life’s toughest moments.

When working with children and adolescents, I focus on creating a warm, nurturing space where they feel safe to express themselves and explore their emotions. I draw on evidence-based therapeutic approaches that align with each child’s developmental needs, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), play therapy, and mindfulness techniques. These methods help children strengthen communication and social skills, build resilience, and develop lasting healthy coping strategies.

I also provide parenting support and family therapy, working closely with caregivers to improve understanding, communication, and consistency at home. I believe that when families come together to face challenges, meaningful and lasting change is possible. My goal is to empower both children and parents with tools that bring more balance, harmony, and connection to their daily lives.

My experience across diverse settings, including in-home services, schools, group homes, and community mental health programs, has given me a deep understanding of how environments shape a child’s behavior and emotional well-being. This insight allows me to tailor my approach to meet each family’s unique circumstances and goals. I am passionate about helping families identify concerns early and guiding them toward positive, lasting outcomes.

As a bilingual therapist (English/Spanish), I am committed to providing culturally sensitive care that ensures every family feels heard, respected, and understood. I believe that everyone deserves access to compassionate, professional support that helps them thrive.

If you’re looking for a safe and compassionate place for your child or family to heal and grow, I would be honored to meet you and begin this journey together.
