Hello! My name is Michelle Garza-Rodriguez, LCSW. If you are reading this, you may be at a point in your life where you are overwhelmed, struggling with past or current difficulties or symptoms, or just need someone to listen. I have close to 20 years of experience in mental health treatment, which has allowed me to meet my clients where they are at, use evidence based practice to diagnose, treat and assist in improving many patients' lives.

If you are in the process of making sure we make a good fit, we can meet for an assessment and discuss your needs. I provide sessions in both English and Spanish. At the end of the day, I want you to feel you have a good match with your therapist. I look forward to meeting with you, and working together on your treatment goals.

Therapist

Virtual • California


Life can throw a new challenge that we need help from a third perspective. That is why I like helping people to empower themselves with what's needed in order to fill the gap and reduce barriers to next level of success in their treatment goal(s)! Often than not, our environmental or relational dynamic in life is the most difficult matters to change or resolve. My clinical work focus on the important subjects that often trigger and precipitate mood symptoms from those relational and environmental disruptions in life.

My communication style is direct - meaning using open-communication and empowerment to the core issues or reason that you are facing the obstacles in life to help you stabilize your life and mental health as prompt manner as possible. I also practice open-communication style by allowing people to ask questions when you have a question about the therapy process or me as your therapist. I will try to answer the best way I can with respect to healthy therapeutic boundary as applicable.
