About

Welcome to Find A Therapist! You've taken a huge step, and I'm sure you're wondering how this works and whether it's the right fit for you. I know I felt the same way when I first came to Find A Therapist too.

My name is Andrea Rodriguez and I'm a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner in the State of Nebraska. I earned my Master of Counseling degree, specializing in Trauma and Family Violence, from Wayne State College in 2008. I've worked in many different settings with individuals and families who have a variety of personal issues such as depression/anxiety, stress, family problems, trauma/abuse, parenting, relationships, and more. Over the past 12 years as a clinician, my experience has taught me that the most important aspect of counseling by far is the connection and comfort you feel with the person you choose to share your personal struggles. I believe we can all grow through challenging experiences by increasing our self-awareness. I feel it is great talking to someone who isn't in our immediate circle that can offer a unique perspective and additional support. I can help bring movement on a difficult situation when you may be feeling stuck. We all want to be able to share our personal experiences and truths and be accepted and understood. I believe it's very important to be open-minded and non-judgmental when someone shares their personal story or experiences with me. Our relationship with our self and others has worth and is useful to explore in counseling.

You are welcome to message me anytime through Find A Therapist. The frequency with which you can have access to a counselor to work through day to day emotions and problem solving is extremely beneficial for most and a nice change from traditional outpatient counseling. I check my messages daily. I offer messaging, live chat and phone sessions with limited availability in the evenings and weekends.

I look forward to working with you!
