Gabriela Rodriguez, PhD

Psychologist
GA
Hi there, I'm Gabriela! I am a licensed clinical psychologist in Georgia. I completed my Ph.D. at Ponce Health Sciences University in Puerto Rico. I am fully bilingual and can provide therapy in both English and Spanish. Most of my work is treating anxiety-related disorders, OCD, and working with LGBTQ+ communities. My approach In psychotherapy, I combine multiple therapy models depending on the client's needs. The therapy models I work with are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Affirmative Therapy (LGBTQ+ communities), Exposure with response prevention, and supportive therapy. I work with adults experiencing OCD symptoms, anxiety, and stress. My focus I enjoy working with clients who are struggling with uncertainty, doubt, worry, anxiety, and OCD symptoms. Using the CBT model, clients that are willing to do homework will benefit from my approach, since CBT and ERP will require exercises the client will do at home on their own. My communication style I am a great listener, warm, and empathetic person. My therapy sessions are a safe space where the client won't be judged and they can express what they want. I use humor in the sessions, when appropriate, to lighten the mood, especially when people feel nervous about therapy. I appreciate and value clients' feedback on how they are feeling about the therapy process since I don't have a way of knowing if something is working for them or not. My journey to therapy I enjoy listening to people describe their inner world. I appreciate learning about them and what are their needs. With my CBT training, I provide the skills to identify, explore, analyze, and challenge thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that aren't benefiting the client. With my Mindfulness training, I provide the skills for the client to appreciate and become more aware of their here and now without judging their experience. With my affirmative therapy approach, I provide acceptance, affirmation, and safety to LGBTQ+ communities that need.
