Rachelle Rodriguez
Bio:My name is Rachelle and I moved to San Diego two years ago to attend graduate school to become a therapist. Within those two years, I became a military wife and a mother. Trying to balance all of these different roles has been difficult to say the least but I refused to give up. I am now graduating next month in June and have recently realized that I want to specialize as a postpartum therapist. I really want to gain experience with this population not only for my career but because of the empathy I have towards moms.Specialty/Interest:
Currently an MFT Trainee interested in gaining experience in perinatal care. I am a new mom myself and postpartum was quite a transition for me. I experienced postpartum anxiety and it was a dark time for me. It made me realize how much I want to be that support for mothers that I didn’t have when my child was born.
