Nick Rodriguez, LCSW
About Me
I am a licensed clinical social worker with a deep foundation in both clinical practice and therapeutic research. My career began in assisting with research focused on developing new treatments for veterans struggling with emotion regulation and attention difficulties following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and PTSD. This work gave me a unique, evidence-based perspective on how trauma impacts the brain and behavior.
I also worked for several years in community mental health across the San Francisco Bay Area, working directly with diverse adults facing complex life challenges. Today, I combine that hands-on experience with my research background to provide practical, grounded therapy for adults navigating anxiety, stress, and trauma. I am also actively expanding my practice to support adolescents, bringing the same rigor and compassion to teens and their families.
Whether you're looking to manage daily stress or process deeper trauma, I'm here to work alongside you with honesty and clear direction.
