Marcella Rodriguez

Marcella Rodriguez

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am passionate about supporting young adults and first-generation individuals as they navigate life transitions, anxiety, depression, and the many pressures that can come with finding your place in the world. I understand that balancing personal goals, family expectations, relationships, career decisions, and cultural experiences can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when you are trying to create a path that feels authentic to you.

My background includes both direct clinical practice and consulting with schools and community-based organizations to help strengthen the way mental health services are delivered. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how our environments, relationships, identities, and communities can influence our emotional well-being.

I deeply value the healing journey and believe therapy works best as a collaborative process. My role is not to tell you who to be or what choices to make, but to help you better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and find a path forward that feels meaningful to you. Together, we can work toward greater clarity, resilience, confidence, and a stronger sense of centeredness in your life.

Therapy is a way of showing up for yourself, a path of self discovery where you can reconnect with who you are today and the life you truly want. I’ve supported people navigating addiction, trauma, depression, and anxiety, and I believe deeply in meeting you exactly where you are and wherever you feel ready to begin. Together, our sessions become a collaborative journey, with me holding safe, steady space for you as you grow into the person you’ve always had it within you to become.

Thomas Moore

Thomas Moore

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m Thomas Moore, LPCC, a licensed professional clinical counselor providing therapy for individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, identity development, and complex relational patterns. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in repeating cycles such as overthinking, people pleasing, emotional shutdown, intense reactions, or difficulty maintaining stable relationships even when they logically understand what they should do. My goal is to help you translate insight into real change.

My approach is structured and compassionate. I integrate evidence based methods including cognitive restructuring, emotional regulation training, interpersonal effectiveness skills, and trauma informed therapy. Sessions focus on understanding why your brain reacts the way it does and building practical tools you can actually use outside the therapy room. This is not only about talking through problems but learning how to respond differently when they show up in real life.

I work well with clients who want more than passive support and are ready to build skills, increase self awareness, and interrupt patterns that no longer serve them.

What clients should know before starting

Therapy with me is collaborative and active and you will learn strategies rather than only venting. We will work on understanding both the emotional and neurological side of your reactions. Sessions focus on present day functioning while also addressing past experiences that still affect you. I may gently challenge patterns when it supports growth while maintaining a supportive and respectful space. Progress often comes from small repeated changes rather than sudden breakthroughs.

If you are looking for therapy that combines validation with practical change, we will likely work well together.
