Rodriguez Psychological Services PLLC

You’re the one everyone leans on—but no one asks how you’re really doing. You’ve kept it all together for everyone else, but lately you’re wondering: what about me?

You feel caught between the person your family needed you to be and the one you’re trying to become. Setting boundaries feels hard—and living without them feels harder.

You’re tired of repeating emotional patterns, but unsure how to break them. You long for peace, presence, and the ability to show up fully—as a parent, a partner, or simply as yourself.

You might be struggling with:

  • Adjusting to the emotional highs and lows of pregnancy or postpartum, and wondering if what you’re feeling is “normal.”

  • Feeling overwhelmed in early parenthood, unsure how to care for yourself while caring for your child.

  • Navigating a major life transition—starting a new role, entering adulthood, or stepping into parenting without a clear guide.

  • Carrying the pressure of being the first in your family to pursue healing, higher education, or a different path.

  • Trying to balance your culture, family expectations, and personal identity, and feeling torn between them.

  • Struggling with anxiety, burnout, or guilt—and unsure where to start when it comes to setting boundaries or asking for help.

If any of this feels familiar, you're not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own either.

Whether you're stepping into new roles, unpacking your past, or finding your way back to yourself—I’m here to help you feel grounded, seen, and supported.

Hello, I’m Dr. Ashley Rodriguez- thank you for stopping by.

I’m a licensed psychologist and certified perinatal mental health provider with a practice rooted in relational, trauma-informed care. As a Nuyorican and bicultural therapist, I understand the complexity of holding multiple identities, navigating family expectations, and forging your own path.

My mission is to provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed therapy that supports BIPOC and first-generation adults—especially those in the perinatal period or navigating intergenerational trauma. I aim to create a space where you can feel emotionally safe, culturally seen, and supported in healing on your own terms.

Whether you're parenting for the first time, breaking cycles from your own childhood, or figuring out who you are beyond your roles—I’m here to walk alongside you as you reconnect with your voice, your boundaries, and your values.

It doesn’t have to feel this heavy.

I help BIPOC and first-gen adults move through life transitions with more clarity, self-trust, and compassion—especially in the tender seasons of parenting, identity shifts, and intergenerational healing.

You don’t have to figure it all out at once.

We’ll work at your pace, exploring the “shoulds” you’ve been carrying and building new ways of being that feel aligned, sustainable, and true to you.
