Catherine Rodriguez

My name is Catherine Rodriguez, and I’ve been where you are now.

Long before I started focusing on providing support and business coaching for new therapists, I was a new therapist myself. And, I faced many of the same struggles you’re likely facing now.

I left my 20-year corporate career after severe burnout, not knowing who I was or where I wanted to go. I explored various paths and became certified as a personal-development coach, because I knew I wanted to work with people to help them on their journey.

When I discovered that so many of my clients were suffering from depression, I realized my purpose and went to graduate school for counseling psychology to become a licensed psychotherapist.

As I embarked on this new career path, I hit several walls as I worked to establish myself in the profession in a way that aligned with my vision and mission. I sought the support of others and haphazardly found my way to my preferred therapy niche. As I worked through these struggles in my career, I thought that there must be a more intentional, smoother way to create a roadmap that guides us to career happiness.

After getting licensed and launching my private practice with my ideal therapy clients, I fostered my desire to support new therapists.

I worked with new therapists in therapy through their parallel process; I became a clinical supervisor supporting early-career therapists in their work with clients and on their journeys toward licensure; I provided coaching and consultation to newly-licensed therapists in creating their ideal private practice.

All of these experiences inform my mission to provide support and business coaching for the next generation of therapists so they can have the life and career they love.

I want to help you navigate your career path in a way that’s intentional versus haphazard. Let’s align your work with your highest values, vision, and mission using my special career-path development tool: the North Star Therapist Roadmap.
