Esperanza (Hopey) Rodriguez,
Meet Esperanza,
I have worked with a variety of individuals, ranging in age, sex, economic, and educational backgrounds. My education in social work led me to work in a nonprofit for years, where I was exposed to working with different groups of individuals, specifically in areas of high need. I eventually worked with middle and high school-aged youth, educating them on health and relationship topics, and providing a referral system for them and their family for any needs.
I received my bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at El Paso with a concentration in social work. Currently, I’m attending Texas Tech University Health Sciences for my master’s in clinical mental health counseling. I consider myself empathetic about a client’s worldview, and my approach is client-centered. I have worked with youth for over ten years and maintain training in both sand tray therapy and EMDR.
