Elise Rodriguez
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT)
We are a team of therapists here to serve you. Our core value is that everyone is special and matters.
I am the mother of four children and the wife of a military vet. I became a therapist because my passion is to help families and individuals live the most abundant life possible. I have experienced love and loss, joy and sadness, and have overcome many obstacles. I learned to love nature walks to calm my soul, and I enjoy reading and relaxing on my couch. Life may throw me lemons, but I have learned to make lemonade (with a little bit of sugar). Laughing is my specialty (and, boy, do I laugh loud)! I enjoy a good joke, and I love to have fun with friends and family. My motto in life is John 10:10 – “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”
