Bilingual Psychotherapist hotherapist
Nathalie Rodriguez, LPC, is a bilingual psychotherapist offering in-person and virtual therapy across Illinois. As a first-generation Mexican-American and eldest daughter of immigrants from Jalisco and Michoacán, she deeply understands the pressure to carry others while figuring things out for yourself. Nathalie’s own healing journey through therapy showed her the power of being seen and supported — and inspired her to offer that same space to others.
Her therapy style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Whether you’re struggling with family boundaries, identity confusion, or anxiety, Nathalie creates a space that feels more like a conversation with someone who gets it. Clients often describe her as playful and real, someone who brings humor into the healing process without losing depth or compassion.
Nathalie works especially well with first-gen clients, children of immigrants, and those feeling caught between cultures. She blends Emotionally Focused Therapy, somatic work, mindfulness, narrative therapy, and creative practices to help clients reconnect with themselves and build relationships rooted in honesty and care.
She believes mental health isn’t weakness, it’s brave. You deserve support that honors where you come from and where you’re going.
"Mental health is not weakness, it’s brave. It’s choosing yourself, sometimes for the first time"
We know Latinx mental health is shaped by more than stress. Things like language, family loyalty, shame and gender roles al impact how we carry and express pain. You don’t have to translate your story here-we get it.
Nathalie helps first-gen Latinx clients navigate identity, boundaries, and bicultural life through therapy that’s honest, playful, and deeply rooted in cultura.
You don’t have to carry everything on your own. Whether you’re in Chicago or anywhere in Illinois, Nathalie is here to support your healing and help you feel more at home in yourself.
