I am Dr. Mikaela Rodriguez, a psychiatrist at Mindful Health Northwest. I am accepting new patients into my telepsychiatry practice.

Services Offered:
- Comprehensive ADHD evaluations (2+ visits). I am unable to provide diagnostic assessments for ASD at this time.
- ADHD psychotherapy/skills coaching: I specialize in helping individuals with ADHD develop skills and practical tools tailored to their particular ADHD-related challenges (e.g., time management, organization, planning, motivation, overcoming procrastination, and more...). If any of these areas are causing you to feel stuck, overwhelmed, or stressed, I can help! I also focus on decreasing the shame, stigma, and feelings of inadequacy that often accompany ADHD. My eclectic approach draws from CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, exposure therapy, self-acceptance, and other modalities. My patients describe me as kind, empathetic, supportive, insightful, and non-judgmental, and I strive to live up to those expectations
- Medication management and psychotherapy for anxiety, depression, cannabis & alcohol-related issues, OCD, insomnia/sleep disorders, phobias, skin-picking/hair-pulling behaviors, perfectionism, people-pleasing, relationship-related concerns, and other general mental health needs.

Please note that because my practice is virtual-only:
• I do not prescribe controlled substances which include stimulants (e.g., Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta, Vyvanse, others) and some medications used for anxiety or insomnia (benzodiazepines and others e.g., Xanax, Ativan, Klonopin, Valium, Ambien, Lunesta, Sonata, others). If stimulants are indicated, I can collaborate with a PCP or other prescriber, sharing treatment recommendations with them.
• I am unable to provide adequate care for clients with recent suicidal behaviors, recent or frequent psychiatric hospitalizations/ED visits, or other urgent/emergent needs.

In my free time I enjoy hiking and camping with my dog in the PNW, learning Spanish, and traveling to Spanish-speaking countries.
