Hendrina Sterling Rodriguez helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, or big life changes. She introduces steady, practical steps so clients can start feeling more in control. Hendrina is bilingual in English and Spanish and brings ten years of practice in both NHS and personal settings to her work.

Her style is counselling-led and focused on the present. Sessions aim to be straightforward and collaborative.

Background and approach

She uses skills from cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy alongside client-centred listening to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping. Hendrina also draws on attachment-based ideas when relationship issues are central. That helps when people struggle with trust, abandonment worries, or communication problems.

She supports those dealing with trauma-related symptoms through trauma-informed care, while noting she does not provide long-term intensive trauma processing on this platform. Practical goals are a guiding principle. People work on clear aims such as reducing panic, managing anger, improving self-esteem, or handling parenting stress.

Sessions include skill-building, problem-solving, and gentle exploration of feelings as needed. Her practice accepts international clients and uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Cost varies with location and appointments are arranged through a subscription system that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches that suit online counselling

Hendrina commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and accept difficult feelings while choosing actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, low mood, and finding direction. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and communication, which can be useful for addressing abandonment, trust, and connection issues.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Hendrina will discuss options and try approaches that fit a person’s goals and situation. The choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made, with the therapist checking in about what helps most.

Online formats make this flexible. Video calls let for face-to-face conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, want shorter touchpoints, or need a way to work through issues between longer sessions. These options support different rhythms of therapy and make it simpler to fit counselling into a busy life.
