ABOUT :
Dr. Javier Rodríguez Cardona
Committed to Mental Health and Well-being
His journey in mental health care started back in 2010, diving into hands-on clinical and administrative roles on acute inpatient services; where he honed skills in crisis intervention, group therapy, training, supervision, and consultation to support those in their most vulnerable moments. By 2015, he advanced his expertise through an APA-accredited internship at the VA Caribbean Healthcare System, immersing himself in general mental health, long-term psychodynamic care, substance use, physical rehabilitation, chronic pain, and chronic illness. The following year, he completed an APA-accredited postdoctoral fellowship in Primary Care Mental Health Integration, focusing on seamlessly embedding evidence-based mental health services into primary care to boost accessibility and real-world outcomes for patients. From there, his commitment has only grown, expanding into diverse areas like supervising interns and postdoctoral fellows in APA-accredited programs, all while providing tailored, compassionate care to first responders, healthcare providers, veterans, high-achievers in demanding professions, and everyday community members facing life's toughest challenges. If these experiences resonate with your own path toward healing, exploring personalized telehealth support could be a meaningful next step
