Ana Rodriguez, MS, LPC (she/her) -- License # 77500

Intuitive, Wise, Joyful, & Adventurous

Founder, CEO, Psychological Advisor, EMDR-Trained, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapist

Ana Maria Rodriguez is a licensed clinical mental health therapist, psychological advisor, international speaker, and the founder and owner of Selva Wellness Collective in Austin, Texas. Over more than twelve years of clinical work at the intersection of trauma, attachment, nervous system science, and identity, she built one of the most sought after practices in her field and created the Selva Method - a framework for whole person transformation that works simultaneously across the body, the psychology, and the lineage.

Ana works as a psychological advisor with founders, athletes, executives, creatives, and high visibility leaders who are accomplished and self aware and who sense that something beneath the surface remains unresolved. The presenting challenge varies. The underlying architecture is always the same. Her work reaches it with a precision and depth that neither therapy nor coaching alone can offer.

Her clinical training spans EMDR, IFS, attachment-based therapy, somatic experiencing, and trauma-informed depth psychology. As a licensed clinician she brings modalities that no coach is trained or permitted to use - and the range to go wherever the work leads, including alongside clients at the highest levels of performance and visibility.

As a bicultural Latina and longtime advocate for marginalized communities, Ana built Selva on a conviction that clinical rigor and radical inclusion are not in conflict. Selva actively centers care for LGBTQIA+ individuals, BIPOC communities, and those whose healing has been underserved or overlooked. That commitment is not peripheral to the work. It is foundational to it.

Selva Wellness Collective has grown into a multidisciplinary team of clinicians, healers, and wellness practitioners united by a single belief: that lasting transformation requires working with the whole person. Ana continues to see a small number of private advisory clients while leading retreats, speaking publicly, and completing her first book.

Personal

Outside of her work, Ana finds joy in beauty, creativity, and intentional living. She loves to cook meals inspired by her Colombian roots, travel the world, explore new restaurants, and share meaningful conversations around a table. She grounds herself through meditation, writing, painting, and movement-whether that's tennis, long walks, or time outdoors with her three dogs.

In Austin, you'll often find Ana at the farmers market with a coffee and pastry in hand, laughing with her husband, or soaking up sunshine with her pups. She believes healing isn't only what happens in a session-it's also how we choose to live, love, slow down, and return to ourselves at the end of every day.
