Meet Hendrina Sterling Rodriguez

I’m Hendrina Sterling Rodríguez — Online Therapist of the Year 2024/25 (Prestige Awards UK) — and a trauma-informed therapist and coach who believes in the transformative power of calm, clarity, and conscious change.

As a mother, a traveler, and someone who’s rebuilt her life from the inside out, I understand how crucial it is to find balance in our inner world — especially when life feels overwhelming, disconnected, or uncertain.

I help individuals and couples move through emotional collapse, betrayal, anxiety, or burnout — and into clarity, empowerment, and meaningful relationships. My work is grounded, practical, and emotionally safe — not just a space to talk, but a space to shift.

I work best with people who are ready to stop repeating old patterns and start living with purpose. If you’re ready for real, sustained change — not just insight, but action — I’d love to work with you.

I keep my private client list limited so I can offer focused, high-quality support. If you’re ready to take your next step, I’m here to walk it with you.

✨ From £10 to Purpose: A Phoenix Rises

I still remember arriving in England with just £10 in my pocket and a heart full of hope.

Today, I’m deeply honoured to be named Online Therapist of the Year 2024/25 (South West England) by the Prestige Awards.

This recognition isn’t just a personal achievement—it’s a symbol of resilience for anyone who has ever had to start over, rise from burnout, or rebuild after heartbreak.

🌀 From my early NHS years to founding Mind Empower Therapy and creating the Phoenix Series™, this journey has been about turning pain into purpose—and helping others do the same.

📖 My story will be featured in the upcoming Prestige Awards Magazine. Stay tuned.

With gratitude and fire,
Hendrina Sterling Rodriguez 🕊️

Find Purpose. Heal Relationships. Create a Life You Love.

Get Unstuck. Reconnect. Realign.

I work with adults and couples who feel emotionally stretched, disconnected, or overwhelmed. If you’re carrying the weight of life without support, let’s change that.

You may be experiencing:
Burnout or chronic stress despite being “high functioning”
Emotional exhaustion or a feeling of being lost
Communication breakdowns in your relationship
Disconnection from your purpose, direction, or identity
Inner pressure to do more, be more, fix more — without rest.

You don’t need a diagnosis to ask for help. Just a willingness to explore something different.

Existential, Relational & Coaching-Based

This isn’t traditional therapy focused only on symptoms or labels. I integrate relational depth with solution-focused tools, using an existential lens to explore identity, meaning, and emotional patterns.
Sessions are conversational, goal-oriented, and deeply supportive — designed to meet you where you are, without judgment or over-analysis.
I combine trauma-informed psychology, coaching strategies, and emotional insight to help you reconnect with who you are and how you want to live.

Sophie Meyer

Austria

It was a pleasure to talk to Hendrina who was very friendly, engaging and professional. I had a specific issue that I was struck on, Hendrina worked with me until I resolved it and I’m very thankful for her help.

Colum Muldoon

Northern Ireland

After a three-vehicle collision left me struggling with PTSD, I first tried talk therapy but needed a more action-oriented approach. Hendrina provided exactly that—offering exercises, journals, and deep insights into the connection between past trauma and physical health. She not only helped me heal but also guided me to external resources, allowing me to better understand my mind, body, and spirit in the context of trauma.
