Nadia Renee Rodoble told the California Board of Behavioral Sciences on Nov. 20 that she has “remained clean and sober” since her arrest and will be celebrating 16 years of sobriety at the end of the month, and asked the board to grant early termination of a disciplinary probation tied to past felony convictions. Rodoble spoke under oath during a petitioner hearing presided over by Administrative Law Judge Christopher Dietrich and presented evidence admitted into the record by Deputy Attorney General Anahita Crawford.

The deputy attorney general summarized the administrative history: Rodoble’s associate clinical social worker registration was issued 07/27/2023 and is valid through 07/31/2026; a statement of issues and a stipulated settlement adopted 07/27/2023 placed her on three years’ probation, arising from felony convictions in the late 2000s, including robbery and child abuse, and resulting criminal sentences and parole. Counsel introduced exhibits including the petition, probation case summary and underlying criminal documentation.

In testimony, Rodoble acknowledged responsibility for her past crimes and detailed steps she said demonstrate rehabilitation: participation in a prison firefighting program for four seasons with CAL FIRE, steady engagement in psychotherapy, completion of an associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degree (MSW with honors), certification as a substance use disorder counselor, and post‑release employment. She told the panel she has worked since October 2022 as a HUD‑VASH social worker with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and said she has helped house more than 50 veterans and their families.

Board members asked about clinical practice and supervision, involvement in recovery programs, and whether she has used her association with service programs to build competence. Rodoble said she has complied with probation requirements, participates in weekly psychotherapy, and relies on supervision and consultation for clinical questions. She acknowledged the remaining eight months on the disciplinary probation as reflected in the record and urged the board to consider her rehabilitation and public service when deciding whether to end supervision early.

Judge Dietrich closed the record after both sides said the matter was submitted to the board. No on‑the‑record decision was issued; the board will deliberate in closed session and mail a written decision to the petitioner.
