Rose Neugroschel

Hi! I am a licensed clinical social worker with 10 years of clinical experience. I specialize in treating adults with anxiety, depression and mild eating disorders. Additional areas include executive functioning support and support through life transitions. My clinical experience includes group practice, medical social work, crisis intervention, employee assistance, management consultation, and community mental health.

I am passionate about helping people examine how diet culture rules have impacted them, and explore what a unique self-directed relationship to food and your body might look like, based on your physical desire, nutrition, health and well being.

I aim to be non-judgmental, upfront (and sometimes blunt) and supportive.

My approach to treatment is collaborative, individualized, supportive yet practical, grounded in CBT yet guided by psychodynamic principles. I am trained in a variety of therapies that examine our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions.

We'll explore the problems you're dealing with, how you currently manage, and explore steps towards making realistic changes that you want to make at your own pace. If relevant, we'll explore how past and current relationship patterns have impacted your current way of viewing yourself, others, and the world.

I am to provide a balance of listening and feedback based on your preference. Together, we may identify the mini-goals that will help you make some progress on your bigger goals. I may use a combination of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to provide support with managing difficult emotions and thoughts, helping you identify what matters to you, and examining whether you feel your behaviors need to more align with your values.

I believe that health comes in a variety of sizes and shapes, and may offer attuned eating and movement strategies and support with challenging "food rules" if relevant.

We will go at your own pace. The first session is a chance for me to get to know you, explore what brought you here, and what you hope to get out of therapy. We will do this along with rapport building, as building trust is needed for therapy to be effective. We'll collaborate to identify areas that you want to work on and goals that are realistic.
