Hello! I’m Counselor Rosie, a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 17 years of experience. I am deeply committed to my work and to helping others navigate life’s challenges. At some point, everyone experiences feeling overwhelmed, confused, sad, or in pain. Therapy offers a space to understand those experiences and move forward with clarity and support.

With over 20 years as a counselor in an education setting and over 5 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and more. I recently retired from my education profession and now devote all my time to my therapy practice. My goal is to build a genuine connection and be someone you feel comfortable turning to as you move toward the life you want.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or stretched thin by anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or life changes, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with individuals who want a space to feel understood, supported, and empowered as they move through challenges and toward meaningful growth. My goal is to create an affirming, compassionate environment where you can show up as you are and begin making sense of what you’re carrying.

I specialize in helping adults navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, and life transitions. My therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques to support clients in building coping skills, emotional balance, and self-awareness. I am known for my empathetic nature, active listening skills, and patient approach, creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can feel heard and understood. I believe in meeting clients where they are and working collaboratively toward meaningful and lasting change. To accommodate busy schedules, I offer flexible appointment times, including evenings and weekends.

I have worked in both private practice and residential treatment settings with people who have experienced relational trauma. While my recent work has been adolescents in foster care, I have worked with adults of all ages with a variety of presenting issues. I enjoy helping teens and family members impacted by substance use, people struggling with attachment issues and families navigating adoption or the foster care system.

For those who value efficiency. My approach is direct, strategic, and results-driven.

You are driven, smart, and successful. Something is keeping you stuck. Let’s investigate and make real progress. I work a little differently. Direct feedback, thoughtful goals, and therapy that is intentional, not endless.
