About Rosario

My focus is to help families and couples who are struggling with difficult life transitions, trauma and depression find renewed hope in life. 

​

Through my extensive work in the field for over the past eight years in various settings and with diverse populations I have developed a multi faceted approach in helping children, families, couples and adults heal. I find great joy in creating a unique therapeutic experience that is tailored to you, which is why I integrate different approaches into my practice. I meaningfully aim to provide you with a different perspective on your situation that can help you obtain clarity and peace. I support you by increasing your awareness of the deep fears and strong emotions that may be holding you back and leaving you feeling stuck. 

​

My goal is to deeply connect with your personal experience, provide you with a trusting and non-judgmental environment to foster a collaborative process so that together we can create life long changes.      I don't just find temporary solutions that may help fix your current situation but rather, I believe in transformation, which is often a process that takes patience and commitment.

​

Therapy is an investment in your emotional and mental well being, so finding a therapist that makes you feel comfortable is key. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
