About Rose
Rose Perez is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and concerns related to LGBT identity. She also supports those dealing with anger, low self-esteem, and workplace strain. Rose speaks English and brings 13 years of experience to her work in California.
Her style is direct and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that lead to distress. Rose also uses a client-centered stance that looks for strengths clients already have and builds on them.
Clients can expect a mix of skill building and emotional processing. Rose aims to make goals concrete and measurable, whether someone wants fewer panic symptoms, better communication at work, or relief from ongoing sadness. She pays attention to how chronic pain, illness, or disability can intersect with mood and daily functioning.
Her additional focus areas include relationship communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, sexuality, social anxiety, and panic attacks. Rose adapts tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills are needed.
She frames therapy as a partnership that respects each person’s pace and priorities. To begin, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability. The subscription model can be canceled at any time.
How Rose Uses Approaches Online and in Session
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities and strengths. The therapist listens deeply, reflects back what she hears, and helps people notice resources they already have to handle problems.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify thoughts that lead to upset and then tests and changes those thoughts. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and workplace stress and includes practical exercises between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive actions, and tolerating distress. These skills can be useful when anger or strong mood swings interfere with daily life.
Deciding on an approach is collaborative. Rose will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice may change over time as progress is reviewed and priorities shift.
Confirm the available session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use skill practice at home and carry tools into everyday routines.
