About Rose

Rose Perez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and concerns related to sexual orientation and identity.

Background and approach

With 13 years of clinical experience, she blends practical strategies and a strengths-based outlook to help clients recognize patterns that get in the way of daily functioning and satisfaction. Rose emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring support to each person’s circumstances.

Her work commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to explore how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact, and she also integrates client-centered principles and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when they fit a client’s goals. Rose highlights past and present successes as resources for change and collaborates with clients to shape realistic steps forward.

She offers sessions in a variety of remote formats and works with adults seeking to improve mood, interpersonal communication, coping with chronic illness or pain, workplace challenges, and related life transitions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Rose uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and test alternative responses; this approach often helps with anxiety, depression, panic, and workplace stress by breaking problems into manageable steps. She also incorporates client-centered therapy, which prioritizes empathic listening and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel heard and involved in shaping goals. When appropriate, skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy are used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for people struggling with impulsivity, intense emotions, or relationship difficulties.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Rose works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so the plan remains practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit regular work on goals into a busy life. These options allow clients to connect from different locations, maintain continuity between sessions, and use a communication style that feels most comfortable while working on stress, mood, communication, and other concerns.
