Do you feel anxious or feeling depressed for too long? Feeling caught in a binge/restrict cycle, or looking for a non-judgmental space to explore body image concerns? Then you may have come to the right place.
Hi, I'm Rose. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and mental health therapist in Asheville NC. I specialize in treating adults with anxiety, depression and mild eating disorder/body image concerns.
Finding a therapist can be exhausting and anxiety-provoking, but it doesn't have to be. Therapy just needs to be "good enough" for whatever you need support with, at that point in your life.
I take a collaborative, trauma-informed, integrative approach to treatment. Treatment modalities I pull from include cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and motivational interiewing. I take a Health at Every Size Approach (HAES).
As a feminist therapist, I view struggles not just as personal ones, but rooted in the social, cultural, and political contexts surrounding us. I offer in-person therapy for adults in Western North Carolina.
My therapeutic style is collaborative and curious. I view therapy as a partnership. I aim to be non-judgmental and intentional with asking questions to support you in arriving at your own conclusions and in resolving ambiguity about change.
I strive to hold a safe space for you to process emotions and situations. I hope to offer different ways of thinking and responding, to help you better regulate.
I have 10 years of clinical experience and have worked in a variety of settings, including medical social work with liver transplant patients, employee assistance, community mental health, and group practice. I am an eternal learner. I love being in nature, the gym, and having goals to work on.
I welcome clients of all sexual orientations and gender identities. You are the expert of your story, and I hope to support you in your wellness journey.
Currently open for new clients in NC, DC, VA and CO.
