About Rosa
Rosa Gomez Duque is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. She offers care in English and Spanish and draws on six years of clinical experience in California. She encourages resilience and practical steps to cope with life changes.
She grew up in Colombia and completed a bachelor’s degree in psychology before moving to the United States in 2005.
Background and approach
In 2012 she finished a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy and has since worked in nonprofit settings. That background includes working with children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of concerns. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental.
She aims to help people notice what life is teaching them and to build on their strengths. Sessions often focus on acceptance, empathy, and practical problem solving rather than quick fixes. Rosa describes her approach as holistic and adaptable.
She selects techniques to match each person’s needs, tapping into tools that promote emotional growth and self-understanding. Her goal is to guide people toward solutions they can carry forward on their own. She emphasizes collaboration in the therapy room.
Rosa helps clients identify actionable steps, learn coping skills, and increase self-awareness so they can face future challenges with more confidence.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Rosa describes her work as holistic and adaptable, using techniques that match each person’s needs. One common approach she uses focuses on acceptance and empathy. This helps people face difficult emotions such as anxiety, grief, or shame while learning to tolerate and understand their experience.She also guides clients through practical skill-building for stress and mood management. These techniques teach breathing and grounding strategies, routines to improve sleep, and step-by-step plans to handle upsetting situations. Such skills are useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rosa will talk with clients about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit their situation. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat work well for brief check-ins or on-the-go support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue care during transitions.
