About Rosa
Rosa Salja-Mota is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 15 years of experience. She offers bilingual care in English and Spanish and focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and low self-esteem. Rosa also supports people facing grief, anger, relationship concerns, LGBT issues, and life transitions.
Rosa practices from a client-centered standpoint, which means she begins by listening and meeting people where they are emotionally. She integrates cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Mindfulness skills and elements of dialectical behavior therapy are used when people need tools to tolerate distress and regulate emotion. Sessions tend to be practical and collaborative. Rosa helps clients set short-term goals, learn coping strategies, and practice techniques between meetings.
She also has experience with hospice and end-of-life counseling and with seasonal affective disorder, so she can offer targeted support when those concerns are present. People can work with her by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, and she accepts international clients. Her approach is warm and straightforward, emphasizing compassion, active listening, and steady progress.
Rosa holds a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credential in Florida and Arizona, and she uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To get started, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions based on availability.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Rosa commonly uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening closely and building a trusting relationship first. That approach helps people feel heard and decide what to work on together. Cognitive behavioral therapy is also part of her practice; CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical techniques to change them.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rosa will work with each person to identify their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. She emphasizes teamwork and clear steps so progress can be tracked and refined over time.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving options for different needs. Video works well for regular sessions when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or need less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These formats make it possible to get consistent help without rearranging major parts of daily life.
