About Rosemary
Rosemary Rice is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression, and difficulties with relationships and addiction. She speaks English and Spanish and draws on three years of clinical experience working in California. Her approach aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about tough feelings. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals.
Background and approach
She listens first, then works with each person to choose what will help most. Rosemary uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow the person's lead and build trusting therapy relationships. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches concrete skills to shift them.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are used when emotions feel overwhelming and people need strategies for regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger relationships. These methods are practical and skill-based rather than abstract. People come for many concerns beyond anxiety, including grief, sleep and eating problems, career stress, ADHD, trauma, and caregiver fatigue.
Rosemary works step-by-step to tailor support to each person's goals and situation. She welcomes questions about session formats and what to expect. The focus is on making therapy useful, understandable, and relevant to daily life.
Approaches and online care that focus on skills and comfort
Client-Centered Therapy is about following the person's lead and building a respectful, accepting relationship. It helps when someone needs a steady place to talk and to feel heard before making changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical tools to notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and many stress-related challenges.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication. Those techniques can help when feelings feel intense or relationships are strained.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a team effort. The therapist will work together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy provides flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people talk face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions are useful when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or ongoing support between sessions. These options can make regular care easier to fit into work, family life, and busy schedules.
