About Rose

Rose Perez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, issues related to LGBT identity, low self-esteem, and problems with anger. She also lists life purpose and concerns such as chronic pain and workplace difficulties among her focus areas.

Her approach is practical and skills-focused. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice how thoughts and feelings shape behavior. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the person's perspective and uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when emotion regulation or impulsivity is a problem.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Rose helps clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practices new ways of responding. She also looks for past strengths and successes to build on, which people can use when working through current challenges.

People consult her about anxiety, panic attacks, depression, social anxiety, and issues tied to relationships or work. She lists work around divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and isolation as common topics. Life purpose appears as a named focus for clients reassessing meaning after a major life change.

Rose frames therapy as collaborative. She and the client set priorities and try different strategies to see what fits. Practical tools, repeated practice, and regular check-ins shape the ongoing plan.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Rose often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change thought patterns that lead to anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful behaviors. CBT typically involves identifying specific thoughts, testing them, and practicing alternative responses to reduce symptoms over time.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and impulsivity. DBT skills include mindful awareness, distress tolerance, and techniques for managing intense feelings and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rose aims to match methods to a person's goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. She will discuss options and adapt the plan as progress is reviewed so clients can see what fits best.

The biography does not specify which online session types are offered, so confirm current session formats before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can suit a work break, audio-only sessions can reduce bandwidth needs, and remote meetings remove travel time. Licensed professionals use these options to help sessions fit into everyday routines without requiring extra time for commuting.
