Rosa Guerrero-Alvarenga

My communication style

My communication style is calm, clear, and personable. I want clients to feel like an equal partner in therapy. I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment and without making assumptions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I decided to become a therapist because I wanted to help people become their better self. Through internships and volunteering, I witnessed the positive impact that working together with a therapist can have on a person's life.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is about collaborating with clients to identify clear and attainable goals. I believe that individuals are experts in their own lives and are equal partners in the therapy process. We will work together to identify and track progress on goals.

Our first session

What you can expect for our first session is for us to spend the majority of the time talking about how you have been feeling recently and asking questions to better understand some of why you are feeling that way. The first session is about building a good working relationship and identifying what we would like to attain through therapy.
