Hi there, my name is Rosa King. I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and I primarily work with adults who needs assistance with their anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, career problems, etc. My approach to therapy is really hands-on. I use psychoeducation in treatment so clients can understand and apply coping skills outside of therapy.
My approach
I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients who struggle with irrational thoughts, behavioral issues, anxiety, depression, etc. Dialectic behavioral therapy to help clients emotionally regulate, mindfulness, distress tolerance, etc. Solution focused to help client solve issues and identify triggers.
My focus
My clientele typically consists of 18+ adults who are diagnosed with anxiety, depression, adjustment disorder, bipolar disorder, ADHD, relationship issues, emotional childhood trauma, etc.
My communication style
I am flexible with my approach to therapy (direct or indirect). Working with me will feel like you're talking to a friend. I like my clients to feel comfortable.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have a background in art. I originally received my bachelor's in interior design, but when the recession hit in 2008, I was laid off, and a co-worker introduced me to a non for profit working with teens. I fell in love with helping people, but in a mental way. I also have family members who struggle with mental illness. I wanted to be able to give back and help clients cope.
My goals for you
I help clients create S.M.A.R.T. goals. Goal setting involves smaller goals from larger goals.
My first session with you
The first session will be rapport building, goal setting, and understanding which areas need to be worked on.
