About

About Rosemary

Rosemary Rice is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, addictions, and parenting concerns. She speaks English and Spanish and offers conversations that aim to make emotional strain feel more manageable. Her tone is calm and direct, focused on small steps that add up to real change.

She centers sessions on the person's experience and priorities. That means listening first, then helping clients set goals they can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Rosemary uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to challenge unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also draws on client-centered principles to keep the work grounded in each person’s values. For people who need emotion regulation skills, she brings techniques from dialectical behavior therapy to teach coping strategies for intense feelings and urges.

Those skills are useful for managing anger, improving sleep, reducing substance use, and navigating mood swings. Rosemary adapts methods to what fits each person rather than following a fixed script. Her approach is collaborative and solution-minded.

Sessions typically focus on what’s most urgent, like improving communication at work, handling grief, or addressing attention and focus difficulties related to ADHD. Conversations include goal-setting, skill practice, and reflection on progress. Rosemary has three years of licensed experience in California as an LMFT.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make scheduling easier for busy lives. To begin, a short match questionnaire connects people with a schedule that fits both parties.

How Rosemary’s Approaches Work Online

Rosemary uses client-centered work to make sessions responsive to each person's needs. That means the conversation begins with careful listening and honoring what matters most to the client. Client-centered methods help people clarify values and decide which changes feel right for them.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to break down problems into thoughts, behaviors, and moods. CBT offers practical exercises and experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and habit changes.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Rosemary will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. If something isn’t helping, she adjusts the plan together with the client rather than sticking to a fixed course.

Online therapy makes these approaches more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill demonstrations and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can fit a short check-in or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, homework check-ins, or when someone needs support between full sessions. These options help people balance therapy with busy schedules and different daily demands.
