I am a clinical social worker practicing in the New England area for over twenty five years. I have worked with individuals primarily with acute mental illness and trauma. In addition, I have a significant amount of experience working with families and individuals who have experienced cognitive impairment, physical disabilities and medical problems. Dealing with issues of grief and loss, often accompanying mental and physical problems, has made me very sensitive to other’s needs.
I have always had a passion for caring and helping others and now bring years of experience to my work. I hope to continue to to work with people, as they face life’s challenges and transitions, coping with the anxiety and depression, that often accompanies change.
My therapeutic model is strengths based, often using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). In addition, I utilize Person-Centered Therapy ((PCT) coupled with mindfulness techniques. Recognizing the unique individual differences, the therapeutic process will be determined collaboratively and what approach is best suited for the individual.
My sincere, empathetic and engaging personality has worked well for me in relationship building and facilitating the process of growth and wellness. I am goal oriented and encourage clients to set their individual objectives and together we work towards achieving them.
I am eager to be part of your life’s journey and together we will achieve fulfillment and joy that you are striving for.

Rosemary has helped me (and continues to help me) in so many ways. She has not only helped me identify the sources of my stress and anxiety but has offered solutions! I wish I met her a long time ago.

Working with therapists in the past and then getting to work with Rosemary is like a night and day experience. Her level of empathetic listening, understanding, and compassion is surreal. She does not beat around the bush but she is also extremely kind. I’m so excited to have stumbled across her and will be working with her as long as she lets me! Definitely recommend her. ◡̈
