A Brief Introduction to Rosie Pettway, LCSW My social work career began long before I actually earned the degree. It began during my transition from corporate paralegal to elementary substitute teacher in the NYC Public School System. Teaching had placed me in a position to witness firsthand the deep emotional needs of children, which were being neglected and unmet by a system that promised nurturance, support and protection. I noticed the absence of much needed school based social workers. There was only one assigned to that particular school and she was overburdened with duties related to IEP’s for those children identified as having special educational needs. Coupled with (1) my desire to bridge the gap between strengthening mental health resources to children/families/teachers and (2) the physical and emotional trauma related to 911, I knew my path would lead me to becoming a clinical social worker. A total revelation to me! With my heart leading, I applied for social work school the next year and was accepted for the term beginning August 2002. In much the same way I felt called to the field of social work, I also felt called to working with the aging. As I sat next to the chairs of patients receiving their dialysis treatments, I heard stories similar to the ones I’d heard in my work with children – histories of unacknowledged, unresolved trauma they’d been carrying/dragging across the lifespan: generalized anxiety and fear, immigration status concerns, systemic racism, sexual orientation, physical violence, teenage pregnancies, forced marriages, incest/rape/sexual abuse, partner violence, common feelings of unworthiness – unwanted and unloved, and stigmas related to learning disorders and mental health diagnoses. The main difference between the two populations is that the aging adults had carried their burdens and distress over a much longer period. Over lifetimes, and now many are finding themselves existing in a society where their needs are undervalued, thus unprotected. It is my belief that within each of us resides an inner child, still longing for that never received attention (to be seen, to be heard), and still acting out to his/her own self-detriment, often manifesting chronic pain, illness and disease. Armed with this knowledge and now an older person myself, this presents an opportunity for me to participate and assist in the totality of healing for this population – mentally, emotionally and physically, including the child within, bringing unity, integration, stability and peace with Self-Love as the overarching goal. I began my social work career working directly with the youth; and in working with the adult aging population, I continue to touch the youth. For me, this is the best of both worlds. In this, I am fully grateful and satisfied.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in the State of New York and hold a Masters Degree in Social Work from Stony Brook University. In addition to general counseling, I have worked in substance abuse and mental health counseling for six years. As a therapist, I prioritize creating a warm and welcoming environment for clients to feel comfortable in the therapeutic process, whatever that looks like for them. I don’t shy away from working outside the box and find creativity to be an asset in meeting the clients where they’re at. I am dedicated in helping my clients challenge the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are keeping them from living the life they want to live, while also accepting that which is out of their control. I utilize an eclectic array of therapeutic approaches, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Holistic Therapy. I believe that some of the most successful work in therapy is done when we’re able to pull on tools and techniques from various approaches to create a truly individualized treatment plan. I aim to create a safe space for clients to talk about hard things, so they always know they have somewhere to bring the heaviness that they might carry. I believe that there is nothing more profound than making the decision to show up and put in the work, but I also believe that none of us can do it alone. I hope to be a part of the village that it takes.
