About Rose
Rose Perez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 13 years of experience. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, LGBTQ concerns, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. Her opening focus is helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and try practical alternatives.
She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thought patterns that keep problems going. Sessions focus on concrete skills - noticing triggers, testing beliefs, and trying small behavior changes. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation grounded in each person's goals and values.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are used when people need skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Rose emphasizes finding past strengths and using them to address current problems. That means identifying what has worked before and building on those steps.
Her background includes lengthy clinical work in California settings, supporting people with mood disorders, panic, post-traumatic stress, workplace issues, communication problems, and concerns related to chronic pain or illness. She also addresses relationship transitions such as divorce and separation, and personal issues like guilt, shame, impulsivity, isolation, and questions about sexuality and life purpose.
Sessions are structured and practical. Rose helps people set clear goals and reviews progress regularly. The focus is on small, achievable changes that fit into everyday life and can reduce distress over time.
Online sessions with CBT and skills-based approaches
Rose uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT sessions often break problems into manageable parts and focus on homework exercises that test new behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy provides a straightforward backdrop for those conversations, keeping the work aligned with the person's goals and priorities.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques when clients need concrete emotion regulation or distress tolerance skills. DBT skills are practical tools for managing intense feelings and reducing impulsive reactions. Together, these approaches offer structured options rather than a single fixed method, and the therapist will work collaboratively to find what fits best for each person's needs and preferences.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a day - for example, a shorter video check-in or audio session can be scheduled during a break, and avoiding travel frees up time that would otherwise be spent commuting. Talk with the therapist about which session length and setup would work best given work, caregiving, or other daily commitments.
