About Rosemary
Rosemary Lough is an LCSW and LICSW with 20 years of practice experience in Maine. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, depression, relationship concerns, self-esteem, career issues, bipolar disorder, and major life changes.
She uses a strengths-based, practical approach. Sessions focus on clear goals and short-term steps. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and then try different ways of responding.
Rosemary also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered methods. Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing appear in her work when they fit a person’s goals. She discusses options with each person and chooses approaches together.
In sessions she emphasizes concrete skills and decisions. That can mean practicing new ways of thinking, setting small behavioral experiments, or building routines for better sleep. She encourages people to set measurable objectives and reviews progress regularly.
Her background includes long experience with trauma, acute mental health concerns, and grief linked to medical or cognitive issues. She has worked with people affected by disability and medical problems and brings that experience into practical problem solving.
People who prefer a straightforward, goal-oriented style can expect sessions that focus on what to try next and how to track change. Before scheduling, confirm current session options and formats.
How Rosemary uses CBT, ACT and client-centered work online
Rosemary commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In practice this means tracking patterns, trying short behavioral experiments, and building routines that improve sleep and mood.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and focus on actions that reflect their values. Client-centered methods mean sessions pay attention to what matters most to the person and let them guide the goals and pace.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. She will review options, try methods that match your goals, and adjust based on what helps. The process is about testing practical steps and tracking progress together.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists often use video or phone for different needs, so ask which formats are available when you schedule.
