Rosa is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who received her Master's in Social Work from UC Berkeley. Prior to joining Looking Glass Counseling, she worked across diverse settings including community mental health, hospitals, primary care and clinical research, supporting perinatal populations, families and adults of all ages, ranging from students to aging adults.

  
Rosa creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their inner worlds, cultivate self-compassion and connect with what brings meaning and purpose to their lives. She approaches therapy as a collaborative partnership grounded in curiosity, empathy and deep respect for each client's lived experience. Her approach is relational and trauma-informed, integrating mindfulness, self-compassion and somatic practices alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and solution-focused interventions. Rosa is committed to offering therapy that is culturally responsive, anti-oppressive and affirming of all identities.

Rosa has experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, perinatal mental health, life transitions, identity development and grief and loss. She is particularly passionate about working with perinatal clients, college-age young adults and individuals from immigrant backgrounds.
