Rose Gillis, a compassionate Mental Health Counselor with a MA and LMHC credentials, understands that trust in therapy begins as a risk. For individuals, whether they are teens, adults, or elders, feelings of distrust upon the first encounter are completely natural, reflecting our shared human experience. Rose emphasizes the creation of a genuinely safe space, where clients can express themselves freely, experience acceptance, and feel supported without the weight of abusive behavior. This foundational safety is built upon authenticity, confidentiality, and kindness, factors that Rose diligently honors in her practice. Her approach to therapy encompasses a diverse range of modalities including Trauma Focused, Positive Psychology, and Emotionally Focused techniques, tailored to meet the unique needs of couples, individuals, and families. Rose’s commitment to ethical excellence and sound judgement fosters an environment rich with hope—one grounded in evidence that therapeutic engagement leads to meaningful change. Her ultimate goal is to guide clients toward their own paths of growth and healing, facilitating exploration of what needs to be addressed for lasting progress. In this journey, Rose seeks to empower her clients not just to cope, but to thrive.
