About me
Hello! I applaud you for your courage in taking this step to receive the help you desire to addressing your concerns. I am here to support you in that journey to receive help, hope, and healing. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor - MHSP in the state of Tennessee with over 10 years experience working with individuals and families in various settings addressing a variety of issues including low self-esteem, abuse, trauma, codependency, ACOA issues, (adult children of alcoholics), shame, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, career, life stage issues, and parenting issues.
My therapeutic approach combines a compassionate, person-focused approach along with solution focused therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy to help you set goals and pass through your difficulties into the freedom and destiny you desire. I have an emphasis in Marriage and Family therapy, and understand the importance that our families of origin play in some of our current issues. I work from a strengths based perspective, and will provide strategies to help you overcome challenges and obstacles based on your strengths, as well as provide support, and encouragement as you pursue your goals.
I understand the importance of providing a safe space for you to heal, where you can explore new territory without judgement, and to help you find joy and peace as you reach your goals. If you are looking for a counselor that will accept you for who you are, and who will encourage you to face the obstacles that are keeping your relationship from being all you desire it to be, you have come to the right place. I look forward to working with you!

It's been such an impactful year full of growth, change, and development with Rosemary's help. She's a great listener, insightful, full of light and a fervent relationship with God. I can't imagine having navigated the challenges that 2022 brought without Rosemary as an aid.

Rosemary is very kind and compassionate. She listens closely to what you say and has given me real insight into why I do certain things or think certain things. She is very good about giving concrete actionable goals so you can focus on exactly what you need to do. I’ve been able to make real progress in the areas I was concerned with and my family can see that too. I’m very grateful that I was paired with her for therapy and wish I had decided to do this sooner. Thank you, Rosemary!

It was phenomenal to work with Rosemary Maltese. She asks nicely placed thought provoking questions so you can better understand and have clarity on situations you might be facing. She was personable and easy to connect with! I thoroughly enjoy working with her!
