Hello! My Name is Rosemary Powell. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist. My ideal clients are couples that are seeking pre-marital counseling, a family looking for some communication skills, adjustment to life cycle (blended family, birth, adoption, stress, illness and loss)assistance, women who are having a hard time balancing parenting, career and self. Lastly, any individual who is looking for a holistic mind, body and soul approach to their mental health. If You fit in any of these categories I work collaboratively with all my clients to achieve your goals.
As an MFT, I can work with children, teens, adults and seniors that are facing relational and life adjustment challenges. The best part of my approach is that I don't just look at the presenting problem. I look at my clients in a systematic way. No one exist separately from their mind, body and soul. All are equally critical to feeling whole and fully functional in society. I am a clinical fellow with AAMFT. I incorporate self expression into practice when my clients have a hard time finding the words to express what they are feeling in a safe space. My mission is to create a space where my clients feel comfortable, supported, heard and met where they are when meeting with me. Also, I provide consulting and supervision for students needing licensure hours or would like support transitioning from an associate clinician to a licensed clinician. Having gone through the process of becoming an LMFT, It is important to have support from one who is familiar with the process. Thats ME!!!
