About Rosemary
Rosemary Rice is a licensed marriage and family therapist who supports people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and family challenges, grief, trauma, and a wide range of mood and behavioral concerns.
Background and approach
She brings a practical focus to issues such as self-esteem, career struggles, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue, and also attends to related areas like communication problems, life purpose, isolation, and post-traumatic stress.
With three years of formal licensure as an LMFT and additional years of clinical experience before licensing, she creates a welcoming space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings without judgment. Her style emphasizes collaboration and empowerment, helping clients take the often-difficult first steps toward change and greater well-being.
Rosemary combines techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy with client-centered and dialectical behavior approaches to tailor care to each person’s goals and needs. She offers services in both English and Spanish and works with clients across California.
Rosemary frames therapy as a process of discovery and growth, meeting people where they are and supporting them as they build more satisfying patterns in relationships, work, and daily life.
How Rosemary’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Rosemary uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for changing behaviors and managing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating difficulties. Client-centered therapy is also part of her practice and emphasizes empathy, active listening, and working at the client’s pace to build trust and self-directed growth. Dialectical behavior therapy skills inform her work when emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities, providing concrete tools for managing strong feelings and improving communication.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. She partners with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods over time so the work feels useful and relevant. Clients can expect shared decision-making about which techniques to try and ongoing conversations about progress and next steps.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels with remote care. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of treatment, practice skills between sessions, and fit therapy into everyday life without frequent travel.
