She has a simple philosophy that believes each of us has the power to change based on listening to our needs and learning to make the right choices to fulfill those needs. Rose has a bachelor's degree in communication studies from the University of San Diego and a master's degree in clinical counseling from Roosevelt University Chicago where she also serves as an adjunct professor for the clinical counseling program.

Rose loves to get creative with her clients in helping them focus on their strengths and empowering them with realistic tools they can use today to live happier lives. She utilizes less conventional treatment modalities such as reality therapy, sand tray therapy, art, music, and photography. However, she believes that laughter is healing as well, so she will make you laugh!
