About Rosa

Rosa Gomez Duque is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who offers therapy in both English and Spanish. She draws on six years of clinical experience and a background that began with a psychology degree in Colombia and a master’s in marriage and family therapy in 2012. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and the everyday strain of parenting.

She also supports those dealing with trauma, relationship or intimacy concerns, sleep problems, anger, addictions, and attention challenges such as ADHD.

Background and approach

Rosa often addresses cultural issues and the effects of compassion fatigue as part of broader life stress. Her style is straightforward and grounded. Sessions focus on building resilience and practical coping skills.

She encourages clients to notice the lessons in difficult moments and to use those insights to move forward. Rosa uses an integrative, holistic approach. She adapts methods to fit each person’s needs and goals rather than relying on one fixed model.

Acceptance, empathy, and a nonjudgmental attitude guide her work. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort. Rosa aims to help people find their own solutions and tap into their strengths.

Her background in nonprofit settings means she has experience with a range of ages and life situations.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Rosa uses integrative, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor sessions to each person's needs. One common approach she draws on focuses on building coping skills and emotional regulation to manage anxiety, stress, and anger; this involves practical exercises and small behavioral changes that can be practiced between sessions. Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed care and processing of difficult experiences at a pace the client feels comfortable with, helping reduce the intensity of trauma-related reactions and improve daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rosa will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust strategies over time based on progress and feedback. The focus is on finding approaches that fit the client's life and needs rather than imposing one method.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation when visual cues are important. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for ongoing coaching, brief check-ins, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
