About Rosemary

Rosemary Maltese is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee who brings 11 years of clinical experience to her practice.

Background and approach

She blends a compassionate, client-centered stance with practical, evidence-informed techniques to help people navigate stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career transitions, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Her work emphasizes strengths and collaboration, aiming to support clients as they identify goals and move through life changes toward greater balance.

Her approach integrates solution-focused strategies, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical elements, EMDR when appropriate, and mindfulness practices to address both immediate problems and deeper patterns. She often considers family of origin dynamics and relational systems when relevant, offering perspectives informed by marriage and family considerations.

Rosemary frames therapy as a partnership that combines practical skills, emotional processing, and encouragement so clients can build resilience and pursue meaningful change.

Online Counseling with Client-Focused and Evidence-Based Tools

Online sessions draw on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to combine empathy with practical skill-building. Client-centered work prioritizes the client’s perspective and personal strengths, creating a collaborative environment where goals are shaped by the individual. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching concrete strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress.

Dialectical behavior therapy elements are also used to help with emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness, offering mindfulness-informed skills for coping with intense emotions and improving communication. Together these approaches allow for both emotional processing and actionable change, and the therapist will work with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for scheduling and for different comfort levels with communication. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care while fitting therapy into a busy life, allowing clients to engage in skill practice, reflection, and therapeutic conversation from varied settings.
