About Rosa

Rosa Ogas is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 17 years of experience. She speaks English and Spanish and brings a practical, strengths-based style to sessions. Rosa focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and depression through clear, usable tools.

She uses client-centered conversation to learn what matters to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her approach when patterns of thought and behavior need shifting. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness techniques are included when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities.

Rosa has worked across diverse social work settings and with multicultural communities. She understands acculturation, family systems, and the specific strains that affect parents and caregivers. Her background includes helping people navigate grief, addiction, trauma, and long-term health challenges.

Sessions emphasize building skills and practical coping strategies. Rosa guides people through problem solving, behavior changes, and calming practices they can use between visits. She aims for short-term tools as well as long-term growth.

Rosa supports people dealing with relationship strain, self-esteem struggles, career stress, and life transitions. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, foster and adoption concerns, caregiver stress, and end-of-life counseling. Her bilingual ability allows her to work with English- and Spanish-speaking clients.

People who choose Rosa can expect a collaborative process that balances real-world steps with emotional work. To start, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire to schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

How Rosa’s approaches translate to online therapy

Rosa commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify goals and change unhelpful patterns. Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities so sessions follow what matters most. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete steps to test and change those patterns.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy for strong emotions and mindfulness techniques to build calm and awareness. DBT tools teach grounding, distress tolerance, and skills for managing intense feelings. Mindfulness practices help people notice what’s happening in the moment and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Rosa will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean starting with short skill-building sessions and adding deeper emotional work later.
