Who Am I?

Hello! My name is Lishan Rosen and I am a Licensed Social Worker who loves working with children, adolescents, and adults. I recognize that everyone comes from different walks of life and I’m excited to walk alongside you on your healing journey!

I love working with:

  • Children navigating school stressors and friendships
  • Adolescents struggling with depression, anxiety, body image, self-esteem
  • Young adults navigating life transitions and stressors
  • Individuals who have experienced trauma
  • Neurodivergence
  • LGBTQIA+ population

Some of my favorite approaches include:

I use an eclectic approach to therapy which means that I pull from a variety of therapeutic modalities and techniques! Some of those approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), psychodynamic, and strengths-based. I always meet the client where they are at! I use a collaborative approach and use different techniques that will best support the client with their treatment goals. Additionally, I like to use play therapy and art therapy techniques with my younger clients.

HOW I HELP

I know building rapport and trust is a process, so I follow the client’s pace and meet them where they are at. I am here to hold space to celebrate wins, and also to process anything that clients may be struggling with. I am a firm believer in clients actively engaging in the therapeutic process. This can look like the client and myself co-creating their treatment plan. I make sure that clients are happy with their treatment goals and that I am supporting them in any way that they feel is helpful.

Beliefs section

  • I believe that everyone deserves a space where they can be authentically themselves and can feel seen and heard.
  • I believe that there is not one size fits all when it comes to healing and that there will be ups and downs
  • I believe that in addition to doing the hard work, therapy can also come with laughter and possibly be fun!

What it’s like in a session with me

First and foremost, I like to keep the therapeutic space cozy and comfortable; I have fidgets to use and keep the lighting relaxed. At the start of sessions, I like to ask how the client’s week has been, to ease into the therapy space. I believe that all topics are welcome! Nothing is ever TMI in therapy. Sessions can look like learning about different coping skills to processing difficult experiences and emotions to discussing your favorite TV show or book. I also like to incorporate metaphors into sessions.

More about me

Outside of work,  I am typically working on a jigsaw puzzle or reading a good book.  I love spending time with friends and family, as well as getting outside when I can. I have two cats that I love to play with at home. I play the flute and enjoy playing in a community band with my friends!
