About me

Hello and welcome! I'm Rosa Sutton, an EdD, MS, LPCMH who wants to help you help yourself. Are you navigating life changes that feel overwhelming? Do old wounds make it hard to move forward? Maybe “adulting” feels heavier than you expected — leaving you anxious, on edge, or emotionally drained. Or perhaps you’re simply tired of being so hard on yourself. Or even simply just tired of being tired. I support emerging adults, young adults, and young-at-heart adults in managing everyday anxiety, healing from trauma, and creating momentum when life feels stuck. Together, we’ll explore what’s working, what isn’t, and how you can begin moving toward the life you want with clarity and confidence. My approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow at your own pace. Whether you’re recovering from trauma, navigating anxiety or depression, dealing with burnout, adjusting to adulthood, exploring relationships, or rediscovering yourself, you don’t have to do it alone. Adulting is hard. Finding a therapist shouldn’t be. Isn’t it time to be kinder to yourself?

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is all about getting to know you. We’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you’ve been carrying, and what you’re hoping to change or improve. I’ll ask questions to better understand your history, your strengths, and your goals, and you’ll have plenty of space to share what feels important. Together, we’ll explore what you want out of therapy and discuss how we can work as a team to help you move forward.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

I specialize in Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. EMDR is a psychotherapy approach designed for alleviating the distress associated with traumatic memories. It helps clients process these memories and develop more adaptive coping mechanisms. CBT is a form of talk therapy that helps clients understand the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It aims to help you identify and change negative thought patterns that are causing emotional distress or unhealthy behavior. SFBT is a goal-oriented therapy that focuses on solutions rather than problems. It emphasizes the client's strengths and resources to create a positive change.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I bring a deep sense of empathy and compassion to my practice. My approach is non-judgmental and supportive, ensuring you feel heard, understood, and valued in our therapeutic relationship. I have a profound understanding of the unique challenges faced by emerging young adults, including identity exploration, academic and career pressures, relationship issues, and the quest for autonomy and purpose and how trauma can impair growth. I am committed to utilizing evidence-based therapeutic methods, ensuring that the strategies and interventions used have been proven effective in treating various mental health conditions. I adopt a holistic approach, considering all aspects of your life, including emotional, mental, social, and physical well-being.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Prospective clients include individuals ages 18–45 who are healing from trauma and working through the challenges of early and mid-adulthood.

I love her she's a very good listener. I wish she did couples counseling though she'd be perfect for it!
