Roser Camats Falip
Welcome to my profile! My name is Roser, and I work as a Psychotherapist and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 17 years of experience. I received my Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology (Somatics) from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco. Prior to my training in the United States, I completed a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology in Spain. As a bicultural and bilingual Spanish-speaking therapist, I value how our cultural backgrounds, identities, relationships, and life experiences shape the way we understand ourselves and navigate the world. Throughout my career, I have worked in mental health clinics, schools, hospitals, and residential treatment settings with children, families, couples, and adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. Today, I work with adults who may feel stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or disconnected from themselves, as well as those navigating life transitions, relationship difficulties, painful experiences, or trauma. My work goes beyond addressing symptoms alone. I support clients in exploring themselves more deeply, understanding the roots of their struggles, and developing greater self-awareness so that meaningful change can emerge. At times, navigating life’s challenges alone can feel difficult. Therapy offers a space to slow down, listen more deeply to yourself, and discover new possibilities. Together, we can find a way forward that honors who you are and who you are becoming.
I help my clients explore the deeper roots of their struggles, cultivate self-awareness and self-compassion, and reconnect with their inner resources to foster meaningful healing and personal growth.
“Growth occurs when individuals confront problems, struggle to master them and through that struggle develop new aspects of their skills, capacities and views about life.” — Carl Rogers
First session
In our first session together, we will begin with brief introductions and then explore the specific challenges that are bringing you to therapy at this time. This will help me better understand your needs, concerns, and personal goals so that together we can begin developing a therapeutic plan tailored to you. I will also review important information about privacy, confidentiality, and cancellation policies. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions about the therapeutic process and, if you feel comfortable, share relevant experiences from previous therapy. Most importantly, our first session is an opportunity for us to begin getting to know one another and creating a space where you can feel heard, understood, validated, and supported. By the end of the session, my hope is that you will have a clearer sense of what you would like to work toward in therapy and how we can begin moving forward together.
Strengths
One of my greatest strengths is my ability to create a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where clients can feel safe, seen, heard, and accepted as they explore their experiences, conflicts, childhood wounds, and vulnerabilities. I bring empathy, curiosity, intuition, and a deep understanding of human suffering, shaped by both my professional and life experiences. My approach goes beyond addressing symptoms alone. Together, we can explore underlying patterns and the deeper roots of your struggles while identifying healthier ways of relating to yourself, others, and the challenges you face. I draw from different therapeutic approaches, psychoeducation, and, when desired, spiritual perspectives, always adapting our work to your individual needs and pace. I especially hope to help clients reconnect with their innate and creative resources and develop greater self-knowledge, self-acceptance, and self-compassion. I value the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative process that honors your autonomy and supports self-care. At the heart of my work is a genuine desire to be of service to others and to support each person’s unique process of healing and growth. My intention is to help you strengthen your own inner resources, develop healthier coping skills, and move toward a more conscious, fulfilling, and authentic way of living.
Ideal clients
I am passionate about helping adults connect with their potential for growth and create more fulfilling lives. I enjoy working with clients who are curious about themselves and motivated to grow, even when they may not yet know exactly how to move forward. My clients may feel stuck, anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. They may be navigating life transitions, career challenges, relationship difficulties, family dynamics, past wounds, or a desire for greater meaning and fulfillment. I especially enjoy working with clients who want to look beyond immediate symptoms and develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their patterns, relationships, and life experiences. You do not need to arrive in therapy knowing exactly what you want to change; curiosity and a willingness to explore can be a meaningful place to begin. At this time, I work with individual adults rather than children, couples, or families. However, my extensive previous experience working with children, couples, and families informs my understanding of the relational and family dynamics that may be affecting your life today.
Treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients develop a more flexible and compassionate relationship with difficult thoughts, emotions, and life experiences. Rather than struggling against what we cannot always control, ACT uses mindfulness and acceptance-based strategies to help us make space for uncomfortable experiences while remaining connected to the present moment. Together, we can explore what truly matters to you, clarify your personal values, and identify meaningful actions that support the life you want to create. ACT can help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck, respond to challenges with greater awareness and flexibility, and make choices that are more aligned with your values and goals. I integrate ACT principles into therapy as appropriate to support greater psychological flexibility, self-awareness, and meaningful change.
Compassion-Focused
I integrate Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) into my practice to support clients who struggle with self-criticism, shame, feelings of inadequacy, or difficulty treating themselves with the same kindness they may naturally offer to others. Together, we explore how these patterns may have developed through earlier experiences, relationships, or difficult life circumstances. Through compassionate practices, I help clients become more aware of their inner dialogue, soften harsh self-judgment, and develop a more supportive and accepting relationship with themselves. I use CFT principles to strengthen self-compassion, emotional resilience, and a greater sense of safety within oneself. These practices can be particularly helpful when working with concerns such as anxiety, depression, shame, low self-esteem, body image, and difficulties with self-acceptance. Over time, cultivating compassion can also support healthier relationships and a more balanced way of responding to emotional distress and life’s challenges.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
I integrate culturally responsive therapy by recognizing and respecting how each client’s cultural background and identity can influence their beliefs, values, relationships, and life experiences. I consider factors such as race, ethnicity, culture, religion or spirituality, gender, sexual orientation, family traditions, and other meaningful aspects of identity. My goal is to create a therapeutic space where clients feel understood, respected, accepted, and comfortable bringing their whole selves into the therapeutic process.
Mind-body approach
When appropriate, I integrate a mind-body approach to help clients become more aware of the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and physical experiences. Drawing from my graduate training in Somatics, we may pay attention to body sensations and signals that emerge during therapy as another source of self-awareness and understanding. I may also introduce simple mind-body practices that clients can use outside of sessions to support mindfulness, relaxation, and the integration of our therapeutic work.
Transpersonal
When appropriate and aligned with a client’s interests, I integrate Transpersonal, Spiritual, and Jungian perspectives into therapy, exploring the deeper dimensions of the psyche and the unconscious. We may work with dreams, synchronicities, archetypes, and other meaningful experiences as pathways toward greater self-understanding and personal growth. Drawing from depth and Eastern psychology, as well as contemplative and mystical traditions, I support clients in exploring the relationship between the conscious and unconscious mind, the process of individuation, and the search for meaning and greater wholeness. “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” – C. G. Jung
