Getting to know Maritza Rosales

Hi there, I'm Maritza! My name is Maritza Rosales, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master's in Social Work from California State University, Dominguez Hills. I work with clients statewide via telehealth, supporting children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and stress, using Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Positive Psychology to help clients feel better and make meaningful improvements in their daily lives. My approach varies based on the needs and goals of each client. I use a person-centered, strengths-based, and mindfulness approach. I also utilize TF-CBT, CBT, and Positive Psychology to help clients increase their self-awareness and learn tools to improve their emotional well-being. I typically work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing trauma-related symptoms, anxiety, stress, depression, and life transitions. I have experience supporting clients who have faced childhood trauma, domestic violence, grief and loss, and relationship challenges. My communication style is calm, empathetic, and non-judgmental. My goal is to create a safe space where clients feel comfortable and truly heard. My journey to mental healthcare began with a strong desire to help my community. After several years of experience, I realized I wanted to support children and families in a deeper way. Becoming a therapist allowed me to work directly with people, providing the guidance and support they need during difficult times. I have always enjoyed helping others-family, friends, and peers-and have been fortunate to have people who encouraged and supported me. Being a therapist allows me to be that supportive, encouraging presence and to offer hope to others.
