- LMFT
Hello, my name is Rosie Pescador, I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, licensed in the state of California. I have been a therapist for more than 12 years and have worked with children, adolescents, and adults with different backgrounds and orientations.
I use a multi-pronged approach that will incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dilectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), and a strength based approach. I have extensive experience working with crisis intervention, trauma, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, victims of domestic violence, mood dysregulation, and parenting skills. My goal in therapy is to provide every individual with the skills to assist them in managing their life and possible stressors that may be impacting them at the moment. I enjoy using psychoeducation, mindfulness, positive coping skills, affirmations, empowerment, and or tools that can be implemented in their life. I strive to provide every individual with an environment that is non-judgment, empathetic, empowering, and safe. I hope to assist you in reaching your goals and living a life that is worth living.
I look forward to working with each individual and helping them navigate their journey.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Rosie is very helpful and understanding. She cares when she talks, and she makes you feel heard and validated. Rosie is very good
Rosie is such a great therapist. She not only listens but also gives great advice and insight when needed. She has been an absolute joy to work with. Not only is she completely on point but I love her welcoming and practical approach to therapy. I definitely recommend her as a therapist!
I love Rosie! I feel she understands what I’m feeling and knows how to make my situation more tolerable and offers great guidance to get through my dilemmas with greater ease than I’m able to handle on my own.
She understands and helps me through difficult points and decisions in my life.
It's nice to have a therapist who is knowledgeable about the issues I'm struggling with and to have someone willing to help with a challenging disease
Super awesome!!! Tends to your needs actively Listens! Rosie is super supportive and always gives informative educated answers
Rosie is awesome!! I have tried various counselors from Better Help and was not impressed with some of them. Rosie is always engaged, she listens, gives great feedback, and communicates on a regular basis. I feel very comfortable sharing my life issues with Rosie!!
Rosie has been there for me weekly! I am so happy to have found a safe space to navigate these uncertain times.
I have tried many counselors and I am very happy with Rosie Pescador as she is attentive and responds to me in a prompt manner. In addition, she is respectful to me and makes me feel comfortable during the video sessions.
She is very professional and clearly cares about patients.
Rosie was very helpful , thanks a lot!
I am so grateful for Rosie. It has been a very challenging year, and with her support and knowledge, I’ve managed to process and work out ways to get to a better place.
Dr. Pescador is a good listener and she understands my concerns. She is ready to offer help and listen to me each time I need her. I really enjoy talking with her and feel better after every of our conversations.
Rosie has done an excellent job in responding and engaging with me. She is very prompt with her responses and explains things very thoroughly.
Feel she is helpful and understands what I need help in. Doesn’t judge and I have learned a lot. Wouldn’t mind some more work sheets who knows might be helpful. Overall recommend her.
I love Rosie. Don’t know what I would do without her.
It's only been a few sessions but she's modern, clearly educated and professional and super approachable!
Rosie has been very good in hearing what I am concerned about and validating my feelings. It helps me not feel so alone. It's nice to talk to someone that is outside my friend circle as I don't want to bore my friends or appear weak in front of my friends.
