Rose Markotic, LMFT — TEAM-CBT therapist

Licensed in: California, Connecticut, Maine, Rhode Island, and Vermont

Telehealth across all five states


Most of my clients arrive having already tried hard. They're thoughtful, capable, often outwardly successful — and stuck on something the strategies that got them this far can't fix. What I love about TEAM-CBT is that it gave me a way to do therapy that respects how hard people are already trying. We don't sit with stuckness for years.

We measure how you're feeling at every session, look honestly at what's keeping change from happening, and use specific tools — not vague encouragement — to move things. I trained in TEAM-CBT through Dr. David Burns' Stanford group at the Feeling Good Institute, where I'm now Level 3 certified. The methodology fits how I work: structured, transparent, and built around real change you can feel by session three or four — not a relationship you maintain forever.

My counseling style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative. I provide a safe space to explore what's going on and generate solutions you can actually use between sessions. I'm currently accepting new clients across California, Connecticut, Maine, Rhode Island, and Vermont.

In their words

I'd spent my whole life carefully camouflaging an anxiety disorder, but it had slowly, steadily gotten the best of me. In the weeks that followed, I found Rose a wonderful therapist, and I let her push me to push myself in ways that felt crazy and impossible. I slowly unlearned everything that I thought I knew about who I was, and how I fit into the world.
