Greetings,

I have 7 years experience as a LAADC (Licensed Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor) in a residential recovery environment, and more than 2 years as an LPCC. I have been conducting one on one and group therapy, both in-person and remote, for the last 8 years and my specialized areas of treatment include:

· Addiction Related Behaviors

· Trauma

· PTSD

· Depression

· General Anxiety

· Performance Anxiety

· Life Transitions

· And Grief & Loss

My goal is to be your partner in finding the change you desire.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Berkeley, California. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, relationship patterns, and the lingering effects of difficult or painful experiences. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, high-functioning, and insightful, yet still find themselves stuck in patterns that feel hard to shift alone.

My background includes training in EMDR, somatic and attachment-focused therapy, parts work, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute. I also bring a mindfulness and body-based perspective to therapy through years of yoga and meditation practice.

My style is warm, collaborative, and depth-oriented while still practical and grounded. I especially enjoy working with complex trauma, highly self-aware clients, neurodivergent clients, and people who want therapy that goes beyond coping skills alone.

I am a trauma therapist with extensive experience helping individuals heal from painful experiences, navigate emotional challenges, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives. Throughout my work in community mental health and private practice, I have had the privilege of supporting clients from diverse ages, cultures, and backgrounds.

I completed my graduate training at New York University (NYU) and bring both clinical expertise and genuine compassion to my work. My goal is to create a safe, warm, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly heard and understood as we work together toward healing, growth, and meaningful change.

I am a dedicated LCSW with 25 years of experience. I obtained my MSW from USC and a BA in psychology at UCLA. I am skillful in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and specializes in women's health, stress management and trauma-informed care. My approaches are rooted in evidence-based outcomes and best clinical practices. I utilize mindfulness /self-awareness techniques to help clients develop coping and problem-solving skills, so they can achieve their goals and positive lasting change.

I'm a clinical psychologist who has spent over 25 years supporting people when life has thrown an unexpected “curveball” that was more than they were ready to handle. From the shock of a life-changing accident or illness, to failing relationships, derailed careers, or early life experiences that still haunt them, I have guided adults of all ages in their efforts to regain balance in their lives.

You may look like you have it together, but inside you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, anxious, or trapped in your own thoughts. You replay conversations, struggle to quiet your mind at night, or carry experiences you rarely talk about. You've learned to keep functioning while bearing the weight of it all. As someone who has been on the other side of the badge and now serves as a licensed clinician, I understand what it means to bring difficult experiences home with you. When accustomed to being strong for everyone else, therapy can be where you finally take care of yourself. Let me help you quiet the spiral and reclaim your life.

As a former law enforcement officer, licensed clinical social worker, and current children’s social worker, I bring both professional training and real-world-experiences to therapy. I understand that asking for help can make it uncomfortable-especially for people who are accustomed to being the one others depend on.

My name is Dr. Rosalyn Warren, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience helping children, adolescents, young adults, adults, and older adults facing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, addiction, and suicidal thoughts. I am a certified informed addiction medicine professional, a certified grief and loss professional, and a trauma-informed professional. I have been an MSW for 30 years, licensed as an LCSW for 20 years, and I am currently pursuing my doctorate in Social Work at USC.

I'm a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (English and Spanish) with 13 years of clinical experience, and I work entirely via telehealth across California. My clients range from children and adolescents to adults and seniors, and often I'm working with whole families at once.

A lot of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, ADHD, trauma, or major life transitions, and many are doing it while also managing the weight of cultural expectations, immigration history, or intergenerational patterns that don't always have easy names.

My sessions are judgment-free, bicultural, and built around what actually helps you move forward.

Always taking care of everyone else before yourself? You deserve support too. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to carry everything alone. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for busy professionals, stay at home parents, caregivers, students, and everything in between who may be feeling emotionally exhausted by the demands of daily life. I work with children, teens, young adults, parents, and families navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, self-esteem, and relationship challenges. Hablo Español!

I have been a Marriage and Family Therapist for the last 13 years working passionately and supportingly with a variety of clients. I have also spent 10 years prior working in different facets of the mental health system such as schools, hospitals, and group homes. Supporting clients to achieve their goals heal and grow is my core goal.
