Rose is a mental health therapist with over a decade of experience, whose journey began in Tanzania where she first recognized the critical need for mental health support in communities where such discussions were often stigmatized. Her unique perspective, shaped by her Tanzanian background and American education, allows her to bridge cultural gaps in mental health treatment.
After completing her Master’s in Rehabilitation Counseling at Michigan State University, where she worked extensively with families affected by mental health challenges and developmental disabilities, Rose established her practice in the Greater Boston area. She offers therapy services in both English and Swahili, making mental health care more accessible to diverse communities.
Specializing in anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, cultural transition support, parenting, pre-marital and marriage counseling Rose has successfully helped hundreds of clients navigate complex life challenges. Her expertise extends to parenting/co-parenting coaching, spirituality integration, and addressing the unique mental health needs of people of color. She employs a client-centered approach, combining evidence-based practices with cultural wisdom and Biblical principles when appropriate.
As a committed Christian and pastor’s wife, Rose brings both professional expertise and spiritual understanding to her practice. Her therapeutic approach emphasizes non-judgmental support, unconditional positive regard, and motivational interviewing techniques. She is particularly passionate about breaking down cultural barriers to mental health care and creating safe spaces for families to address their challenges openly and effectively.
Through her work, Rose continues to fulfill her mission of making quality mental health care accessible to diverse communities while honoring both cultural heritage and personal growth journeys.
