About Rosemary

Rosemary Lough is a clinical social worker with twenty years of experience based in Maine. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, sleep problems, and life changes. Her approach is practical and focused on everyday challenges.

She draws on strengths-based work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change patterns that get in the way. She also uses client-centered listening and mindfulness methods to slow down racing thoughts and build steady habits.

Background and approach

Motivational interviewing is part of how she supports people ready to make changes. Sessions are collaborative and goal focused. Rosemary encourages clients to set clear objectives and she helps break those goals into small, doable steps.

The work often includes learning new coping skills and practicing them between sessions. Her background includes long experience with trauma, serious mental health concerns, and grief related to medical and cognitive issues. That history has shaped a careful, empathetic style that pays attention to each person’s unique situation.

Rosemary aims to be straightforward and warm in session. She balances practical skill-building with supportive listening so people can manage symptoms and move toward the life they want.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose values-based actions. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and when life changes make choices feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try out methods, and adjust the plan based on what works best. That collaborative decision making helps match techniques to each person’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, ongoing support, and a way to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family, and other commitments.
