Dr. Rose is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and is the founder of Mindful Path Behavioral Health & Wellness, Inc., which was established in 2010.

Dr. Rose specializes in working with adults who are in emotional pain and feel alone in that pain. Mostly, her clients have been deeply impacted by: childhood trauma, relational trauma (childhood and adult), challenging relationships of all kinds, anxiety, depression, self-doubt, not-enoughness, chronic-illness, loss-of-self, perfectionism, deep-seeded shame, fertility journeys; loss and associated grief and pain, disenfranchised grief and grief of all forms, and those navigating through major transitions in life (i.e., pregnancy, parenting, marriage, divorce, retirement, career-change/stress, sandwich generation stress, caregiver-stress and burnout, loss of roles or identity, being childfree by choice, being childless by circumstance, perimenopause/menopause, and other defining isolating events in life). 

Dr. Rose feels very passionate about offering a reparative relational experience through the therapeutic process, where her clients can feel safe to explore all of the layers of their lived experiences and learn effective healing strategies, as well as coping tools, that can help them live in alignment with their values. She believes that through the therapeutic relationship, with a safe and witnessing other, even the most difficult and painful material can be accessed, held and processed, contextualized, and as a result, lightened. She works from a collaborative and holistic framework, validating her clients' experiences and encouraging them to recognize the avoidance patterns that, paradoxically, exacerbate rather than reduce their suffering. Dr. Rose is deeply committed to her work with clients, guiding them towards healing and freeing people up to coexist with what has happened to them while learning to live in the light of who they are now. 

Dr. Rose's style of therapy is deeply relational and trauma-informed/focused. She is guided by theories such as Yoga-Informed Psychotherapy and Philosophy, Internal-Family Systems (IFS), Polyvagal Theory, Somatic Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Gottman Method (Level 1), and other Mindfulness-Informed and Evidence-Based Approaches.

Dr. Rose received her Doctoral Degree in Clinical Psychology in 2007 from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology. In addition to her clinical training and various theoretical training, Dr. Rose has been trained in various forms of yoga, somatic forms of healing, yoga-informed psychotherapy, mindfulness, reiki, and meditation. In her spare time, Dr. Rose is an avid sea-glass collector, amateur photographer of nature (specifically sunrises and sunsets), proud plant mama, adoring dog mama, and spends most of her time outdoors (in all seasons) adventuring with her loyal sidekick, Stassi. Dr. Rose also takes advantage of any chance to dance and seeks opportunities for joy, laugher, and dance as ways to support nervous-system flexibility and care. 

Dr. Rose is licensed Illinois and is credentialed through PsyPact and can see clients virtually in PsyPact participating states. To see if your state qualifies, please see https://psypact.site-ym.com/page/psypactmap

Kareigh (pronounced “car-ee”) is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). She is currently accepting new adult clients who are seeking individual therapy (for couples she has a waitlist). Kareigh is trained as an integrative therapist, and the process of therapy with her can look a little different for every client, depending on their particular goals and concerns. Kareigh’s work is grounded in the framework of Integrative Systemic Therapy, and she draws from different models in her approach to care, including: Narrative Therapy, Transgenerational Family Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS),and the Gottman Method (Level 1). 
 

Kareigh believes that our experiences in our relationships, both past and present, and the larger socio-economic and cultural contexts we inhabit, have an enormous influence on who we are and who we become. Understanding more about these aspects of our identity development can help answer the questions so many of us have about why we interact with others and show up in the world the way that we do.

Kareigh is passionate about working with people who: are interested in
exploring their family histories, interrupting generational patterns, and
understanding the roles they play in their family systems; are longing for
connection and more depth in their relationships; are experiencing challenges in relationships across contexts of their lives (with family members, romantic partners, friends, colleagues, etc.); are grieving the future they imagined for themselves after a breakup; are wanting to increase self-esteem and strengthen their sense of self-trust; are asking big questions and perhaps feeling some existential angst; know they use humor as a coping mechanism; and/or can identify as “recovering people-pleasers.”

Kareigh is deeply invested in creating and maintaining a compassionate and collaborative environment for her clients. She strives to do this by both modeling and fostering moments of humility, genuine curiosity, and intentional vulnerability. She wishes to acknowledge, wholeheartedly, that it is the utmost privilege to witness, make space for, and be with her clients as they endure, engage in, are consumed by, and attempt to make meaning out of each and every part of their human experience.

Kareigh earned her Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from
The Family Institute at Northwestern University.

Stassi is Mindful Path's therapy support dog. 

She can currently be seen in sessions with Dr. Rose both virtually and in person. 

In her spare time, Stassi enjoys walking the beaches of Lake Michigan in all seasons, long road trips, adventuring with her Mama, playing with her stuffies, and snuggling. 

Stassi loves providing cuteness and comfort to the clients she is honored to sit with. She is a really great listener, too :)
