About Rosaura

Rosaura Linsalato is a licensed social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and depression. She aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where clients can talk through what feels most urgent. Rosaura acknowledges that seeking help takes courage and offers steady support through that first step.

With 25 years of practice in New York, Rosaura adapts conversations and plans to each person’s situation.

Background and approach

She uses clear, practical methods to address problems rather than relying on jargon. Sessions focus on small, doable changes and on understanding patterns that keep difficulties going. Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person’s experience and priorities, and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

These approaches are used together to address symptoms and day-to-day challenges. Rosaura also has experience with hoarding, hospice and end-of-life counseling, infidelity, jealousy, and multicultural concerns, and she speaks both English and Spanish. She aims to respond to cultural context and personal values when shaping the plan.

Clients can meet by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and schedules sessions according to therapist availability.

How therapy approaches work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to each person and following their lead. The therapist offers warmth and understanding and helps people explore what matters most to them, which can be useful for relationship or parenting concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and the actions that follow. It includes practicing new ways of thinking and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or stress symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Rosaura will talk with clients about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first, then adjust the plan as needed. That collaborative process helps match practical steps to real-life needs.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. These formats allow regular check-ins, skill practice between meetings, and access when in-person visits are difficult. The goal is to make steady progress in a way that fits each person’s life and routines.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
