About Rosemarie

Rosemarie Manzolillo is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 30 years of experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting challenges, depression, anger, and ADHD. She listens first and lets each person describe what matters most to them before setting goals together.

Her style centers on respecting the client’s expertise about their own life. She uses clear, practical steps to build coping skills and to ease day-to-day pressures.

Background and approach

Sessions are straightforward and focused on what the client needs right now. Rosemarie draws on client-centered therapy to follow each person’s pace and priorities. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set small, achievable goals and track progress.

These approaches are aimed at making real changes that fit into everyday life. Her work includes many family and parenting related concerns such as blended family issues, adoption and foster care matters, communication problems, and divorce or separation. She also addresses relationship difficulties like infidelity, jealousy, and general family problems.

Over three decades she has supported people through midlife transitions, career stress, financial worries, panic and social anxiety, and end-of-life and hospice concerns. Rosemarie emphasizes practical skill-building so clients leave sessions with clear next steps. She holds the Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, FL LMHC MH1833, and conducts sessions in English.

For parents and others juggling busy lives, her approach aims to be direct, compassionate, and usable between sessions.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Client-centered therapy is about following the client’s lead and treating the person as the expert on their life. The therapist focuses on listening, reflecting what she hears, and helping clients find their own solutions to problems like grief, anxiety, or parenting stress.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals. It helps people identify what is already working, set short-term targets, and build on successes to address issues such as coping with life changes, panic, or relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. Adjustments are made along the way so the plan stays useful and relevant.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend from home, manage childcare, or balance work and family responsibilities while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.

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.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
