Individual Therapy For Adolescents And Adults

Therapy That Meets You Where You Are

Whether you are a teen facing mounting pressure or an adult navigating life’s many complexities, individual therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and grow. Michael Rosner works with both adolescents and adults using a compassionate, integrative approach tailored to each client’s unique needs.

"People often come to therapy feeling lost or stuck. My job isn’t to steer them—it’s to walk beside them as they find their own way."

Michael Rosner, LMFT

"Adolescents need to feel heard before they can be helped. I work hard to earn their trust and speak their language without talking down."

Michael Rosner, LMFT

For Adolescents

The teenage years can be overwhelming. With academic demands, social pressure, and identity exploration all colliding at once, it’s no surprise that teens may struggle to stay grounded. Michael creates a safe, non-judgmental space where teens can explore their thoughts and emotions and develop skills for navigating life more effectively.

Common areas of focus include:

Anxiety and depression
School refusal and academic challenges
Bullying and peer conflict
ADHD and the challenges of neurodivergence
Identity, self-worth, and emotional regulation
Substance use, self-harm and other behavioral challenges

For Adults

Adult life brings its own blend of pressure, purpose, and pain. Whether you are feeling stuck in a career, grieving a loss, navigating a major life transition, or simply feeling like something isn’t quite right, therapy offers a space for reflection, insight, and change.

Common areas of focus include:

Anxiety and chronic stress
Depression and mood fluctuations
PTSD and complex trauma
Grief and loss
Life transitions and identity questions
Addictions (substance or behavioral)
Burnout and existential concerns

Michael’s work with adults blends evidence-based modalities with deep emotional presence. He doesn’t push quick fixes, but helps clients uncover the roots of their struggles and move toward deeper, more lasting change.

"Therapy isn’t about being told what to do. It’s about co-creating a safe space in which you have an opportunity to listen to yourself."

Michael Rosner, LMFT

"Some clients want concrete skills and strategies. Others want to explore their past or unpack deeper patterns. My job is to meet you with the tools that are right for you."

Michael Rosner, LMFT
