Rosemary Holderman, LCSW

Rosemary Holderman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and family concerns. She works with adults and adolescents, and she supports parents facing the strain of raising children. Her style centers on listening closely and building an honest working relationship so clients can move toward their goals.

She brings more than 40 years of experience in community and clinical settings. That includes individual counseling, group work, in-home services, juvenile corrections, and work with the state Department of Children and Families. She has worked with survivors of domestic violence and people coping with grief, loss, and major life transitions.

In sessions she focuses on practical tools and steady support. She uses client-centered methods that let the person lead while she guides. Techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness are offered to help manage thoughts, feelings, and behavior.

Rosemary also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy practices when those approaches fit a person’s needs. This means helping people notice what matters, accept tough feelings, and build skills for handling intense emotions.

People who choose her can expect calm, respectful listening and clear focus on small steps forward. She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients use the site Start Therapy flow to match and schedule according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions that match those values. It can be useful for coping with trauma, anxiety, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful goals rather than only on eliminating symptoms.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing new responses.

Mindfulness-based elements and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills can help people notice emotions without being overwhelmed and build stronger emotion regulation and distress-tolerance habits.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust techniques over time as progress is made.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and making it easier to keep regular appointments. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current online options before booking. Many people find virtual work allows consistent check-ins, easier follow-up between sessions, and ways to practice skills in everyday settings.
