About Dr. JB Rose

Dr. Rose is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and is the founder of Mindful Path Behavioral Health & Wellness, Inc., (est. 2009).

 

She 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. 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 Experiencing, 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.
