About Rosette

Rosette Schapira is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 20 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges. She speaks English and Hebrew and practices in California. Her approach is down-to-earth and focused on practical steps a person can use between sessions.

She begins by listening to what a person is dealing with now and what small changes would help. Sessions tend to focus on sorting through strong emotions like anger, grief, or fear and on rebuilding self-esteem.

Background and approach

Rosette uses clear, actionable strategies that people can try at home to reduce worry and lift low mood. When relationship issues or intimacy concerns come up, she helps people talk through patterns that get in the way and try new ways of relating. Parenting topics are approached with concrete tools for managing stress and communication around kids and family life.

Rosette also works with career stress, addictions, and the challenges that come with life transitions. Her style is collaborative and coaching-oriented when useful, helping clients set goals and track progress. Over two decades she has guided many people through grief and adjustment to change.

She aims to make therapy practical and relevant to day-to-day life. Prospective clients can expect a calm, supportive space to try different strategies and build skills that fit their routine. Sessions may include talking, skill practice, and planning small steps to try between meetings.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Rosette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts and habits that feed anxiety and depression, replacing them with more workable ways of thinking. Another approach emphasizes emotion awareness and learning how to name and move through feelings like anger, grief, or shame so they have less control over daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rosette will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they set clear goals and try techniques for a few sessions to see what helps most, then adjust the plan as needed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can help with quick check-ins or brief processing, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options let people schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
