Yaritza Rosario, MSW, LSW

Yari is a licensed social worker who earned her Bachelor’s and Master’s in Social Work at Northeastern Illinois University. She has worked with children, teens, adults, and their families in various environments including mental health clinics and preschools to high schools.

She has worked with individuals and groups who experienced difficulty with emotional regulation, school-related concerns, anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, trauma, and relationship conflict. She strives to provide a successful therapeutic journey through a strength-based approach that implements Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

Seeking therapy is a big step and takes courage. Yari is devoted to building a solid rapport with her clients by providing a space where they can feel heard, challenged, and empowered. She strongly believes in consistent communication with parents and families to increase the momentum begun in the treatment room to continue progress in their everyday world.

When Yari is not working, she enjoys trying new foods, traveling, taking road trips, engaging in outdoor activities, and spending time with her family and dog.
