Rosa Daneshvar, MS, CRC, LPC-IT

Certified Rehabilitation Counselor

Mental Health Professional

Licensed Professional Counselor – In Training

I hold a master’s degree in chemical engineering from the University of Washington in Seattle and for several years I worked in drug development at one of the largest biopharmaceutical companies in the world, but I wasn’t satisfied. I couldn’t see the direct impact of my work. I craved the intimacy of working with people one-on-one. So, I made the decision to go back to school to become a therapist. While pursuing this passion, I worked as a math instructor at the UW- Madison. 

I am excited to be starting the next phase of my professional life, graduating with my master’s in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling this May; Proving that it’s never too late to follow your dreams. Having just completed my clinical internship at Elite Cognition, I am excited to stay on as a mental health provider. 

As a therapist, I use a client-centered lens, meaning I will follow your lead on what you’d like to explore and what goals you’d like to achieve. Empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity are the pillars of my approach. I believe in a human’s innate potential to heal. Together we will work to facilitate your self-actualization by exploring your ability to be the best version of yourself. We will work through symptoms and blocks you may be struggling with, as we move toward your personal goals.

I use a variety of methods and techniques in my work, to include mindfulness, cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and more. I enjoy working with different populations and age groups, as I expand my experience. I am particularly interested in helping people process and move on from trauma. I am currently working toward certification as an EMDR and Brainspotting provider. 

I am originally from Iran. I am bilingual, speaking English and Farsi (AKA Persian).  Being a therapist is my calling and I can’t wait to work with you. I find myself enjoying this work more every day.
