Martha Rosado is a caring, non-judgmental counselor with over 10 years of experience in techniques proven to reduce stress & anxiety.
I became a counselor because I deeply believe in our ability to change and grow. We all have strengths that can help us overcome life’s challenges. Sometimes we just need help accessing our calm, courageous self. I truly enjoy being a consultant and coach on that path.
I choose to specialize in treating anxiety, worry and panic after getting training in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction and seeing those techniques melt away stress and open you up to truly experiencing life. It’s a new way of being present in the moment and kind to yourself & others.
In 2011, I opened Anxiety Specialists Counseling Center serving clients in the Madison and Jackson, MS area and across central Mississippi.
