Rosemary Eads

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


I am a seasoned professional who specializes in working with highly sensitive people. My varied training including Gestalt therapy, EMDR, Life Coaching and Hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Technique and Spiritual Response Therapy enables me to help you go deep, get to the root of an issue, and create satisfying resolutions.

I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling from Southwestern College in Santa Fe, New Mexico where a transpersonal approach was fostered, that is, taking into account the psychological as well as the spiritual aspects of our clients. I also studied at the Coaches Training Institute, EMDRIA for EMDR training, The Gestalt Institute of Santa Fe, the Hypnotherapy Academy of America in Albuquerque NM, and the Spiritual Response Association. I am also a life-long meditator and spiritual practitioner. In addition to working as a therapist for the last 21 years, I have been a marketing director, a psychic and a life coach.

Many of my clients are healers, therapists, teachers, artists, psychics and spiritual practitioners. They are seeking someone who can understand their rich inner world as well as the challenges of their outer world. They are seeking a therapist who can track intuitively and work with them respectfully to release unwanted limiting beliefs and traumas so that they can truly shine and achieve their goals.

I am currently writing a book called, "The Misfit Mystic" which addresses the issue of struggling to fit into society with psychic and spiritual sensibilities.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Bedford

Searching for therapists in New Bedford starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist is trained for it. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare New Bedford therapists, review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and experience. A therapist who works with your specific concern, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy, may be a stronger fit for what you want to address.

New Bedford is a smaller city, so local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger Massachusetts markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Massachusetts. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect before you book.

Therapy in New Bedford can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you find therapists in New Bedford, MA who match your needs and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details — so you can review bios, compare availability, confirm coverage for your specific plan, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
