About Mitchell
Mitchell Rouzie is a licensed clinical social worker with 35 years of experience in mental health care. He practices in New Jersey and has helped adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship concerns. His work often involves people coping with grief, burnout, or major life changes.
He uses straightforward, interactive sessions that aim to be respectful and nonjudgmental. Conversation and practical skills happen in session - clients talk about what they are facing and try tools that can make day-to-day life easier.
How Mitchell works
Mitchell focuses on building understanding and safety in the therapeutic relationship so deeper work can follow. Mitchell draws from several clinical approaches to fit each person's needs. He often blends attachment-focused ideas with cognitive behavioral tools and emotionally-focused work to address intimacy, self-esteem, and trauma-related symptoms.
Mindfulness and psychodynamic perspectives are used when they seem helpful to understand patterns and reactions. He has particular experience supporting people affected by abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, and combat- or disaster-related trauma. He also works with concerns such as bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, dissociation, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.
Sessions can include skill-building for stress and anxiety, talking through relationship and intimacy issues, and processing grief or loss. Mitchell aims to meet each person where they are and tailor the pace and focus to individual goals and comfort.

Online support options
How Mitchell’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how early relationships shape feelings and expectations. Online sessions use talk and reflective exercises to improve connection patterns and address intimacy-related struggles or attachment issues.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors. In remote sessions clients often practice brief exercises between meetings and use session time to review what worked and adjust techniques for anxiety, depression, or mood disorder management.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mitchell collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. He adapts plans as needs change and checks in regularly to make sure work feels useful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer talk sessions and exercises, phone calls can fit into a work break or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing skill practice between meetings. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care while matching the format to daily life.
