Meet the Team Monday!

Meet Rose Johnson, LPCC! Rose is part of our School-Based Mental Health Team, working in the Early Childhood program in the White Bear Lake District.

Rose believes that early childhood mental healthcare is vital to lifelong wellness. She is passionate about supporting children and their caregivers in forming deep, secure relationships by seeking to understand the unique attachment needs of each person. She understands that many children go through stress starting early in life and while society has become increasingly aware of the profound impact of stress and trauma on the body, she is equally certain of the intelligence of the body and its ability to overcome trauma when offered a non-shaming space and a loving witness.

In her office, children find a warm, heart-forward, deeply unassuming, and creative environment to process the most difficult parts of their story and uncover their own unique path to healing. This healing process deepens a child’s capacity for healthier relationships and increases their success in the classroom, home, and community.

Rose received nearly five years of professional training in the Developmental Transformations Therapy Model. This approach employs embodied art making, play, drama, movement, and conversation to explore the unconscious aspects of a child’s inner world, facilitate healing, and bolster resilience despite the unpredictability of life.

She is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Minnesota. She holds a Masters Degree in Counseling and Psychological Services from St Mary’s University of Minnesota as well a Masters Degree in Fine Art. Rose enjoys working with children ages 0-18. In her free time, Rose enjoys hiking, mountain biking, gardening, and spending time with her family.

For linkage to Rose's services if your child is in the White Bear Lake School District, reach out to your child's administrative team at school for a referral! Or give us a call at Natalis at 651-379-5157.

November is Early Childhood Mental Health Awareness Month!

At Natalis, we believe that supporting children’s emotional wellbeing starts long before they can put their feelings into words. Early experiences shape how kids grow, connect, and thrive—and every child deserves a strong foundation.

This month, we’re raising awareness about the importance of early relationships, play, safety, and responsive caregiving in nurturing healthy development.

If you have questions about your child’s emotional or behavioral growth, our team is here to help—whether through parent support, early childhood therapy, psychological testing, or simply offering guidance.

Healthy beginnings lead to healthy futures.

Learn more by connecting with us at Natalis, 651-379-5157 or info@natalispsychology.com.
