Rosemary Magaña

Hi, I’m Rosy. I’m the founder of Adelante Counseling and Wellness, where we focus on culturally responsive care, liberatory and compassion centered approaches, and supporting individuals and organizations through growth and transition. I’m a therapist, consultant, and facilitator dedicated to creating supportive, grounded spaces for people and organizations to move forward with clarity and compassion.

My work is rooted in trauma-informed social justice principles, and I’m passionate about supporting people as they navigate life changes and reconnect with their strengths and priorities that feel true to them.

In addition to my individual therapy services, I partner with nonprofits, schools, and organizations to support staff wellness, program evaluation, and skill-building workshops. Whether I’m collaborating with an organization or sitting with a client one on one, I focus on listening deeply, promoting self  and community compassion, and meeting people where they are.

I love spending time with my family, pretending to roar like a lion while having a dance party with my toddler, and sharing loud, make you cry laughs with my primas. I enjoy wandering Chicago’s streets, taking in the food, art, and community connections (though not always the weather). I value rest and recharge through restorative yoga practice and rewatching comfort shows or movies.
