Rose Hellat, MSW, LICSW
A Journey of Resilience and Community Building

Mental Health Practice — Rose Hellat MSW LICSW

Rooted in both personal history and professional dedication, Rose Hellat Therapy & Wellness offers trauma-informed mental health services shaped by a deep understanding of what it means to navigate instability, identity, and generational disruption.

Rose is a dual citizen born and raised in Minneapolis, MN, with roots in Estonia—where she later reclaimed her birthright citizenship as an adult. Her lived experience of cultural disconnection, migration, and reconnection to heritage profoundly shapes the way she understands trauma and healing. Growing up within a complex family system and the echoes of displacement, she learned early how instability impacts individuals and communities at every level.

These experiences guided her toward social work as both a profession and a calling. She believes healing is not a solitary journey but a collective one—built through connection, safety, and the belief that people heal best when they are seen and supported.

At Rose Hellat Therapy & Wellness, clients experience a grounded, relational approach that blends evidence-based practice with deep empathy. Rose’s work centers on helping people untangle emotional and systemic barriers, rebuild inner stability, and move forward in their lives with clarity and resilience. Her vision is to help create inclusive, self-sustaining communities by bridging the gap between people and the resources that can change their lives.

Sewing & Creative Studio — Sew It Together

Sew It Together is Rose’s passion project—an echo of her childhood, a tribute to her heritage, and a creative home for community. Rose originally went to school for sewing after growing up making her own clothes throughout childhood and adolescence. Her earliest lessons came from her mother, who stitched garments at home and sometimes made matching outfits for Rose, weaving love, creativity, and culture into every seam.

These memories became the foundation for Sew It Together, a sewing studio built on the principles of community, craftsmanship, and quiet creativity. The studio offers workshops, open sewing hours, and space for people of all skill levels to learn from one another. It is intentionally designed as a calm environment where individuals can slow down, create with their hands, and reconnect with themselves through the meditative art of sewing.

Sew It Together is not simply a place to make clothing—it is a space where people can rebuild confidence, share knowledge, and experience the restorative power of making something from nothing. It reflects Rose’s belief that healing and creativity often meet in the same place: community. The space is run by a crew of gals who are invested in community building and helping others know the craft.
