About Johannes
Dr. Johannes (Jean) Roux is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who focuses on practical help for anxiety, stress, grief, and life changes. He speaks English and Afrikaans and draws on two decades of clinical work to guide people through hard moments.
He aims to make sessions straightforward and compassionate so clients can talk through immediate concerns and plan next steps. He uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape the work.
Background and approach
That means sessions often look at the connections between thoughts and feelings, the stories people tell about themselves, and concrete steps to move forward. He pairs talk therapy with coaching-style tools when helpful to set goals and track progress. Roux trained in clinical health psychology and behavioral medicine and holds a PhD.
He also completed leadership study and coaching programs. His credential is LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - in California. These backgrounds inform both clinical and coaching elements of his practice.
Sessions can be arranged by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Roux typically works weekdays and checks messages on certain days, so scheduling follows the available times he maintains. He frames therapy as a partnership where the client's preferences help shape the pace and methods.
People seek him out for a wide range of concerns including depression, addiction, relationship struggles, caregiving stress, chronic illness, career issues, and questions about identity. He aims to meet each person where they are and focus on practical, manageable changes.
How his approaches work in online sessions
Dr. Roux uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice thought patterns that feed anxiety and stress, then practice new ways of thinking and behaving that reduce distress. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe their life stories and separate problems from identity so they can try different paths forward. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, concrete steps and goals that lead to noticeable change in daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts the mix as progress is made. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues for deeper work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief reflections, coaching prompts, or follow-up between sessions possible. These options let people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep continuity when travel or work makes in-person visits difficult.
