Background and approach

Roxane blends client-centered work with cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques. In a typical session she listens first, then offers practical strategies to try between meetings. She tailors conversations and goals to each person’s situation rather than using one fixed plan.

Her background includes long-term work with adults who experienced childhood abuse and with people recovering from physical trauma and emotional abuse. This experience informs how she approaches healing after difficult events and helps guide realistic coping steps. People describe her approach as supportive and goal-oriented.

She combines questions that clarify patterns with exercises that build new skills. The focus is on small, doable changes that add up over time. Roxane works with English-speaking clients in Maryland and accepts international clients for remote sessions.

She offers several online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

How Roxane's Approaches Work Online

Roxane uses client-centered therapy to make sessions focused on each person's experience and priorities. That means conversations start with listening and reflect what matters most to the client, which can help with relationship concerns, grief, and self-esteem issues.

She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. CBT offers practical tools for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood regulation by breaking problems into steps and practicing changes between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Roxane will discuss goals and try methods that fit the client's needs and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress is made. This collaborative process helps decide whether client-centered listening, CBT, or another style best supports change.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video allows face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone calls use less bandwidth and can be simpler during a break at work. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick coaching, or ongoing support between sessions. These formats aim to make consistent work on anxiety, trauma recovery, and other goals more accessible and manageable.
