Background and approach
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and uses empathic listening to build insight. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills offer tools for emotion regulation and coping when feelings feel overwhelming. Roxane’s experience spans many kinds of life challenges, including addictions, grief, trauma and relationship and family difficulties.
She also supports people facing career strain, parenting stress, identity and intimacy concerns, and adjustment after life changes. Her work emphasizes clear communication and practical steps for everyday problems. Sessions can include talking through immediate problems, learning new skills for handling strong feelings, and planning small changes that add up.
Roxane combines supportive listening with techniques that help people try different approaches between visits. She aims to help people build more stable routines and better ways of relating to others. With a long history in clinical practice, Roxane brings both experience and a calm, patient manner.
She works in English and offers several online formats, making it possible to fit therapy into a busy life.
Practical approaches that translate to online therapy
Roxane uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy as cornerstones of her online work. CBT focuses on identifying thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems stuck and teaches concrete steps to test and change them, which can be practiced between sessions to reduce anxiety and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy to help people feel heard and to increase self-understanding, a helpful foundation when exploring relationship or identity concerns.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when strong emotions or self-management are central issues. DBT offers clear skills for managing intense feelings, improving relationships, and tolerating distress, which can be reviewed and practiced in remote sessions. Choosing which approach to emphasize is collaborative - Roxane will work with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skill coaching and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be an easier option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging let people share updates between sessions and get brief support or reminders about skills. These options aim to make therapy fit into busy schedules and varied life demands.
