About Roxane

Roxane Pakit is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Jersey with forty years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and parenting concerns, trauma and grief. She also supports issues around intimacy, anger, self-esteem, career changes, ADHD and bipolar mood concerns.

Over four decades Roxane has worked with people from many backgrounds and life situations. She combines practical, talk-based methods with a focus on relationship patterns and emotional responses. Sessions tend to center on identifying what causes distress and testing small changes that can make daily life more manageable.

Her approach draws from client-centered work and psychodynamic thinking to look at how past experiences shape present reactions. She also uses cognitive behavioral methods to change unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns. Dialectical behavior strategies appear when emotion regulation and coping skills are priorities.

Roxane integrates emotionally focused techniques when relationship patterns or attachment concerns are part of the problem. She names communication skills, forgiveness work, and clearer boundaries as common tools she brings into sessions. Parents often work on practical parenting skills alongside stress and anger management strategies.

She asks clients to set collaborative goals and to try small, measurable steps between meetings. The work is practical and anchored to everyday life demands like work, family roles, and caregiving stress. To begin, prospective clients complete a short match questionnaire and schedule a first session.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy means conversations focus on the client's priorities and immediate concerns. Sessions often start with the client's goal for the week and work from there, which helps with practical problems like parenting stress or workplace communication.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT sessions can include tracking moods, testing small behavior changes, and practicing new ways of responding between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete coping and emotion regulation skills for intense feelings and relationship conflict and can be used when those skills are needed.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Roxane collaborates with each person to decide whether CBT, DBT, emotionally focused techniques, or a psychodynamic perspective fits best based on goals and preferences. That decision evolves as clients try different strategies and see what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and avoid travel time. Ask about session length and frequency when scheduling the first appointment.
