About Roxane
Roxane Pakit is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with four decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship challenges. She works with individuals on issues like parenting, grief, intimacy concerns, and coping with life changes. Roxane draws on a long career in New Jersey to offer steady, practical support.
In sessions she focuses on building clear goals together and helping clients notice patterns that get in the way. She uses client-centered methods to listen closely and tailor the work to each person’s situation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.
Roxane also draws from dialectical behavior ideas to teach emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills when feelings run high. Emotionally-Focused Therapy influences her work around closeness and communication, helping people improve how they relate. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at long-standing patterns that repeat across relationships.
She has worked with people from many backgrounds and brings that experience into sessions. Roxane links practical tools, such as stress-management and communication skills, with deeper conversation about meaning and attachment. Expect a mix of skills practice and reflective discussion.
Her approach emphasizes collaboration, self-awareness, and steps you can try between meetings. She encourages people navigating adoption and foster care concerns, abandonment and attachment issues, blended family stress, and caregiver burnout to explore both immediate coping and longer-term change.
Approaches that guide online work and progress
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration; the therapist mirrors concerns, helps clarify goals, and supports the client in finding their own solutions. This approach is useful for building trust and making therapy feel personally relevant.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It offers concrete exercises and homework that can reduce anxiety, lift mood, and change patterns that cause distress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, provides practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These tools are often helpful when people struggle with anger, relationship instability, or stress that feels overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can be adjusted over time in a collaborative way.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find virtual sessions allow therapy to fit into a busy week, make short check-ins feasible, and remove commuting time so longer sessions are easier to schedule. Discuss practical needs with the therapist to find a format that matches your rhythm and goals.
