About Roxane

Roxane Pakit is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with four decades of practice in New Jersey. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and parenting concerns, ADHD, grief, trauma, and other life changes. Roxane aims to make therapy clear and practical so people can use what they learn right away.

She blends straightforward talking therapies with skills practice. Sessions often focus on identifying unhelpful thinking, building emotion regulation skills, and improving communication.

Background and approach

Roxane also draws on longer-term exploration of relationship patterns when that helps someone understand recurring problems. Her approach is collaborative. Roxane works with each person to set goals and choose techniques that fit their life.

She pays attention to how family background, attachment, and past losses shape current struggles, and she helps people work toward better day-to-day coping. Roxane has worked with clients from many cultural and economic backgrounds. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including codependency, commitment and intimacy worries, caregiver stress, blended family and adoption issues, and substance-related problems.

People often bring practical problems alongside emotional pain, and she addresses both. Practical skills are a regular part of meetings. That can include breathing and emotional grounding, problem-focused plans, communication rehearsal, and strategies to manage impulsive or addictive behavior.

Over time Roxane helps people build routines and habits that support lasting change.

Approaches that guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify goals, feel heard, and make choices that match their values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical techniques for reducing anxiety, managing depression, and changing unhelpful behavior patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It is useful for impulsive behaviors, intense anger, and difficulty tolerating distress.

Choosing an approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Techniques can be adapted over time as progress is reviewed.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when helpful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are useful for short check-ins, homework review, and staying connected between longer sessions. These options make therapy easier to fit around work, caregiving, and other obligations.
