Roxane Pakit, LCSW

Roxane Pakit is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with forty years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, addiction concerns, and grief. She works directly with individuals to clarify what matters to them and to set practical goals. Roxane uses clear, down-to-earth language and focuses on small, steady changes that fit into daily life.

She trained at Adelphi University where she earned a Master of Social Work. Her long career includes work with people from a wide range of backgrounds and life situations. That breadth informs a flexible approach that adapts to each person's history and needs.

Roxane combines several therapy styles in sessions. She draws on client-centered methods to keep the client’s priorities central. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Emotion-focused and psychodynamic ideas guide conversations about emotional patterns and past relationships.

In sessions she also addresses practical skills like stress and anger management, parenting techniques, communication at work, and coping with life changes. She pays attention to issues such as abandonment, attachment, adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, and codependency when they are relevant to a person’s goals.

Her style is collaborative. Clients and Roxane work together to pick strategies that feel manageable. She emphasizes self-awareness, forgiveness of self and others, and steady steps toward a more satisfying life.

Approaches used and how they fit online

Client-centered work keeps the person’s priorities in focus and helps shape what happens in sessions. This approach is about listening closely and responding to what the client says they want to change. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT makes room for small experiments and new coping skills for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that match the client’s needs and preferences. Decisions about techniques are made together, and the plan can shift as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, making it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, or allowing people to meet from a convenient location. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skills practice so progress continues between sessions.
