About Roxane
Roxane Pakit is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 40 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship and family concerns, and other life changes. Roxane also lists blended family issues among her focus areas and will address those practical challenges directly.
She draws on several established approaches to guide sessions. Roxane uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thinking patterns that keep problems going. Elements of emotionally-focused and psychodynamic work appear in how she discusses attachment, past losses, and long-standing relationship patterns.
In early meetings Roxane focuses on concrete goals and small steps. She asks about current routines, caregiving demands, and sources of stress. Conversations can cover co-parenting tensions, loyalty conflicts in stepfamilies, mismatched household rules, and grief related to family change.
Sessions may include skill practice such as communication strategies or coping tools for anxiety and anger. She also brings problem-solving methods when facing substance or behavioral addiction concerns. Forgiveness of self and others is listed as part of how she frames recovery and repair work.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Adelphi University. Roxane notes experience with clients from varied socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds, and she aims to work together with each person to set realistic goals and next steps.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach tend to prioritize the client's concerns and set goals that feel achievable in day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and uses exercises to change unhelpful patterns; online CBT can include homework and short skill-practice between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills useful for anger, intense emotions, and relationship strain.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Roxane will discuss options and adapt methods based on the client’s goals, history, and what feels practical. She aims to be collaborative about whether to focus on skills practice, processing attachment and loss, or problem-solving household routines.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules. It can allow shorter check-ins when needed, or let people attend without traveling. For some, working online makes it simpler to practice new communication skills between sessions and apply solutions directly to everyday household situations.
