Roxane Pakit, LCSW

Roxane Pakit is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with decades of experience helping people manage big life shifts. She offers steady support for stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and parenting concerns, and other midlife challenges. Roxane’s manner is practical and direct, aimed at helping people find clearer choices and calmer days.

Roxane trained at Adelphi University where she earned a Master of Social Work, and she has held her New Jersey LCSW since the early 1980s. Over forty years in practice have given her wide exposure to different cultures and life situations, including work and family pressures. That background informs a straightforward style built around listening and problem solving.

Her sessions draw on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral ideas to notice thoughts and try new behaviors. She also uses emotionally-focused and psychodynamic approaches to look at relationship patterns and deeper feelings. Roxane weaves these methods together with practical skills for managing anger, stress, and addictive behaviors.

People meet her for help with grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy and self-esteem concerns, ADHD, career transitions, and forgiveness work. She also addresses attachment, blended family issues, communication problems, and caregiver stress. The focus is on setting clear goals and taking usable steps forward.

Roxane emphasizes collaboration in therapy. She works with each person to set goals, track progress, and adjust the plan as needed. Readers should confirm current session formats before booking.

How Roxane’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s needs and choices, offering a calm space to talk and decide what matters most; it helps people clarify goals and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings in emotion regulation and coping skills for intense feelings and impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a shared task. Roxane will discuss options with each person and tailor methods to the individual’s goals and day-to-day life. That means adjusting techniques over time and trying what fits best rather than committing to a single method up front.

Confirm the current session formats before booking so expectations match reality. Many people find online work helps them fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and keep continuity during life changes. Online sessions can make it easier to have a shorter check-in during a break, choose a quieter time of day, or avoid commutes while still doing the focused work of therapy.
