Meet Roxanne

Roxanne believes that current life situations and difficulties are greatly influenced by past experiences. Through deeply personal life events and lessons learned from our families and others, we developed behaviors, beliefs, and patterns as a way to cope that may not serve us well anymore.

The counseling relationship is one that is safe from shame, judgment, and rejection. It provides a space to explore and practice new and different ways of engaging with others and self. Together we can find newer, more adaptive beliefs and patterns that are more true to self.

Roxanne strives to honor people's stories and listen and learn about their experiences. She has experience working with college students and adults facing depression, anxiety, life transitions, and trauma.

What is one piece of advice that you would
give someone considering counseling?

“That counseling, like any other relationship, takes time to build trust. It’s ok to try out a counselor for a few sessions, and if you don’t feel comfortable, to try someone new. 

Also, I think many people worry that they are going to be judged for what they say or what they do in counseling or feel pressured to share everything at once. However, a good counselor will never judge you for what you reveal to them, and you have full control over what you decide to share and when.”
