Roxane Pakit, LCSW

Roxane Pakit is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Jersey with four decades of clinical experience. She earned a Master of Social Work from Adelphi University in New York and has been licensed to provide clinical therapy since the early 1980s. As an LCSW, she is trained and authorized to assess emotional and behavioral concerns and to provide psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families.

Roxane draws on an integrative toolset that blends William Glasser's choice theory, cognitive behavioral techniques, family systems thinking, and emotionally focused supportive methods, alongside work that emphasizes forgiveness of self and others. This combination allows her to tailor care to each person, addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, anger, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting and blended family challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, and a range of attachment and adoption-related matters.

Her practice emphasizes collaborative goal-setting and the development of self-awareness to help clients navigate life changes and improve coping skills. Roxane has worked with people from diverse socio-economic backgrounds, ethnicities, and religious traditions, bringing a respectful, experienced, and patient approach to each therapeutic relationship.

Approaches and Online Support for Lasting Change

Roxane draws on client-centered therapy to place the person's experience and goals at the heart of the work, creating a respectful and collaborative space to explore feelings and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, another core approach she uses, focuses on identifying and adjusting patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, stress, and coping difficulties. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps partners and families better understand and respond to emotional needs, which is often useful for relationship, attachment, and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Roxane works together with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Offering sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, Roxane provides flexible access to licensed therapy that can fit into varied schedules and life situations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while addressing stress, communication, parenting, grief, addiction, and other challenges from wherever the client is located within New Jersey.
