About Roxana

Roxana Phillips is a licensed clinical mental health counselor practicing in North Carolina. She brings 29 years of experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, intimacy-related issues, life transitions, and professional coaching concerns. She emphasizes the client's perspective and strengths from the first session.

Roxana centers her work on a client-centered approach that treats each person as the expert in their own life. She pairs that stance with practical tools from cognitive behavioral and solution-focused methods when helpful. Sessions often include simple skill practice and clear steps to try between meetings.

Mindfulness and narrative techniques are part of her toolbox too. She uses mindfulness to help people notice patterns of thought and reduce reactivity. Narrative approaches help people clarify values and reframe difficult chapters of life into manageable pieces.

She also supports people facing aging and geriatric concerns, caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life topics, and recovery after natural or human-caused disasters. Issues like isolation, midlife questions, seasonal affective disorder, and women's concerns are included in her focus areas.

Her tone is direct and encouraging. Roxana aims to make starting therapy feel doable, with clear next steps and practical strategies that fit a busy life.

How client-centered care adapts to online work

Roxana uses client-centered therapy as the foundation of her work, which means she begins by listening and following each person's priorities. This approach helps people set goals that feel meaningful to them and shapes how sessions proceed. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides clear tools for managing anxiety and stress, such as identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying small behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention skills and simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional awareness.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Roxana works together with clients to decide which combination of methods fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time and checks in about what is helping and what should change.

Session format details are not specified here, so please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. It can also let people use practices like brief mindfulness exercises between sessions. Ask about formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
