About Roxana

LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker) with 3 years of experience. Roxana Chavez focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and depression. She also works with chronic pain, illness and disability, post-traumatic stress, sexuality, and women’s issues.

Roxana uses plain, practical talk in sessions. She draws on her background in community mental health and direct client care. She also teaches an introduction to mindfulness and brings those practices into sessions when helpful.

In a typical meeting she listens to what matters now, helps identify small steps a person can try, and practices grounding or breath techniques when needed. Sessions often include discussion of coping strategies and brief experiential exercises. She aims to make treatment practical and understandable for people under stress.

Roxana’s approach is person-centered and informed by evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She helps people process trauma, manage symptoms of anxiety and depression, and navigate grief and life changes. For clients facing chronic pain or illness she addresses both emotional reactions and daily coping methods.

Her training as a LICSW and her community mental health work shape how she plans care. Roxana offers straightforward explanations of options and partners with clients to choose methods that fit their goals. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling details to make sure they match your needs.

Sheet 2

Evidence-based approaches and online practice

Roxana draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside mindfulness practices she teaches. Trauma-informed approaches focus on stabilizing symptoms first, using grounding and breath work to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. For grief and depression, short-term behavioral strategies help identify small, actionable steps a person can try to change routines and increase activities that feel manageable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Roxana will review options with each person and decide together which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which session types are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and options that do not require being on camera can suit people who prefer audio-only meetings or lower-bandwidth connections.
