Roxanne Mitchell, LPC

Roxanne Mitchell is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings seven years of hands-on experience to therapy. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, or addiction. Roxanne emphasizes clear, down-to-earth conversation so people can start making manageable changes right away.

She centers sessions on each person's strengths. Roxanne listens first, then works with clients to pick practical strategies that fit their life. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and dialectical approaches to help people shift thoughts and behaviors that cause distress.

Her background includes work with first responder trauma, LGBTQ concerns, domestic violence, and co-occurring mental health and substance issues. She also supports people facing parenting challenges, grief, relationship strain, and attention difficulties. Roxanne draws on experience with a wide range of life stressors to tailor her approach.

In sessions she balances straightforward skill teaching with space to process feelings. That can mean learning new coping skills, trying small behavior changes, or examining values and meaning when life feels unsettled. The aim is steady, practical progress that people can notice week to week.

Roxanne works with people in Michigan and accepts international clients for online care. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. To get started, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Approaches that guide online care

Roxanne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT often involves setting small goals, practicing new skills, and trying different responses between sessions to reduce anxiety or depression.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore their concerns at their own pace. That approach is useful when someone needs acceptance and steady support while making changes.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used when emotional regulation and stress tolerance are key goals. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing intense feelings, improving communication, and tolerating difficult moments without acting impulsively.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Roxanne will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before to determine which methods to emphasize. She adapts the plan as people try techniques and give feedback so therapy stays relevant to day-to-day life.

Online therapy can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time. Video calls let people work face to face from home, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit brief check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options aim to make consistent care more manageable around work, family, and other commitments.
