About Roxana

Roxana Phillips brings a cognitive behavioral framework alongside client-centered and mindfulness-informed perspectives to her practice, blending structured strategies with a strengths-based view. With 29 years of professional experience, she focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, navigate intimacy-related concerns, and adapt to significant life changes.

Background and approach

Her approach emphasizes practical tools and collaborative problem solving while honoring each client's unique story and resilience. Licensed as an LCMHC in North Carolina, Roxana also offers executive and professional coaching and supports people facing compassion fatigue, caregiving strain, and transitions related to aging, hospice, or end-of-life situations.

She draws on solution-focused and narrative techniques to help clients clarify priorities, reframe difficult experiences, and build self-compassion. For those coping with isolation, seasonal mood shifts, life purpose questions, or midlife transitions, she offers focused guidance grounded in real-world skills and personal values.

Approach-driven care delivered online

Roxana often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach is practical for managing anxiety, stress, and mood-related challenges. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard while exploring goals and values. Mindfulness therapy is incorporated to strengthen present-moment awareness and stress management skills, which can support coping with compassion fatigue, caregiving strain, and seasonal mood shifts.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic work. Roxana collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods over time so the plan aligns with how the client wants to progress. That collaborative process helps tailor short-term techniques or deeper narrative exploration depending on the situation.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and varying comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity when life changes occur and allow clients to access care from wherever they are in North Carolina, using the communication style that works best for them.
