About Roxann
Roxann Francis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with five years of practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, low self esteem, relationship concerns, mood shifts, and work-related strain. She also supports people coping with life changes, bipolar disorder, depression, and compassion fatigue.
Roxann uses straightforward conversation to identify specific problems and small steps that make daily life easier. She works from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of responding to them.
Her style centers on clear goals and practical strategies. That can include experimenting with different coping skills, learning ways to break cycles of negative thinking, and building routines that support mood and energy. She pays attention to what is realistic for each person’s day-to-day life.
Roxann draws on five years of clinical experience in New York to shape plans that fit where someone is right now. She encourages gradual change rather than quick fixes. Conversations include checking progress and adjusting strategies when needed.
If someone is ready to try a structured approach to stress, mood, or family-related concerns, Roxann helps set up the first steps. The initial process involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session so goals can be clarified and early priorities set.
How Roxann uses structured approaches in online sessions
Roxann works from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and test thoughts that feed anxiety or low mood. CBT involves identifying specific unhelpful thoughts, trying new responses, and tracking what changes over time. It is useful for stress, depression, and everyday worry.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and shaping sessions around the person’s priorities. That approach supports clearer goals and practical choices. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness where those skills are relevant.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their problems, goals, and preferences. That means adjusting techniques over time and checking what feels useful.
