How narrative and practical approaches work online
Roxana uses Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves. That work helps identify unhelpful patterns and opens up new ways to frame challenges. She also uses client-centered methods to listen deeply and shape the work around each person's priorities, values, and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers concrete tools to notice and change thoughts or behaviors that worsen stress and anxiety.Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Roxana will help you decide which methods fit your needs and goals. Together you will set short-term goals and try approaches that feel manageable, then adjust as you go.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to check in more frequently or fit brief check-ins around a busy schedule. These options make it easier to attend sessions from work, home, or while traveling and support flexible pacing of therapy.
