About Roxanne
Roxanne Parsa is a California-based licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who helps people facing relationship strain, family stress, parenting challenges, and the lasting effects of trauma. She also supports clients dealing with codependency, addiction concerns, infidelity, and questions about life purpose. Sessions are offered in English and Persian.
Roxanne brings seven years of clinical experience to the work and emphasizes building understanding about how past patterns shape current relationships. She takes a practical, down-to-earth approach that focuses on small changes clients can try between sessions. Conversations aim to clarify goals and improve day-to-day interactions.
Her style draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing relationship patterns and on mindfulness techniques to help with emotional regulation and stress. Somatic methods are used when people notice physical tension or for grounding after difficult memories. Trauma-focused approaches guide work with abuse or PTSD-related concerns.
Roxanne also offers coaching-style support for people who want clearer direction or stronger confidence in life decisions. That work tends to be goal-oriented and collaborative, with steps to practice in real situations. She frames therapy and coaching as a partnership.
People seeking help are invited to consider what they most want to change and to start with a short matching questionnaire. From there scheduling is arranged according to the therapist's availability.
How Roxanne’s Approaches Work Online
Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed. It often focuses on simple breathing and grounding skills that reduce reactivity and improve emotional control, which can be helpful for anxiety and relationship conflict.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns that come from earlier relationships and life events. This approach helps people see how those patterns show up now, so they can make different choices in relationships and parenting.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean starting with practical mindfulness tools and adding deeper psychodynamic or somatic work over time.
Practical benefits of online therapy include more flexibility to fit sessions into busy schedules and easier attendance when travel time is a barrier.
