About Roxanne

Roxanne Parsa, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), is licensed in California and has seven years of practice experience. She works with relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting, and coaching. She describes her work as helping people gain insight and grow through life and relationship challenges.

Parsa draws on mindfulness, psychodynamic, somatic, and trauma-focused approaches. She uses mindfulness to help people notice patterns of thought and feeling in the moment. She uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how past relationships shape current behavior. Somatic methods bring attention to bodily reactions linked to stress and trauma.

Her practice includes work around attachment issues, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, codependency, and divorce and separation. She also addresses infidelity, jealousy, family-of-origin problems, and life purpose questions. Sexual and relationship diversity topics are included, such as BDSM, kink, and polyamory or non-monogamous relationships.

She has experience supporting people facing addiction and relapse, anxiety and panic, depression, grief and loss, anger issues, and body image concerns. Professional coaching is part of her background and is offered alongside clinical work when relevant.

Sessions are offered in English and Persian. Parsa works with adults, couples, and families according to her biography. International clients are not accepted at this time.

How Roxanne Parsa uses online approaches and therapies

Roxanne incorporates mindfulness and somatic perspectives that translate well to remote work. Mindfulness therapy helps people notice thoughts, emotions, and patterns in the moment and can be practiced through brief exercises during a session. Somatic therapy draws attention to bodily responses to stress and trauma and can use simple grounding or movement practices that clients can follow while online.

She also draws on psychodynamic and trauma-focused ideas to understand how past relationships influence current behavior and to address traumatic reactions. These approaches involve talking through patterns and developing greater awareness of triggers and responses. Deciding which methods to use is a collaborative process and the therapist will work with the client to identify what fits best with their goals and preferences.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how appointments are scheduled. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, support shorter check-ins when time is limited, and allow practices such as mindfulness or somatic exercises to be done in a familiar setting. Licensed professionals often adapt pacing and techniques to suit remote sessions.
