About Roxanna
Roxanna McNeil is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 45 years of clinical work. She practices in Colorado and draws on decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and anger. She focuses on real-life concerns such as parenting, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, career stress, and coping with big life changes.
Her long career also includes work with trauma and abuse, bipolar challenges, and compassion fatigue. Roxanna keeps sessions straightforward and centered on the person in front of her.
Background and approach
She creates a calm space where thoughts and feelings can be named without judgment. Conversations are practical and paced to fit what feels manageable for each client. She uses familiar, evidence-informed approaches to help people make small changes that build over time.
Techniques include cognitive behavioral ideas to identify and shift unhelpful thinking, client-centered listening to clarify priorities, and mindfulness practices to ease overwhelm. Roxanna’s background includes many years in clinical practice and time as a university professor. That experience helps her explain ideas clearly and tailor tools to different situations.
She brings patience and steady support as clients try new strategies. People contact her when they want help sorting complicated emotions, improving communication, or finding ways to manage daily stress. She works collaboratively and respects each person’s pace and goals.
Approaches for online family and parenting concerns
Roxanna uses client-centered work to listen deeply and follow what matters most to each person. This approach focuses on empathy and making space for feelings, which can help when sorting relationship stress or family roles.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts affect mood and behavior. CBT offers clear, step-by-step strategies for managing anxiety, anger, sleep or eating problems, and coping with life changes.
Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help reduce overwhelm and improve focus. Simple breathing and attention exercises can be used between sessions to steady reactions and make small changes feel easier.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and daily life. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit people on the go, and live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins or ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into parenting and work schedules and to keep momentum when life gets busy.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
