LGBT therapists in Troy, MI

I have worked as Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for over 8 years in a variety of settings ranging from trauma, impact of addictions on mental and emotional wellbeing, to relationship issues and more. I tend to be laid back and easily approached with no judgement, no criticism and no assumptions.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work that is passionate about supporting women, teens, and those who are navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, family and relationship issues, low self-esteem, and life stressors. Perhaps you who have not felt like yourself or have not found your voice due to everyone else having a say about your life choices. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel heard, understood, and genuinely supported. With nine years experience and through lived experience, my work focuses on helping you manage those concerns, as I have worked with multiple populations including children, teens, and adults.

Something often gets lost between what you're carrying and how you talk about it. For clients who find it easier in Spanish, or who want a therapist who works with mind and body together, that gap can feel especially wide. I'm Roxanna, a bilingual (Spanish/English) social worker in Michigan with an integrative, eclectic approach. I work with children, teens, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, relationship strain, cultural and identity pressures, and more. Whether you speak English, Spanish, or move between both, all of you is welcome here. I would love to be that space.

Welcome to this courageous journey! If you’ve found your way here—even with hesitation or uncertainty—you’ve already taken a powerful first step: listening to the part of you that longs for healing, clarity, and growth. That alone is an act of strength. You don’t have to walk this path alone. I’m here to walk beside you—as a steady companion—through the valleys and the victories, the questions and the breakthroughs. Together, we’ll create space for your story, your healing, and your becoming.

I hold an MA and PhD in Counseling Psychology from Boston College and Indiana State University, where I received extensive training in multiculturalism and trauma-informed care. Over the past years, I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of clinical settings—including university counseling centers and community mental health agencies—supporting individuals from all walks of life. I am a certified EMDR therapist and an approved consultant of the EMDRIA.

I'll try to summarize quickly so you don't have to scan far.

Not every therapist is for everyone. Fit matters more than anything, and you deserve a connection that feels safe and open. With my clients I try to be real and honest, while maintaining empathy, presence and humor. We can go slow, laugh, cry, and move at your pace.

We might fit well if: You're anxious or struggling to cope with the state of the world. You've experienced loss/grief. You're working on relationships and boundaries. You're trying to "be you" in a world that doesn't support. You're feeling challenged parenting, partnering, and "doing it all". Newness is hard.

I am a board-certified PMHNP with extensive experience in the field of mental health. With a comprehensive background spanning child and adult inpatient and outpatient settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise into practice. Committed to providing holistic and compassionate care. I combine psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy to address the unique needs of each patient.

Before earning my Masters in Counseling, I earned a PhD in social and personality psychology. This background deeply informs how I show up as a therapist. I help clients address unresolved trauma and grief, anxiety and OCD, address relationship issues, as well as "problems of everyday living." My style is active, engaged, and practical.
