With years of experience in providing compassionate and evidence-based therapy, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping children, adults, and families navigate life’s challenges.
I believe prioritizing mental health is an important part of creating a balanced and fulfilling life, and I know reaching out for support is often one of the hardest steps to take. Since beginning my practice in 2021, I have worked primarily with adults navigating challenges related to anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, and life transitions. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered as we work together toward healing, self understanding, and meaningful growth.
I believe when people find their purpose they find motivation. I am a neurodivergent therapist who understands others challenges and work at ensuring the client understands the why of what one does to foster behavioral changes.
Great to meet you!
As your therapist I strive to create a warm, safe, engaging space where we can explore your strengths and build a do-able plan to help get you through the tough spots.

Hello, I'm so happy you found me! I'm Roxann Pazdera, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and owner of Birch Grove Family Therapy. Whether your family is navigating emotional challenges, behavioral concerns, family conflict, or the aftermath of a mental health crisis, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where healing and growth can occur. I truly strive to meet you where you are. I believe that healing begins with feeling safe, supported, and truly understood. My goal is to help you gain insight, build practical coping skills, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change without fear of judgement.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and families experiencing difficulties related to emotional regulation, attachment, anxiety, family relationships, and transitions following higher levels of care. I am particularly passionate about helping caregivers better understand their children's emotional needs while strengthening relationships.
I am drawn to this work because I’m a parent myself. My areas of interest grew from recognizing the need for stronger family support services and more accessible step-down care for children and teens following inpatient or other high-acuity treatment. My practice is intentionally small so I can provide personalized, high-quality care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Madison, WI
Finding OCD therapists in Madison starts with looking for the right training, not just a matching specialty tag. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is an evidence-based therapy for OCD, and not every therapist has specific training in it. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention ERP, intrusive thoughts, compulsions, contamination fears, checking, reassurance seeking, or pure O therapy. A therapist’s listed approach can help you see whether their experience matches the concerns you want to address.
Madison has a strong mental health care community, but the right OCD therapist may depend on more than location alone. Some people prefer in-person OCD therapy near home, work, or campus, while others use virtual appointments to widen their options beyond a nearby office. As you narrow your search, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and how they describe their OCD experience. A therapist who lists OCD as an area of familiarity may offer different support than one who specifically describes ERP training, structured exposure work, or experience with pure O concerns.
Therapy in Madison can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more manageable. Headway helps you find Madison therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists by specialty, appointment format, availability, and insurance fit, then book directly when you’re ready.
