About Roxanna
Roxanna Winkes-Anthony is a psychotherapist with forty years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, addiction concerns, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship challenges. Her style is straightforward and respectful, and she aims to make therapy practical and understandable for busy families.
She listens first to what matters most to each person. Then she uses approaches that fit the problem and the person. Sessions are focused on real-life steps people can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Conversations often include learning new coping skills and checking what works in daily life. Her background includes long experience in addiction services and work with people managing post-traumatic stress, mood disorders, and medical or caregiving stress. She has also supported people through separation, life changes, and end-of-life concerns.
That variety shapes a flexible approach suited to many challenges. Roxanna combines practical techniques with attention to each person’s story. She uses methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment ideas, narrative approaches, and a client-centered way of working.
This mix helps with both immediate symptoms and underlying patterns. Roxanna holds an MD and is a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical, LCSW-C. She practices from Maryland and speaks English.
Her long career gives her familiarity with many kinds of problems and the practical realities people face when they seek help.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that match those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing concrete skills to change them. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space so people can find their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From there she and the client decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people read body language and have a close conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins, journaling-style reflections, or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other busy schedules.
