Roxanne Holmes

Maybe the same arguments keep happening at home, or you and your partner feel distant and struggle to reconnect. Maybe you’re navigating a new role as a husband, wife, or parent, and adjusting feels harder than you expected. Maybe life after a new baby feels overwhelming, or stress has been building quietly until everything feels heavy. Whatever brought you here, we can start with where you are and work together toward the changes you want to make.

I’m Roxanne, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I have experience helping couples improve communication, rebuild trust, reconnect emotionally, and work through challenges with physical and emotional intimacy. Together, we can explore what’s keeping you disconnected and work toward a more fulfilling relationship.

Much of my work also centers on family relationships, parenting, and the many roles women are asked to carry. I welcome clients navigating grief, painful past experiences, questions of identity, and the push and pull of cultural expectations. I hold master’s degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy and School Counseling, and my experience spans private practice, schools, homes, and community settings.

I'm warm and open-minded, and I'm also direct. If I see a pattern that may be keeping you stuck, I'll name it gently and honestly, even when it's hard to hear. I believe you deserve real feedback, not just reassurance. I don't follow a script. Instead, I shape our work around what matters most to you, drawing on approaches like family systems and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to understand how your thoughts, feelings, and relationships connect. With couples, I use Gottman-informed tools to help partners step out of painful cycles and find their way back to each other. With families, I pay attention to how each person affects the others, so everyone can feel more understood at home. Our sessions will have structure and direction, while still leaving room for whatever is on your mind that day.

Our work together will begin with understanding what brought you to therapy, identifying your concerns, and setting clear goals for what you want to change. You can share at a pace that feels comfortable and ask questions along the way. For couples and families, each person will have space to share their perspective.

Together, we will create a plan tailored to your needs. We will identify patterns that keep you feeling stuck, practice strategies for managing stress and emotions, and build skills for communicating clearly and navigating conflict. For those experiencing relationship challenges, we will also focus on rebuilding connection, strengthening trust, and improving emotional and physical intimacy.

As we move forward, we will review your progress, adjust the plan as needed, and identify practical steps you can use between sessions. The goal is to help you feel more confident in handling challenges and creating lasting changes in your daily life and relationships.
