Meet Roxanne
Roxanne is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in the state of Wyoming.
Roxanne got a psychology degree with a philosophy minor from the University of Wyoming in 2014. Later, she earned an MSW from Winthrop University in South Carolina in 2018.
With over 7 years of experience in clinical counseling, Roxanne has honed her skills and expertise in helping individuals navigate through various challenges. She is particularly passionate about equine assisted psychotherapy (EAP) and has been certified in this experiential approach since 2018. (Check out the video about how equine therapy works!) Additionally, Roxanne is trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and holds a certification in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT). Roxanne is also a certified yoga teacher, which is not officially a type of therapy, but certainly helps to teach clients grounding techniques in times of stress.
Roxanne has worked in a variety of settings with a variety of people. She worked in North Carolina in a private practice, Bit of Hope, using trauma focused equine therapy. She’s also worked in an inpatient facility, Alternative to Meds Center, in Sedona Arizona with adults tapering off of antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication.
For the past two years, Roxanne has been working with adolescent girls in Sheridan. She now joins Rachel Payne, LPC at Alpine Roots Counseling as a psychotherapist for adolescents and adults.
Roxanne's therapeutic approach is centered around fostering personal growth and achieving a greater sense of self.
She believes that therapy is not a linear, short-term process but rather a transformative journey towards fulfillment. Depending on your needs and preferences, Roxanne offers both traditional office sessions and the option to incorporate equine therapy sessions into your treatment plan.
As a believer in the healing nature of animals, Roxanne is also in the process of training her golden shepherd puppy, Odin, to be a therapy dog. Odin has been known to make guest appearances in office sessions with clients who are interested.
Roxanne's ultimate goal is to support you in becoming the best version of yourself, week after week. By working collaboratively, she will help you navigate life's challenges and develop a stronger sense of self.
