Schedule a consultation
Support for big feelings, behavioral challenges, neurodivergence, social skills, school, and developmental transitions.
Through play and conversation, we make room for feelings that can be difficult to put into words. Parent work helps connect what happens in therapy with everyday life at home.
A space to navigate anxiety, identity, relationships, academic pressure, and what comes next.
Therapy offers a place to feel heard, understand reactions, and build ways to manage stress while developing a stronger sense of self and independence.
Support for anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Together, we make sense of what keeps you stuck and work toward greater confidence, connection, and ease in daily life.
We explore the experiences and relationship patterns shaping your life today, while working with the concrete challenges that bring you to therapy.
Guidance, perspective, and practical support for the complexities of raising children and strengthening family relationships.
Together, we look at what your child may be communicating through behavior, understand family dynamics, and develop responses that support connection and clearer boundaries.
Areas of support
My approach
My work is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy and informed by evidence-based approaches. I take a thoughtful, individualized, and collaborative approach, integrating clinical understanding with practical tools to help you or your child work toward meaningful, lasting change.
We pay attention both to what is happening now and to the patterns underneath it. Depending on your needs, I draw on approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and reflective parenting. Our work makes room for understanding, alongside strategies you can use outside the session.

Telehealth in California & Colorado
I’m Roxane Cohanim, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working with children, adolescents, adults, parents, and families. I am licensed in California and authorized to provide telehealth services to clients in Colorado.
I believe meaningful change begins with feeling deeply understood. Symptoms and behaviors rarely tell the whole story. They often express something that is difficult to recognize or put into words. My style is warm, engaged, and thoughtful. I help clients understand the emotions and patterns behind their difficulties, while developing practical ways to navigate everyday life and relationships.
My perspective has been shaped by nearly a decade of clinical experience across private practice, child and family mental health, college counseling, and community mental health. My work is grounded in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic psychotherapy. My training includes the two-year Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program at the Psychoanalytic Center of California and ongoing training and supervision with Joshua Durban, a renowned child and adult psychoanalyst. I also draw from psychodynamic play therapy, reflective parenting, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy.
I earned my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and a Certificate in Child and Family Mental Health and Wellness from Boston College. At the center of my work is a therapeutic relationship where clients feel known and respected, complexity is welcome, and there is room for warmth, honesty, humor, and hope.
