Roxsanna Stenuis

Roxsanna Stenuis is a Michigan-based licensed social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, and addiction. She brings 20 years of practice to each session and focuses on practical ways to feel steadier day to day.

She aims to make sessions straightforward and focused on what matters to the individual. Conversations often center on coping skills, clearer communication, and steps that can be tried between meetings. Roxsanna uses an empathetic, calm style so people can talk through painful experiences at a comfortable pace.

Her background includes long experience working with mood disorders, trauma and abuse, and substance use concerns. She also addresses issues like sleep and eating difficulties, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and challenges that come with caregiving or chronic health problems. This experience informs how she tailors support to each person's situation.

Roxsanna draws on several established approaches to guide sessions, including Trauma-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and client-centered methods. She mixes these methods to match a person’s goals rather than following one fixed path.

People who choose Roxsanna can expect a collaborative process that sets clear, achievable steps. She explains options in plain language and helps people practice new ways of coping. The aim is steady, practical progress toward greater balance and well-being.

How Roxsanna Uses Therapy Approaches Online

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people revisit and make sense of painful events in ways that reduce their day-to-day impact. It can support people who struggle with intrusive memories, strong reactions, or long-term changes after trauma.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical ways to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them drive every choice. It emphasizes clear values and small actions that build a more meaningful life despite ongoing stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to change mood and functioning. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating problems, and managing stress.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with the person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. Decisions about pace and techniques happen together rather than being imposed.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives by reducing travel time and allowing check-ins during a work break or between appointments. It can also let people use quieter surroundings, choose shorter check-ins, or avoid being on camera when that helps them engage more comfortably.
