Roxie Wurtz, LMSW is a warm, grounded, and direct therapist who specializes in helping people feel less overwhelmed and more like themselves again. Whether you’re navigating academic pressure, caregiver burnout, chronic illness, or the internal noise of anxiety and self-doubt, Roxie brings clarity and compassion to each session supporting clients of all ages through life’s hardest (and most transformative) moments.

Clients often say Roxie has a gift for validation, honest reflection, and helping them feel deeply seen. As a trauma-informed, identity-affirming therapist, Roxie is especially passionate about working with those with chronic illness and ongoing pain, medical complexities, all ages with special expertise in 65+ adults,  adolescents, and adults in life transitions. Roxie brings decades of life experience, parenthood, and second-career insight to the therapy room, as well as personal understanding of chronic illness and systems like adoption and foster care.

“Therapy is like riding a rollercoaster in a grounded body. You still feel all the twists and turns, but you’re no longer flung around by them. I’m here to help you hold steady as you explore your own unique path.”

Roxie believes therapy should feel like a partnership rooted in realness. Sessions are active, honest, and focused on your goals. You can expect a balance of reflection, insight, and coaching always tailored to your capacity and needs.

Outside the office, Roxie finds grounding in gardening, parenting, cooking new meals, spending time with her chickens and dogs, and advocating for equity in the community.
