About Dr. Roxanne Dongallo
Hi, I'm Dr. Roxanne Dongallo.
I became a psychiatrist because I've always been drawn to understanding people's stories and experiences. Over the years, I've learned that sometimes what helps most is having someone who will listen without judgment and walk alongside you during difficult times.
In my practice, I aim to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself. I believe mental health care is not just about treating symptoms, it's about understanding the person behind them and working together toward meaningful change.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time finding moments to slow down and recharge.
If you're considering reaching out, I hope you know you don't have to have everything figured out. Wherever you are in your journey, I'm here to listen and support you.
My Approach to Psychiatric Care
I believe therapy is a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes we all need someone to listen, understand, and help us make sense of what we're going through.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in genuine curiosity about your experiences. Rather than telling you what to do, I work alongside you to understand your challenges, recognize your strengths, and identify paths forward that feel right for you.
Whether this is your first time in therapy or you're returning after a difficult experience, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable moving at your own pace. Together, we can explore what matters most to you and work toward meaningful change that feels authentic and sustainable.
