About Johannes
Dr. Johannes (Jean) Roux is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) working in California. He focuses on practical support for parents and adults coping with stress, grief, relationship strain, addiction, and life transitions.
He speaks English and Afrikaans and brings two decades of clinical experience to sessions. Jean favors direct, easy-to-follow strategies. He uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused work to help people spot patterns, change unhelpful thoughts, and set clear goals.
Background and approach
Sessions mix conversation, skill-building, and short-term coaching exercises. He has worked in independent practice and hospital settings for more than 20 years. Jean holds a PhD in Clinical Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine and completed graduate studies at the University of San Francisco.
He also completed an executive leadership program at Stanford University and holds several coaching-related certifications. In typical sessions he helps parents manage stress, cope with compassion fatigue, and balance caregiving responsibilities alongside work and personal needs. He also supports people facing chronic illness, end-of-life concerns, or career and identity questions.
The focus is on practical next steps rather than long academic explanations. Teletherapy and a mix of coaching-style tools are core to his practice. He generally responds to messages a few times during his weekdays and asks for patience when schedules are busy.
New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling appointments.

How his approaches work online
Dr. Roux commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy to help people make changes. CBT focuses on spotting and testing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe life stories and separate themselves from problems so they can try new ways of living.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will talk with each person about goals, past attempts, and preferences, then recommend a mix of methods. The process is collaborative and may include short coaching tasks between sessions to build momentum.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or fitting supports into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and practical while matching a client's daily needs.
