About Rachelle
Rachelle Anderson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Florida with 27 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also works with addiction, grief, career questions, bipolar and depression, ADHD, and LGBT issues.
She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help people notice patterns that cause distress. Sessions often focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing new behaviors, and building practical coping skills. Rachelle draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered techniques when those approaches fit the client's goals.
In sessions she helps people break big problems into smaller steps. Conversations move from describing what feels hard to trying specific changes and checking whether they helped. Therapy can include communication skills for relationship problems and focused strategies for stress or low mood.
Rachelle has worked with adults facing transitions such as divorce, career shifts, caregiving stress, adoption-related concerns, and loss. Her practice also addresses attachment and commitment issues, body image, substance use, and eating-related concerns. She encourages practical changes that fit daily life.
People meet to set concrete goals and track progress over time. The initial meeting clarifies priorities and how different approaches might be used. Clients who want a direct, structured way to change thinking and behavior often find this style useful.
How Rachelle uses CBT and ACT in online work
Rachelle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. CBT involves tracking thoughts, testing small behavior changes, and reviewing whether those changes reduce stress or improve mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to help people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck and to clarify personal values to guide actions. ACT often helps with anxiety, depression, and making choices during life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She discusses techniques with each person and chooses steps together based on goals and preferences. That collaborative planning helps match CBT, ACT, or client-centered listening to the issue at hand and to how a person prefers to work.
Confirm the current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, support shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use video or phone options when those formats suit their daily routine. The practical aim is to make therapy usable alongside work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
