About Rachelle

Rachelle Anderson is a Florida licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 27 years of experience supporting adults through major life hurdles. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, parenting concerns, and transitions such as career changes or moves. Rachelle also works with people facing grief, addictions, mood concerns, and ADHD-related struggles.

Her approach blends practical, evidence-informed methods that help people make changes they can use day to day. Sessions often involve clear strategies for managing overwhelming thoughts and feelings, and skills for improving communication and connection. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy when appropriate.

Rachelle pays attention to the story behind problems like abandonment, attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care issues, and body image concerns. She also addresses caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and intimacy-related struggles, and substance and eating problems. The goal is to help people build coping tools and better routines.

Many clients come with relationship stresses or career pressure, or the sense of being stuck after college or a big life change. Rachelle treats these kinds of concerns in straightforward, practical ways. She works with adults who live in Florida and conducts therapy in English.

To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location.

How Rachelle uses common approaches in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them, and then commit to small actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and feeling uncertain about next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often helps with stress, panic, and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotional responses in relationships and improving how people connect and communicate with each other.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs and then try approaches that fit. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods to use and can adjust them over time based on progress and feedback.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow someone to share what they are dealing with from their usual surroundings and then practice new skills between sessions.
