About Rochelle
Rochelle Giovannini is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Rochelle speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese and works with people who want steady, down-to-earth help.
Rochelle listens first and asks clear questions to understand what matters most to each person. She helps people notice patterns, try new coping skills, and set small, realistic goals.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be straightforward and collaborative rather than jargon-filled. Her work draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to address day-to-day symptoms. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships affect mood and behavior.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is part of her toolbox for managing unwanted thoughts and building a values-driven life. Rochelle supports people dealing with relationship struggles, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, addictions, and career pressures. She also works with those facing caregiving strain, postpartum challenges, grief, and multicultural issues.
Clients who want honest feedback and practical strategies often find her approach useful. People start by describing their immediate concerns and goals. Rochelle then outlines simple steps to help – short exercises between sessions, tracking small changes, and practicing new ways of responding.
Her aim is to help people build skills they can use outside of sessions and feel more able to handle life's ups and downs.
Therapy approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with big life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect feelings and behavior, helping with intimacy issues, communication problems, and caregiving stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rochelle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. She adapts tools and exercises so they match what the person wants to change and how they prefer to work, whether that means short skills practice or deeper relationship-focused exploration.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy schedule or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easy to check in between appointments or get brief support when needed. These options help people keep therapy consistent while fitting it into work, family, or travel routines.
