Her approach draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which emphasizes mindfulness and practical skills for managing strong emotions.

Rochelle has worked with many common concerns including anxiety, depression, bipolar mood issues, panic, and stress. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship and family difficulties, eating problems, anger, and career stress. Communication problems, loneliness, guilt and shame, and struggles with self-esteem and self-love are also areas she addresses.
Her style is patient and respectful. She treats therapy as a partnership and focuses on practical steps that fit each person's life. Rochelle aims to help clients leave sessions with tools they can use between meetings.
She checks messages during workdays and generally replies the same day, or within 24 hours on other days. Morning and afternoon live appointments are available three days per week. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.
How therapy approaches translate to online support
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with small, practical experiments. It helps with anxiety, mood problems, panic, and situations where unhelpful thinking keeps someone stuck. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes mindfulness and building a toolbox of emotion regulation and interpersonal skills to reduce chronic distress and improve relationships. Mindfulness Therapy centers attention training and present-moment noticing to reduce reactivity and improve focus and mood.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, daily routines, and what feels most workable. Together they pick methods and tools to try, then adjust those choices as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session options before booking, since formats were not fully specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules by avoiding travel and allowing sessions during morning or afternoon windows. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a quick review is more helpful than a full session. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT exercises for remote sessions so people leave with concrete homework and simple skills to practice between meetings.
