About Rachel
Rachel Black is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship troubles, grief, and parenting concerns. Rachel also supports people dealing with addiction, attention challenges, trauma and abuse, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Her approach blends several practical therapies. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships affect present patterns. She applies cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior strategies and mindfulness tools are used when people need skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Sessions are conversational and focused on concrete steps. She listens to what matters to each person and then suggests exercises, communication techniques, and coping skills to try between meetings. Work may include parenting-related problem solving, handling family-of-origin concerns, and addressing codependency or blended family stress.
Rachel has a long track record of helping people navigate life transitions such as career changes, aging concerns, chronic illness adjustments, and grief. She also addresses issues like hoarding, chronic pain overlap, and co-morbidity when these affect daily functioning.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Rachel uses attachment-based ideas to help people see how early relationship patterns affect current behavior. That work looks at patterns in how people connect, pull away, or react, and it can be useful for relationship stress and family-of-origin issues.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT is practical and often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Mindfulness skills and DBT techniques are introduced when someone needs strategies to manage strong emotions or reduce impulsive responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will collaborate with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their goals and daily life. That means trying things, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
