Rochelle Giovannini

Rochelle Giovannini is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Her practice also covers relationship strain, parenting concerns, motivation and self-esteem, and issues tied to addiction or trauma.

She uses straightforward conversation and active listening to help clients sort through what feels stuck. Rochelle treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps that can be tried between meetings.

Rochelle draws on several approaches to support change. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas guide how she attends to relationship patterns and a person’s experience in the room.

She also integrates mindfulness practices where helpful, to manage stress and attention. Many who come to her want help with career direction, coping with major life changes, parenting strain, or identifying purpose after a loss or transition. Language options include English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and she accepts international clients.

Rochelle’s practice works on realistic, manageable goals. She asks practical questions, suggests small experiments, and checks in about what’s working. To begin, prospective clients use the site matching process and schedule an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Rochelle uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people name what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT focuses on actions that reflect personal priorities rather than promising quick fixes. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation issues.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Rochelle discusses your goals and preferences and adjusts methods over time. She treats therapy as a collaborative effort and checks in about which techniques feel most useful for daily life.

Session formats are not listed explicitly in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Rochelle’s methods emphasize practical exercises and between-session tasks that can be worked on regardless of the session format chosen.
