About Rochelle
Rochelle Giovannini is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 25 years of experience based in Florida. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps that fit everyday life. Rochelle speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese and works with clients on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, parenting, and coping with life changes.
Rochelle uses plain, conversational talk and active listening to help people feel heard.
Background and approach
She treats each person as the expert on their own life and helps them notice strengths they already have. Sessions emphasize clear goals and doable strategies rather than long lectures or jargon. Her background includes work on mood disorders, trauma and abuse, postpartum depression, addiction, and compassion fatigue.
She also supports people facing caregiver stress, medical challenges like cancer, and major life transitions such as divorce or career change. This range of experience helps her tailor sessions to practical, real-world problems. Rochelle blends evidence-based approaches with relationship-focused work.
She draws on acceptance and commitment methods, attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioral tools, and mindfulness practices to shape a plan that fits each client. Motivational interviewing and client-centered skills are also part of how she helps people set and reach goals. People who choose Rochelle often want straightforward help building coping skills, improving communication, or managing mood and anxiety.
She guides goal setting, practices skills in session, and checks in on progress over time.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to values-based action. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and communication styles, helping with intimacy issues and relationship patterns.Rochelle combines these approaches with client-centered listening to shape a plan together. She will work collaboratively to figure out which mix of strategies fits a person’s needs and goals. That means trying tools, checking what feels helpful, and adjusting the approach as progress is tracked.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging offer flexibility for brief reflections, homework check-ins, or scheduling around a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, and travel demands while keeping the focus on practical progress.
