About Rachel

Rachel Black is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor (FL LMHC MH18535) who brings 20 years of experience to supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, mood concerns, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She emphasizes practical coping strategies alongside emotional exploration, helping clients untangle patterns that contribute to low self-esteem, addictive behaviors, and difficulties with intimacy and family dynamics. Her work also addresses a wide range of related issues including parenting challenges, sleep and eating problems, career transitions, chronic illness, and struggles with shame or codependency.

Her style blends evidence-based techniques with a warm, client-centered stance that values each person’s goals and strengths. Rachel often uses cognitive behavioral strategies to shift unhelpful thinking, attachment-based ideas to repair relational wounds, and mindfulness or DBT-informed skills for distress tolerance and emotion regulation.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process, offering coaching-oriented support when clients want concrete tools for change. Available to adults in Florida who prefer flexible formats, Rachel offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Prospective clients who are ready to begin can follow a simple sign-up and scheduling process to match with her according to availability.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Rachel often combines cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based work to address both symptoms and relational patterns. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and difficulties with attention or motivation. Attachment-based therapy explores how early relationship experiences shape current connections, helping clients improve trust, communication, and intimacy across relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Rachel works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and practical needs, and she adjusts methods as insight grows so therapy stays aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online sessions offer flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain continuity during life transitions. These options allow licensed professionals to provide ongoing skills coaching, reflective work, and crisis coping strategies without requiring travel, supporting consistent progress in real-world contexts.
