Rochelle McGhee

Rochelle McGhee is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who helps people feeling stuck, isolated, or overwhelmed find clearer footing. She meets people where they are and focuses on small, practical steps to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve everyday relationships.

Rochelle works in a respectful, patient style and treats therapy as a partnership. She listens for your priorities and then helps you build skills to reach them. Sessions emphasize mindfulness, emotion regulation, and clearer communication so problems feel more manageable.

Her background includes a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and 18 years of counseling experience in Illinois. Rochelle uses elements from several approaches to match what a person needs at the time rather than relying on a single method.

Common concerns she supports include depression, anxiety, bipolar mood concerns, panic attacks, grief, and patterns that leave people feeling empty or isolated. She also helps people navigate relationship conflict, family stress, parenting challenges, career strain, and recovery from trauma and abuse.

In the room, the focus is on building a toolbox you can use outside sessions. That can mean practicing mindfulness skills, learning new ways to speak up, or setting small steps toward a goal. Rochelle aims to help people feel heard, respected, and more able to move forward.

How Rochelle’s approaches translate to online work

Rochelle blends cognitive and mindfulness practices to help people change unhelpful thoughts and manage strong feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions to create concrete steps that reduce anxiety and depressive patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings mindfulness, distress-tolerance, and emotion-regulation skills to bear when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rochelle treats therapy as a collaboration and will discuss which techniques fit a person’s goals, preferences, and needs. Together you decide what to try first and adjust as progress is made.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports practicing skills in real-life settings and using digital tools for worksheets and mindfulness practice when that is helpful.
