About Rochelle
Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 18 years of experience. Rochelle McGhee helps people manage stress, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma, eating issues, parenting strain, and career problems. She uses cognitive and behavioral methods including Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques.
Rochelle begins by clarifying what the person wants to change and what has already helped. Sessions focus on practical skills and short-term strategies alongside deeper work when needed. She emphasizes mindfulness and emotion-regulation skills drawn from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to reduce intense reactions and increase moment-to-moment awareness.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and test different ways of responding. Motivational interviewing supports people who feel stuck or uncertain about change. Solution-focused methods help identify small, concrete steps a person can take between sessions.
Rochelle describes her style as patient and direct. She keeps sessions goal-oriented while attending to respect and collaboration. Communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation, and self-esteem concerns are common topics she addresses alongside panic attacks and bipolar and depressive symptoms.
Practical arrangements are handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and based in Illinois. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.

How her approaches are used in online sessions
DBT focuses on learning mindfulness and emotion-regulation skills to reduce intense reactions and improve relationships. In online sessions this looks like practicing short exercises, reviewing skill use between meetings, and building a toolbox for distress tolerance.CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Online work often includes reviewing thoughts, setting small behavioral experiments, and tracking progress between appointments. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills and brief practices to calm the mind and notice patterns of thinking and feeling.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rochelle will collaborate to find what fits a person’s needs and goals, and she adjusts methods as progress and preferences become clearer.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings into a weekday schedule, shorter check-ins when needed, and doing skill practice between meetings without extra travel. These features can make it easier to maintain consistent work on stress, mood, and relationship goals.
