About Rachel

Rachel Marmor is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on practical, person-centered therapy. She draws on methods that help people manage anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, and stress. Rachel keeps sessions straightforward and aimed at clear goals you can use between appointments.

She works from Florida and offers services in English. With 12 years in the mental health field, Rachel has experience with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, parenting, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and women's issues.

Background and approach

She approaches each person as an individual and avoids a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions typically start by identifying short-term steps and longer-term goals, then choosing techniques that fit the person’s needs. Rachel integrates practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to reduce distress and change unhelpful thought patterns.

She also uses emotion-focused ideas and elements from the Gottman Method when addressing relationship and intimacy-related difficulties. Motivational interviewing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy are part of her toolkit when people need help with behavior change and values-based choices. In sessions she aims to be empathetic, nonjudgmental, and straightforward.

People can expect a collaborative process where therapist and client decide what will help most. Rachel supports coping with life changes, grief, and career or identity concerns while tailoring the approach to individual strengths. For those interested in remote options, Rachel offers multiple online formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches suited to remote care

Rachel often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-based, which translates well to remote sessions when working on specific goals like anxiety or sleep problems.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small actions toward what matters to them. ACT focuses on accepting difficult feelings while committing to meaningful steps, and it can be helpful for stress, depression, and addictive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and she treats it as a collaboration. Together the therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences to decide which methods to try first and when to adapt or combine approaches.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, so people can pick what fits their life. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, school, or parenting responsibilities and to continue progress when travel or relocation occurs. Licensed professionals can use these formats to share worksheets, guide mindfulness exercises, and follow up on homework between sessions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
