About Rochelle
Rochelle McGhee is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 18 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood concerns, relationship and family challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues like guilt and shame. Rochelle also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career stress, eating concerns, anger, and panic-related problems.
Her work combines practical skill-building with focused conversation. She often uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy principles alongside cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help with attention and emotional regulation.
Rochelle describes a steady, patient style that keeps attention on clear goals. She helps people build a toolbox of coping skills for difficult moments and interpersonal conflicts. Sessions include practical exercises, noticing patterns, and setting small, doable steps between meetings.
She brings experience across many common life problems and emphasizes collaboration in planning work together. Communication and forgiveness issues are named areas of focus, along with loneliness, self-esteem, and self-love struggles. The approach aims to make daily life more manageable by developing concrete skills.
For someone carrying guilt or shame, Rochelle offers ways to examine those feelings, practice new responses, and reduce intense reactivity. People who want brief, skills-based work alongside reflective conversation may find her style a fit.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. In brief online work this looks like learning short exercises to manage strong feelings and practicing interpersonal techniques during sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured tasks and homework. Online sessions can review thought records, set small experiments, and follow up on between-session steps.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Rochelle will discuss goals and try methods that fit the client's needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process where techniques are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
