Rachel Fox, LMFT

Rachel Fox is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are wrestling with relationship stress, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life transitions. Rachel speaks both English and American Sign Language. She frames clients as the experts on their own lives and aims to make the first step toward change feel doable. In sessions Rachel uses practical tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking and try small behavior changes. She also brings narrative and solution-focused ideas to the work, helping people reframe their story and set clear, achievable goals. Somatic and trauma-focused methods are used when addressing the bodily and memory-based impacts of trauma. Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She helps clients identify what matters most and build step-by-step plans to get there. The approach tends to be goal-oriented but adaptable to each person’s pace. Rachel has experience guiding people through communication problems, codependency, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, questions about sexuality, social anxiety, narcissism-related concerns, and post-traumatic stress. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and sessions are offered via multiple online formats.

How Rachel’s approaches work online

Rachel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is practical and works well for depression, anxiety, and relationship patterns. Narrative Therapy is also part of her work, which helps people rewrite how they tell their life story and focus on strengths and values in moments of change.

She aims to find the right mix of approaches together with each person. That means discussing goals, trying methods, and adjusting the plan based on what fits. The therapist and client decide collaboratively whether to emphasize thought work, storytelling, brief solution steps, or body-based techniques for trauma.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and longer sessions. Phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging work well for quick check-ins, short skill practice, or when someone needs flexibility during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and travel schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress.
