Rachel Fox, LMFT

Compassionate therapist focused on practical progress

About Rachel

Rachel Fox is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical help for people facing relationship troubles, trauma, depression, and major life changes.

Background and approach

Rachel speaks English and American Sign Language and aims to make therapy approachable and clear from the first meeting. Clients meet someone who listens without judgment and helps them shape the next steps.

Rachel believes people know their story and already carry strengths to build on. Sessions typically focus on concrete skills and small, manageable changes that make daily life easier.

Her work includes helping people recover after abuse or traumatic events and reduce symptoms of depression and social anxiety. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, codependency, divorce, and feelings of isolation or shame.

Rachel brings attention to both thoughts and bodily reactions when stress has a physical hold. Rachel uses practical methods such as cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts, narrative approaches to rewrite painful stories, and somatic techniques to calm the nervous system.

She helps clients set clear goals and track progress as part of treatment. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session once the initial steps are complete.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Rachel uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is useful for depression, social anxiety, and everyday struggles where small shifts in thinking lead to clearer choices. Narrative therapy is another tool she uses to look at the stories people tell about themselves and identify alternative, more helpful ways to understand those stories; this can ease guilt, shame, and relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She talks with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they test methods and adjust the plan based on what actually helps in day-to-day life, keeping the process collaborative and practical.

Online therapy here includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video lets people connect face to face when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to share brief updates, get quick guidance between appointments, or fit therapy into a busy day.
