About Raechelle

Raechelle Gaffney is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) licensed in Texas and Florida with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, family concerns, parenting, career questions, grief, and self-esteem issues. Raechelle also focuses on family of origin issues and related challenges that come from early family patterns.

Her style is straightforward and practical. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. She draws on emotionally focused and narrative approaches to help people clarify patterns and reframe old stories about themselves.

Raechelle’s background includes work in hospital case management and community settings where she helped people access social and medical services. That experience informs an approach that pays attention to daily life demands and practical supports as well as emotional patterns.

In sessions she talks through current problems, identifies small changes to try, and reviews what works. She can help with caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, money concerns, and end-of-life or hospice related topics alongside parenting and career transitions.

Raechelle uses techniques from several therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. She works in English and practices in Texas. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Raechelle integrates evidence-based approaches online

Raechelle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, panic attacks, and problems with motivation or routines.

She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice patterns in close relationships and respond differently to emotional cues. EFT can help with attachment issues, family conflict, and improving how people express needs.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Raechelle reviews your goals and preferences and suggests methods to try. Clients and therapist check progress and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography did not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and provide options for people with limited mobility or caregiving duties. Licensed professionals will discuss scheduling, session length, and practical details during the matching and intake steps.
