About Rachel
Rachel Fox is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Texas with nine years of professional experience. She focuses on practical support for people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes. Rachel aims to make the first steps toward change feel doable and clear.
She views clients as experts in their own lives and builds on existing strengths. In sessions she uses straightforward conversation, listening, and gentle challenges to help people identify patterns that cause pain.
Background and approach
She also brings somatic-informed practices to help people notice how stress shows up in the body. Rachel combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques with narrative and solution-focused methods. That mix helps clients change unhelpful thoughts, reframe personal stories, and set small, achievable goals.
The work is oriented toward real-life shifts rather than abstract theory. Common topics she addresses include codependency, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and navigating separation or divorce. She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, social anxiety, narcissistic dynamics, questions about sexuality, and post-traumatic stress.
Sessions are offered in English and American Sign Language. Rachel practices in Texas and holds the following licenses: OR LMFT T2739 and TX LMFT 202719. Her approach is practical, respectful, and paced to the client’s needs.
Online approaches that combine body awareness and practical steps
Rachel blends Somatic Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy in online work. Somatic Therapy focuses on how stress and trauma appear in the body and uses simple attention to breath, posture, and physical sensations to reduce overwhelm. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors, helping people challenge unhelpful thinking and try small behavioral changes to feel better. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories and rewrite how they see their past and identity.Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Rachel will work with each person to choose which approaches fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they review what helps, adjust the plan, and try different tools until something clicks.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people see nonverbal clues and try somatic exercises together. Phone can be lower bandwidth and easier when being on camera is difficult. Chat and text support quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or ongoing notes between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, and daily life.
