Raquel “Rocky” McCranie is a bilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor with 5+ years of experience helping adults (18+) and couples create healthier, more balanced lives — through real conversations, not clinical formulas.
She earned her Bachelor's Degree in General Psychology with a minor in Communications before completing her Master's Degree in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling at the University of South Florida.
Her background spans behavioral health, addiction recovery, individual counseling, relationship support, and trauma. She draws from a wide range of approaches — tailored to what each person actually needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Being a mother and part of a blended family herself, Rocky understands the complexities of navigating your own identity within relationship dynamics. She has a deep passion for horses and has gained experience with equine-assisted approaches through partnerships — something she finds profoundly meaningful as a complement to traditional therapy.
Her goal is simple: to create a space where you actually feel heard — not managed, not analyzed, not rushed — just genuinely understood.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
