About Dixie
Dixie Eppolito is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She draws on ten years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and trauma. Dixie aims to create a direct and compassionate space where people can begin to feel steadier and more hopeful.
She works from approaches that focus on relationships and practical skills. That means paying attention to how past bonds affect current feelings, listening without judgment, and teaching tools that change unhelpful patterns.
How Dixie works
Sessions often mix talking, practical exercises, and skill-building so people can try new ways of coping between meetings. Dixie has significant experience supporting people with compassion fatigue and complex trauma. She also helps with mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder, process and substance addictions, obsessive or compulsive behaviors, and challenges like sleep or eating difficulties.
Career stress, relationship strain, and intimacy issues are common topics she addresses. Her work is collaborative. Dixie treats the person rather than the problem, tailoring each plan to individual needs and life circumstances.
She draws on attachment-based, client-centered, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, and Jungian ideas as tools to guide the process. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people inside and outside the U.S. Dixie supports people who want practical help managing emotions, improving relationships with themselves and others, and making meaningful life changes.

Online support options
How attachment and skills-based approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current feelings and reactions; online sessions use conversation and reflective exercises to help people notice relationship patterns and try new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and accepting the person where they are; this approach helps people feel heard and develop their own solutions through consistent, nondirective support. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises and homework, which translates well to video or messaging where worksheets and tracking tools can be shared.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adapt methods based on goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and shifting course when needed so the plan fits real life.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared documents, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins or real-time reflection, and text-based messaging works for people who prefer writing or need ongoing reinforcement between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
