About Dixie
Dixie Eppolito is a licensed mental health counselor who centers the therapeutic relationship and practical skills in her work. She draws on ten years of experience to help people manage anger, stress, anxiety, addictions, and trauma. Dixie keeps language simple and focuses on clear steps people can try between sessions.
Her approach begins by listening to each person’s story and noticing strengths they already have. She uses techniques that help people name strong feelings, test unhelpful thoughts, and practice healthier behaviors.
Background and approach
Sessions often include short exercises, skill practice, and straightforward problem-solving that fit into daily life. Dixie has supported people dealing with compassion fatigue, grief, mood disorders, and difficulties with sleep, eating, and self-esteem. She also works with concerns such as ADHD, obsessions and compulsions, process addictions, and post-traumatic stress.
Her work includes attention to how stress shows up in body and behavior, and to patterns that keep problems stuck. People can expect a calm, respectful tone and a focus on practical change. Dixie values collaboration and helps set clear, manageable goals together.
She offers options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Dixie holds a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, often shortened to LMHC. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients who can connect by the offered online formats.

Therapeutic approaches for online anger and stress work
Dixie uses client-centered therapy to create a listening space where the person leading their story is treated with respect and curiosity. This approach focuses on understanding the person’s goals and building on strengths rather than imposing solutions.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers straightforward tools to test unhelpful thoughts and to practice new behaviors that reduce anger, anxiety, or compulsive patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dixie will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person’s needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. The process is collaborative and paced to what feels doable.
Online formats give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face discussion and skill practice. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when movement or travel is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, coaching moments, or ongoing tracking of skills between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work and family demands while using techniques that address anger, stress, and related concerns.
