About Rachelle
Rachelle Belott Filipiak is a Licensed Professional Counselor with five years of clinical experience. She uses a mix of interpersonal and evidence-informed methods to help people handle stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. Rachelle writes plainly and meets clients where they are, focusing on practical steps that ease daily struggles and improve relationships.
She draws on work done in a domestic violence shelter, a college counseling center, a medium-security correctional facility, and outpatient settings. That range shaped a flexible approach that adapts to each person's needs. Rachelle often combines attachment-based thinking, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered skills in simple, concrete ways.
In sessions she helps people identify obstacles and learn new responses to old patterns. That can mean practicing emotion regulation, changing unhelpful thoughts, or repairing connection with important people. She aims to give tools clients can use on their own once those skills feel reliable.
Rachelle also lists adoption and foster care among her additional focus areas and will address concerns related to attachment, abandonment, and blended family dynamics as they arise. She supports people dealing with trauma, grief, addictions, eating concerns, ADHD, and body image issues.
Rachelle holds a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wisconsin-Stout and is licensed as an LPC in Wisconsin. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches guide online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds and feelings. In brief work it helps people notice patterns in closeness, worry about abandonment, and practices new ways to connect with others.Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and lets the therapist follow what matters most to them. That approach supports people who need a listening space to sort feelings, make choices, and find their own answers.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete skills to change unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral experiments that reduce anxiety and lift mood.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively to identify goals and try methods that match those goals and a client's personality. Adjustments are made as progress and preferences become clearer.
The practical value of online work is fitting sessions into everyday life. Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Many people appreciate being able to schedule appointments around work or school, avoid travel time, or choose a quieter time of day for focused work. Online sessions can allow regular check-ins and steady skill practice even when life is busy.
