About Rachelle

Rachelle Belott Filipiak is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who blends practical, relationship-focused methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, and sexual dysfunction concerns. She keeps sessions straightforward and goal-oriented so clients can build skills and feel steadier in daily life.

She earned a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Her background includes work in a domestic violence shelter for women, a college counseling center, a medium-security correctional facility for men, and outpatient mental health services. Those experiences shape how she listens and responds to different needs.

Rachelle uses an interpersonal and holistic approach. She pulls from Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy as fits the person and concern. Sessions focus on identifying obstacles and practicing small changes in thoughts and behavior to reduce distress.

She aims to help people gain tools they can use on their own. Therapy includes skill-building, talking through patterns, and practicing new ways of coping. The emphasis is on clear, usable steps rather than technical language.

Rachelle works from Wisconsin and brings five years of clinical experience. She supports people dealing with relationships, family matters, trauma, grief, mood concerns, addictions, body-image and eating struggles, parenting challenges, ADHD, and many related issues. Her approach is collaborative and practical.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It looks at connection, trust, and how people relate in close relationships to reduce isolation and improve communication. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) centers on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It offers concrete skills for anxiety, depression, and many daily stressors to help people feel more in control.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and preferences, then suggest which methods to try. Together they adjust the plan as progress is made so the work stays practical and relevant.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can make weekly check-ins simpler and help people practice skills between sessions.
