About Rachelle
Rachelle Belott Filipiak is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, and related challenges listed in her profile. She also addresses issues such as grief, eating concerns, parenting strains, anger, self-esteem, career changes, and ADHD.
Rachelle trained at the University of Wisconsin-Stout where she earned a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. 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 settings. Those roles shaped how she meets people coming from different life situations.
Her practice draws on several approaches. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. She applies cognitive behavioral tools to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. She also uses client-centered listening, dialectical behavior skills, and emotionally-focused techniques when they fit a person’s needs.
In sessions she focuses on identifying obstacles and testing new ways of thinking and acting that reduce emotional distress. She explains steps clearly and practices skills with clients so they can use them after therapy ends. Rachelle aims to support people learning to manage problems more independently over time.
She works in English and accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling details with the provider.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how past and current relationships affect feelings and behavior. Online sessions can be used to talk through attachment patterns and practice new interaction skills in real time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors. In online sessions this often means setting small exercises, reviewing progress, and trying coping strategies between meetings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name strong emotions and gently shift how they relate to others; it can be used online to reflect on relationship patterns and rehearse new responses. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your goals, what has or hasn’t helped before, and how you prefer to work. Together you’ll decide which combination of methods fits your needs and adjust the plan as you go. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, require less travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats also reduce the need to be on camera or use high bandwidth, which can help when schedules or connection quality vary. Licensed professionals and therapists use these practical choices to make it easier to practice skills and continue progress between sessions.Areas of expertise
