About Rachelle

Rachelle Belott Filipiak blends interpersonal and evidence-based methods to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and related concerns. She uses a flexible, person-centered stance that draws on cognitive and emotion-focused tools so treatment matches each client's needs.

Background and approach

Rachelle earned a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wisconsin-Stout and brings five years of clinical experience across diverse settings including a domestic violence shelter for women, a college counseling center, a medium-security correctional facility for men, and outpatient mental health services for clients of all ages.

Her practice emphasizes helping clients identify obstacles, shift patterns of thinking and behavior, and build practical skills for managing emotional distress. Rachelle aims to foster independence by teaching strategies that reduce reliance on professionals once clients feel equipped to handle challenges on their own.

She holds an LPC (WI LPC 8248-125) and offers support for a wide range of issues such as relationship and family concerns, grief, addictions, eating and body image struggles, parenting, and career or life transitions. Rachelle works in English and accepts international clients, bringing a modern, holistic, and interpersonal approach to online therapy.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Rachelle integrates attachment-based and cognitive behavioral approaches to shape online work that is practical and relational. Attachment-based therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns affect emotions and behavior, making it useful for those coping with attachment issues, abandonment concerns, or relationship strain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured exercises and skills practice, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related difficulties, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process; Rachelle partners with clients to explore which methods best match their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns. Together they may blend elements from different models so therapy stays responsive and goal-oriented, with the therapist guiding skill-building and problem-solving while clients contribute priorities and feedback.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase accessibility and flexibility. These options let clients fit therapeutic work into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and practice skills between sessions using the communication mode that feels most comfortable. Licensed professionals can use these formats to maintain consistent care while tailoring pace and techniques to each individual's needs.
