About Rachelle
Rachelle Belott Filipiak is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings a practical, interpersonal approach to therapy. She focuses on helping people reduce distress and build skills to manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Rachelle writes plainly and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful from the start.
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 roles shaped how she listens and responds to people facing complex problems.
Rachelle blends several approaches to match each person's needs. She uses elements of attachment-based work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical skills, and emotionally focused ideas. In sessions she helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts, practice different behaviors, and improve how they relate to others.
She commonly addresses concerns such as trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, eating and body-image issues, parenting strains, ADHD, and workplace or career stress. Additional interests include adoption and foster care, attachment issues, chronic illness or pain, and communication or control issues.
Rachelle works in Wisconsin and offers services in English. She aims to help people develop tools so they can manage future challenges more confidently and with less reliance on mental health professionals.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current connections. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness, or patterns of push-pull in relationships by focusing on how they form and repair bonds. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people identify unhelpful thinking, try different behaviors, and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reorganizing strong emotions to improve relationships and self-understanding.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which techniques to try. That collaborative process means plans can change as needs become clearer.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to maintain continuity during work or travel. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, attachment-focused conversations, and emotion-focused interventions to an online setting so you can practice new skills between sessions.
