About Rachelle

Rachelle Belott Filipiak is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, eating concerns, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

Her background includes work in a domestic violence shelter for women, a college counseling center, a medium-security correctional facility for men, and outpatient services for people across age groups. Those settings shaped a practical approach to common problems and to strong reactions like anger and resentment.

Rachelle blends several approaches rather than using a single method. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships and on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. Dialectical behavior therapy tools are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills are needed.

In session she focuses on identifying the obstacles that keep someone stuck and on learning concrete skills to change thoughts and behaviors. She aims to help people manage strong feelings and reduce emotional distress through clear strategies and practice.

Her stated goal is to help clients gain confidence in handling problems without ongoing reliance on mental health professionals. To begin, she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. Online work can identify those patterns and practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to reduce distress. It uses structured exercises and homework that translate well to remote sessions and daily life.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. She will discuss your goals and preferences and adapt methods as you go. That means balancing relational focus, practical thought work, and skills for managing strong emotions based on what helps you most.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let them practice skills in real-life settings between meetings. Talk with her about how you want to structure sessions and which tools will work best for your situation.
