Rachelle Belott Filipiak

Rachelle Belott Filipiak is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who blends several practical therapy styles to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, and other life changes. She uses clear, goal-minded work to help people reduce emotional distress and build stronger coping skills. Rachelle names narcissism among her areas of focus and addresses related concerns within broader issues like attachment and communication.

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 care. Those settings shaped her skill set and informed how she meets people where they are.

Rachelle takes a modern, holistic, and interpersonal approach. That means she pulls practical tools from different methods to fit each person’s needs. Sessions often focus on identifying obstacles, changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and practicing new ways of relating to others.

Her aim is to help people learn skills they can use long after therapy ends. She emphasizes collaboration and clear goals so clients gain confidence in handling future challenges. Rachelle works to create a steady, nonjudgmental space for people to explore difficult topics and decide their next steps.

She practices in Wisconsin and brings five years of professional experience to her work. English is used for sessions, and she is open to working with clients outside the United States through the intake process.

How her approaches guide online work

Rachelle uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That work helps when people struggle with trust, closeness, or recurring relationship conflicts. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Rachelle works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts the plan so the work stays useful and relevant.

The biography does not list which online formats are offered, so confirm available session types before booking. Many people find online options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time from appointments. Licensed professionals can also adjust pacing, homework, and skill practice so therapy fits into everyday life.
