Rachelle Belott Filipiak , LPC

Rachelle Belott Filipiak is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with five years of clinical experience and a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Her practice grew from roles in a domestic violence shelter for women, a college counseling center, a medium-security correctional facility for men, and outpatient mental health services for individuals across the lifespan, giving her a broad base of experience with diverse needs and backgrounds.

Filipiak uses a modern, holistic, and interpersonal framework, adapting techniques from multiple therapeutic models to fit each person and situation. She integrates approaches such as attachment-based therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), EMDR, emotionally focused therapy (EFT), psychodynamic methods, mindfulness, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused work to address presenting concerns in a flexible, person-centered way.

Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, eating concerns, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career struggles, life transitions, and ADHD. She also attends to related topics such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, autism spectrum considerations, blended family dynamics, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress, codependency, communication and control issues, and commitment concerns.

The goal of her work is to identify obstacles and support changes in thoughts and behaviors that reduce emotional distress while helping people develop durable skills. Filipiak aims to empower individuals to manage future challenges independently of mental health professionals. She offers a calm, supportive, and personal presence and is ready to provide guidance for those moving from survival toward a fuller sense of well-being.

Could Remote Counseling Fit Your Needs?

Many people consider remote counseling to address common concerns and find it effective for issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. For these types of concerns, online therapy can offer comparable effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions while fitting more easily into daily life.

One major benefit of remote care is flexibility. Individuals can connect with licensed professionals in the format that suits them best - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it simpler to attend sessions around work, family, and other commitments.

Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if a different fit is desired. For many people, online therapy offers a practical, adaptable way to access professional support while maintaining continuity of care.
