I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Wisconsin with 8 years of experience. Before becoming a license therapist, I worked for social services (CPS) for many years. I have worked with clients with a large range of concerns including depression, anxiety, ADHD and personality disorders. I focused a lot on helping adults and parents improve their interactions and relationship with their children and other family members. My education was geared towards Trauma Informed Care. Warm, inviting and understanding is my therapeutic approach. I tend to use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy.

Rachelle Belott Filipiak
Hello! I hold a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wisconsin-Stout. My skill-set has been molded working in a domestic violence shelter for women, college counseling center, medium-security correctional facility for men, and providing outpatient mental health services for individuals of all ages and struggles. I take a modern, holistic, and interpersonal approach incorporating elements from different theories depending on the person and the situation. Life is hard, and triggers are unavoidable. Change is unpleasant in the short term, but can improve the quality of our lives in the long-term. The goal of therapy is to identify the obstacles and learn ways to change our thoughts and behaviors resulting in less emotional distress. My end goal is to empower people to confidently resolve their struggles independent of mental health professionals in the future once they refine their skills. I offer a safe, confidential presence and am eager to offer support and guidance on your journey. You've already done the work to survive; now let's find a way to thrive!
