Rachel DiPippo , LMHC

Rachel DiPippo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and 22 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families. She has supported people facing trauma, substance use struggles, negative self-talk, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, relationship and marital difficulties, anger, eating disorders, parenting challenges, ADHD, and many other life stressors.

Her approach is collaborative and tailored to each person’s needs and goals. She draws on a range of therapeutic methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered techniques, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, trauma-focused practices, and dialectical behavioral strategies. These tools are used to help clients identify the patterns driving unwanted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and to build practical skills for change.

Rachel sees her role as a partner in the healing process, offering encouragement and motivation while inviting clients to explore what has been holding them back. In a compassionate, strengths-focused manner she helps people develop the coping skills and emotional awareness they need to move toward greater well-being. She aims to create an environment where clients can openly examine their experience and work toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and reflects so clients can explore their own values, goals, and sense of identity. This approach is helpful for improving self-esteem, attachment concerns, and relationship patterns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with coping or addiction by teaching practical skills for managing symptoms and making changes.

Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple awareness and grounding practices to help people regulate emotions, reduce reactivity, and stay present when facing stress, grief, or trauma-related responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rachel works collaboratively with each person to determine which strategies best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access therapy from home or other convenient locations while working with experienced therapists.
