About Rachel
Rachel DiPippo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Rhode Island with 22 years of experience. She works with adults coping with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship strains, parenting pressures, trauma and grief. Rachel also addresses issues such as ADHD, anger, low self-esteem, and career stress.
Rachel uses straightforward conversation to help people identify what keeps them stuck. She and the client set goals together and pick practical steps to try between sessions. Methods she draws on include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative ideas.
Sessions focus on what a person wants to change now. Rachel will listen for patterns in relationships, parenting, and daily routines. She helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of responding to stressful situations.
When parenting or family tensions are the main issue, she helps an individual examine roles, boundaries, and communication habits. For those facing addiction or grief, she works on concrete coping skills and motivation to make different choices.
Her approach is collaborative and practical. Rachel aims to help clients build simple tools they can use between meetings. She asks about real-life constraints so plans fit a person's day-to-day responsibilities and goals.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's perspective. It aims to make space for a person to describe real-life struggles and priorities, which can help with relationship and parenting stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, then tests small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills to manage reactivity and stress and can support coping with grief or addiction.Rachel treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to identify what methods make the most sense for their goals and daily life. Together they set short-term aims and practical steps to try between sessions, then adjust the approach as needed.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals use these formats to focus work on skills practice, behavior experiments, communication coaching, and planning next steps that fit into everyday routines.
