About Rachel
Rachel DiPippo is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, and codependency. She is Rachel DiPippo, LMHC, and brings 22 years of clinical experience in Rhode Island. Her manner is collaborative and straightforward so people can talk about what matters most.
Rachel asks clients what they want to change and sets goals together. Sessions focus on understanding the patterns that drive unwanted behavior and on building practical skills to respond differently. Conversations are direct, compassionate, and focused on what the client needs right now.
Rachel uses cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She draws on client-centered methods to follow the client’s pace and priorities. Mindfulness tools are offered to help with stress and emotional regulation.
Motivational interviewing techniques are used when change feels hard or uncertain. Narrative approaches help people reframe their stories and gain perspective on long-standing problems. Rachel adapts methods to each person rather than following a single script.
Her work includes supporting people with trauma, grief, eating and body image concerns, anger, bipolar mood issues, ADHD, and career or life transitions. She aims to create a warm, respectful space where clients can try new ways of coping and build lasting change.
Approaches you can try in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead. It helps people clarify values, set goals, and feel heard while they try out changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by offering concrete tools to practice.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as needs change over time.
