About Raelene
Raelene Faught is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 14 years of experience. She works with people dealing with anxiety, relationship struggles, parenting questions, trauma, and life transitions. Her focus includes codependency, grief, self-esteem, addictions, and a range of other concerns related to family and attachment.
She approaches therapy from a client-centered, humanistic stance. She treats each person as the expert on their life and collaborates on practical changes. In sessions she combines cognitive behavioral strategies with attachment-informed ideas to address patterns and reactions that cause ongoing stress.
Her work often involves looking at how past relationships shape current responses. She helps people notice unhelpful patterns, practice different ways of relating, and try new behaviors between sessions. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used to set manageable goals and build momentum.
She also pays attention to body-based responses and how strong emotions show up in daily life. That perspective can be useful for trauma, dissociation, and intense stress reactions. Raelene supports people working through abandonment, family-of-origin issues, and recovery from domestic violence.
Sessions tend to be practical and conversational. People leave with specific things to practice, not only ideas to think about. To begin, clients use the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How sessions work
Approaches used online and how they help
Raelene uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps when problems return in close relationships or codependent patterns keep repeating. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and trying concrete changes to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting plans together over time.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm the specific session formats available before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Talking through patterns, practicing behavioral experiments between sessions, and using motivational interviewing techniques translate well to remote meetings and can help people build different habits in everyday life.
