Katelyn Elliott

Katelyn Elliott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and questions about life purpose. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not take international clients.

Katelyn takes a human-centered, Existential approach while also drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. She views each person as the expert on their own life and focuses on building a collaborative relationship. In practice this means talking through how daily choices, beliefs, and habits affect mood, relationships, and direction.

Her background includes work with substance use and co-occurring disorders, mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, and LGBTQ concerns. She uses practical tools and conversations to help people notice patterns and test new ways of coping. Clients can expect direct, grounded discussion about thoughts, behaviors, and motivations.

Katelyn also addresses parenting stress, grief, compassion fatigue, ADHD, panic, social anxiety, codependency, and communication problems. She integrates approaches such as CBT techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and motivational interviewing to strengthen commitment to change. The goal is to help people clarify what matters to them and take manageable steps toward that direction.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the site’s online process. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location. Confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, choice, and how people make sense of their lives. In sessions this looks like conversations about values, what matters now, and how choices shape direction. It can help when someone is questioning purpose after a life change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Online CBT often uses clear steps - identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and practicing different behaviors between sessions. This approach is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational style that helps people clarify their reasons for change. It supports commitment and small steps, especially for addictions or behaviors someone wants to adjust.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means checking in about what helps and adjusting plans as therapy progresses.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or using audio-only sessions when bandwidth is limited. These practical options can help people keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and everyday responsibilities.
