Katelyn Elliott

Katelyn Elliott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania who focuses on women's issues among other concerns. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem, depression, and identity or LGBT questions. Katelyn aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what feels hard and start making changes that matter.

Katelyn received a master’s degree from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 2012 and has 13 years of clinical experience. She has spent much of her career supporting people with substance use and co-occurring disorders, mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, and stress management. Her background gives her familiarity with complex and intersecting concerns like codependency, communication problems, and compassion fatigue.

Her counseling style draws on Existential Therapy and a humanistic outlook that treats the client as the expert in their life. She focuses on helping people explore personal experience, life meaning, and how they relate to the world around them. This work often involves looking for what matters most and building small changes that fit the client’s goals.

Katelyn also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing techniques when helpful. These approaches are used to identify unhelpful thinking and to support motivation for change in practical ways.

In sessions she aims to be present, compassionate, and direct. People who want to talk through life transitions, grief, intimacy issues, parenting stress, or struggles with attention and mood may find a steady, thoughtful partner in her.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Katelyn uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is practical for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Existential Therapy is part of her core perspective and helps people explore meaning, life choices, and how they want to live. Motivational Interviewing supports readiness for change and can be useful for addictions or when someone feels stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s needs, goals, and values. That means sessions may include a mix of reflective conversations about meaning and targeted exercises to build coping skills and motivation.

The practical benefits of online therapy can make regular work easier to fit into busy lives. Confirm the current session options before booking to learn which formats are available. Many people appreciate being able to schedule appointments around work, school, or caregiving, and the session time can be used for focused skill practice, check-ins, or deeper reflective work depending on the goal.
