About Katelyn
Katelyn Elliott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, and codependency among other issues. Katelyn supports clients who are navigating identity questions, parenting strain, grief, and life changes.
Her work draws on Existential Therapy ideas and a humanistic stance. She treats each person as the expert on their life and builds a collaborative relationship. Sessions focus on exploring how someone exists in the world and what gives their life meaning.
Katelyn also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to address concrete problems. Those tools help with coping skills, managing mood and anxiety, and addressing substance use or co-occurring concerns. She blends approaches to match what a person needs in the moment.
In practical terms she helps people notice patterns, test small behavior changes, and clarify values. Conversations often include looking at how past experiences shape current choices. The aim is to help people find more clarity and purpose, not to promise a particular outcome.
Her background includes a master’s degree from Indiana University of Pennsylvania earned in 2012 and clinical work with substance use, trauma, mood disorders, and LGBTQ concerns. Sessions are held in English and she does not accept international clients.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Existential Therapy focuses on questions of meaning, choice, and personal values. In online sessions this looks like conversations that help someone clarify what matters to them and how they want to live. It can be useful for grief, life changes, identity concerns, and questions about purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tests changes in small steps. Online use of CBT often includes setting short between-session tasks, tracking patterns, and practicing new skills to reduce anxiety or manage mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change and find internal reasons to move forward. It pairs well with work around substance use, co-occurring conditions, and building actionable goals. Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as priorities change. Confirm the session formats available before booking since the biography does not list specific online or in-person formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so appointments can occur around work or family demands.Areas of focus
