Katy Schoen, LPC

Katy Schoen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in West Virginia with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and issues like self-esteem and compassion fatigue. She also addresses codependency and related concerns such as attachment and communication problems.

She uses clear, down-to-earth conversation to help people notice what’s getting in the way of their goals. Sessions look at real-life patterns - people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing sense of self in relationships - and practical steps to change them. She emphasizes strengths and helps clients build skills they can use between sessions.

Her background includes study in psychology and clinical rehabilitation and mental health counseling. She works from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based methods, and Client-Centered Therapy. Those methods guide how she frames goals and practice in sessions.

Katy does not provide Christian-based counseling, does not run couples therapy, and does not work with anyone under 18. She notes particular awareness of issues facing Jewish clients and the impact of rising antisemitism on Jewish people she supports.

Her style is relaxed and conversational, with a straightforward focus on building skills and using personal strengths. People can expect to talk through patterns, try simple behavioral experiments, and return to what matters most in their life.
