02 · In Katelyn's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
Choosing a counselor is an important step, and I am committed to providing a supportive, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. I believe that every individual has unique strengths, and together we can identify the tools and strategies that help you move toward the life you want.
I have experience working with individuals, couples, and groups in a variety of settings, including outpatient therapy, Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), crisis intervention, and both in-person and telehealth services. I have supported clients through parenting challenges, marital and relationship concerns, divorce, career transitions, finding purpose and direction in life, stress management, and the unique experiences of first responders. I also work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), bipolar disorder, dissociation, and other challenges that can impact daily life.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and tailored to each client's individual needs, goals, and strengths. I believe therapy is most effective when it is a collaborative process. You are the expert on your own life, and I encourage you to take an active role and work towards meaningful, lasting change.
Above all, I genuinely love what I do. It is a privilege to walk alongside people during some of life's most difficult moments. Whether you are facing a crisis, navigating a major life transition, or simply looking for greater balance and fulfillment, my goal is to provide compassionate support, practical guidance, and a safe environment where healing and growth can take place. You don't have to face life's challenges alone-I look forward to helping you build the confidence, resilience, and skills needed to move forward.

03 · What happens next
Katelyn practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Katelyn's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Katelyn at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Katelyn is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Katelyn.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

Katelyn's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 6 Nov 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.
The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.
Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Katelyn. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
