Katelyn Elliott, LPC - Therapist in Pennsylvania

About Katelyn

Katelyn Elliott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on issues parents often worry about, like stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and parenting concerns. She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related problems, identity and LGBT concerns, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar.

Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people take practical steps that fit their lives. Katelyn trained at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and brings a human-centered, existential perspective to sessions.

Background and approach

She treats each person as the expert on their own life and works collaboratively to uncover what matters most. Sessions often involve looking at daily patterns, motivation for change, and building skills to manage symptoms. She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with existential ideas and motivational interviewing to match the work to each person’s needs.

That combination helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify values, and find reasons to keep trying when change is hard. The focus is on usable tools and clearer personal meaning, not only on talking about problems. Katelyn offers a practical, nonjudgmental environment.

She helps people see choices and small next steps when life feels stuck. Parents will find direct guidance on coping skills and communication strategies to try between sessions. Her practice supports work on co-morbidity, codependency, communication problems, panic and social anxiety, substance issues, and women’s concerns.

Sessions are provided in English and are held according to the therapist’s location and scheduling.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online work

Existential Therapy is about finding meaning and values in everyday life. Sessions encourage people to reflect on what matters and make choices that fit their life story; this can help when facing big changes or questions of purpose.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on noticing thoughts and habits that get in the way. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change thinking patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find internal reasons to change. It is collaborative and nonconfrontational, useful for substance concerns or when someone feels stuck about making a change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That choice is reviewed and adjusted as therapy progresses so the plan stays useful and relevant.

Online therapy offers the same therapeutic tools through several formats. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be a simpler option, and live chat or text-based messaging support brief check-ins and ongoing support. These options make sessions easier to fit into busy family schedules and allow consistent contact even when life is unpredictable.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
