About Kathryn

Kathryn Wich is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who centers sessions on the person in front of her. She uses a warm, empathetic style and helps people tackle problems step by step. Kathryn draws on ten years of clinical experience and focuses on practical ways to reduce stress and manage mood.

She is licensed in Florida as an LMHC (Florida LMHC MH14365). Her work often addresses anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, and trauma.

Background and approach

Kathryn also supports people facing relationship strain, intimacy-related questions, and compassion fatigue. She brings straightforward tools from cognitive-behavioral therapy to help change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Mindfulness techniques are used to ease distress in the moment and to build calmer day-to-day routines.

Solution-focused strategies help set short-term goals and test small changes quickly. Sessions are tailored to each person, with plans adjusted based on how an approach is working. Kathryn also has experience with concerns such as bipolar mood patterns, panic, phobias, and post-traumatic stress.

Additional areas she addresses include caregiver stress, end-of-life and hospice related counseling, body image, gender dysphoria, and issues faced by older adults. Every session aims to leave people with clear steps they can use between meetings. Kathryn speaks English and provides remote care from Florida.

The focus is on helping people feel heard, figure out what helps, and practice workable skills for daily life.

Therapeutic approaches for online work and practical change

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening without judgment and helping people feel heard. It’s about building a trusting relationship and shaping goals around what matters most to the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches simple ways to spot unhelpful thoughts and change small behaviors that influence mood. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and everyday stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Kathryn will work together with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions are adjusted over time when something isn’t working, and progress is checked with practical steps and short-term goals.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to keep regular meetings, practice skills between sessions, and get support without extra travel. The focus is on flexibility and creating usable strategies that fit into daily life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
