Katie is by far the best help I have had in getting my mental health in order. After a fairly traumatic family and life changing issue she has been nothing but supportive and kind. She has offered ways to help me understand the things going on and ways to take myself out of a bad situation or at least help deal with it mentally. I've been given a variety of excersizes, projects and things to listen and watch to help me through this trying time. She's responsive and very forward with her schedule as well. Always letting me know if she'll need to change the schedule in advance. She's excellent. Katie is amazing and I would hands down reccomend her to anyone that ever asked.
More about Katelyn

I am a child and family therapist licensed in Michigan with over 5 years of experience working as a therapist/social worker. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, childhood trauma, youth anger management, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many individuals who have lived or are living through abuse.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I am looking forward to speaking to you and building a trusting therapeutic alliance.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Katelyn has helped me in many faucets of my life. Relationships, loss, and dealing with my daughters. I appreciate the insight she has given, the videos on narcissism, books to read, and words of wisdom. She has great understanding and empathy for others and is an amazing person to work with. If I need services in the future I would like to be linked back with her. I enjoyed working with her and have grown in the time spent with her.
I am so thankful to have connected with Katie. She is so comforting and I owe her so much. She is a real gem! The most down to earth woman I have met and I can’t thank her enough for that.
