About Katelyn

Katelyn Felter is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York. She draws on five years of professional experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and the fallout from trauma and grief. Her style is warm and interactive, and she tries to make each session a place where people can speak openly without judgment.

Katelyn uses a mix of practical tools and listening. She often integrates cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small, manageable changes. Trauma-focused work is also part of her approach when people bring difficult past experiences into the room.

Sessions focus on what a person wants to change now. That might mean building calmer responses to anger, easing panic attacks, or improving self-esteem and body image. She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related concerns, LGBTQ issues, and struggles with eating and impulsivity.

Katelyn describes her method as flexible and tailored. She and the client decide together which techniques to use and when to try them. This keeps work grounded in concrete goals and small steps rather than abstract theory.

She encourages people who are nervous about starting to notice that taking a first step is meaningful. The intake process includes a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on therapist availability, and she supports clients through those first steps.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own answers. The therapist creates space for people to say what matters most and guides conversations toward each person's goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying practical exercises to change behavior and mood; it is often helpful for anxiety, panic, anger, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods to try first based on goals, needs, and comfort. That plan can change over time as progress is made or new priorities appear.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since this profile does not specify them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight. Some formats also use less bandwidth or do not require video, which can help on days when a quick session is needed rather than a longer in-person visit. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and client-centered techniques well to remote work, using worksheets, breathing practices, and focused conversations to keep sessions practical and goal oriented.
