About Katherine
Katherine Feldmeier welcomes adults who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or past trauma. She makes space for honest conversation and helps people set clear, manageable goals. Katherine uses everyday language and practical steps so clients can start seeing small changes quickly.
She is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - with 15 years of professional experience in Indiana. Her work focuses on common life struggles like low self-esteem, grief, relationship difficulties, addictive behaviors, and parenting stress.
Background and approach
She also addresses concerns related to ADHD, bipolar disorder, chronic illness, and body image in individual sessions. In session, Katherine centers the client’s own perspective. She believes each person knows their story best, and she helps people build on their strengths.
Sessions often involve identifying patterns, practicing new skills, and trying short exercises between meetings to track progress. Katherine blends several practical methods to fit the person in front of her. She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to change thinking and behavior, client-centered techniques to reflect and validate experience, and mindfulness practices to manage stress and focus attention.
Her approach is collaborative and goal oriented. Clients can expect straightforward suggestions, gentle challenges, and tools they can use at home. Katherine encourages people to take small steps and notices progress along the way.
How therapeutic approaches come alive online
Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s experience at the center of each session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the person name goals and options. This approach helps people feel understood and guides decisions about next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing small changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by giving practical tools to manage daily reactions and build new habits.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how feelings shape relationships and personal choices. When emotion is clearer, people can try new ways of connecting and responding, which can ease chronic patterns of worry or conflict.
Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different techniques. Together they can adjust methods as therapy progresses to find what helps most.
Online sessions offer flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls let people see body language and use visual worksheets. Phone sessions work well when internet or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging provide quick check-ins, shorter touchpoints, or written reflections between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and busy days while keeping the focus on steady progress and usable skills.
