Katelyn Elliott, LPC

Katelyn Elliott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania who brings a thoughtful, human-centered approach to therapy. She earned a master’s degree from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 2012 and holds national certification as a counselor; the LPC credential indicates state licensure to provide professional mental health services, while the national certification reflects meeting broader professional standards.

Her clinical experience includes work with people facing substance use concerns and co-occurring disorders, as well as those managing anxiety, depression and other mood-related conditions. She has supported clients coping with trauma and PTSD, stress management, identity questions, and issues related to LGBTQ identity. Across these areas she emphasizes practical coping skills together with deeper exploration of meaning and identity.

Katelyn’s counseling stance is rooted in a humanistic perspective with a foundation in Existential Therapy. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and works to build a collaborative relationship that helps clients connect with what matters most to them. Through exploration of personal experience and how individuals relate to the world around them, she aims to help clients find purpose and understanding within their challenges.

In practice she integrates several therapeutic methods to match each person’s needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational approaches, and mindfulness practices. This blend of techniques supports clients in developing practical skills for daily living while also creating space to reflect on values and life meaning. Katelyn often uses imagery and metaphor to help clients step back and view their life’s story with increased compassion and perspective.
