About Katlyn

Katlyn Hill is a licensed social worker who uses Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside practical approaches to help people feel steadier. She brings six years of clinical experience and a calm, interactive style to sessions. Her manner is warm and respectful, and she aims to help people take the first steps toward change.

She works with concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. Katlyn also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, addiction, and issues around intimacy and family. She addresses eating and body-image struggles and mood-related conditions like panic, seasonal shifts, and personality challenges.

Her sessions draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build skills for managing thoughts, emotions, and behavior. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to look at relationship patterns and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing tools when trauma processing is appropriate. Treatment plans are shaped around each person’s needs and goals.

Katlyn keeps things collaborative and goal-focused. She listens for strengths and practical steps, then helps people try new habits and coping tools. Progress often comes from small, consistent changes rather than big leaps.

People who choose Katlyn can expect a therapist who blends skill-building, emotional work, and motivation. She aims to make therapy clear and approachable while supporting people as they navigate life changes and regain more control over daily functioning.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process and make sense of upsetting events. It often includes pacing the work and using techniques to reduce distress around painful memories. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce anxiety and depression and build coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and practical skills for managing intense feelings and interpersonal challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made or priorities shift.

Confirm current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to use worksheets, skill coaching, and trauma-processing tools during a session in ways that match a person’s schedule and everyday life.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
