She is very helpful and working with her has had long lasting results

Reviewed December 2019

Katie is a wonderful counselor. She seems to know when I need to step back, yet always checks in to see how I am doing. She makes me feel like she truly does care. She gets my stupid sense of humor and tolerates me! lol I highly recommend her. (In fact I already have sent a few people here who have subscribed).

More about Katie

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCPC, LPC

Hello, my name is Katie Hepner and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I have been in the field for 13 years and I am currently working as a school counselor. For the last few years, I have worked in the private practice sector specializing in individuals that struggle with depression, anxiety, stress management, life transitions and parent/child relationships. Being a breast cancer survivor, I also have experience and insight into what it means to have cancer and the worries/struggles that come with it.

My goal is to help individuals connect with their inner strengths and their authentic selves so that they can move forward with living life, instead of just surviving it. I would be honored to be a part of that process for you.

My focus is creating a comfortable and therapeutic environment where you are empowered to make positive changes. In addition to traditional psychotherapy, I incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy and strategies of mindfulness. If you are looking to uplift your mood; or reduce stress and anxiety please contact me. I look forward to speaking with you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
