Kathryn is an incredible therapist who has listened to my goals and my priorities since day one. I went through quite a few therapists on BetterHelp before I met her and I have now talked to her weekly for almost a year. She uses her experience and compassion to ensure she provides a safe, judgement free environment for me while also challenging my negative coping mechanisms. She also goes out of her way to provide availability when my schedule does not align with her open times on BetterHelp. I absolutely recommend her for anyone looking for a helpful, positive, therapeutic experience.

Welcome to BetterHelp, and thank you for checking out my profile! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Level 2 in Florida with experience in the mental health field since 2010. I got my Bachelors of Science degree in Psychology from the University of Florida in 2011, and my Masters and Specialist Degrees in Mental Health Counseling from UF in 2014. I enjoy working with clients to treat a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief/loss, trauma, PTSD, communication problems, LGBTQ issues, and more.
My therapy style is warm, empathetic, and empowering. I believe true growth and change can happen within a trusting therapeutic relationship. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, person-centered, and mindfulness therapies. Each session and treatment plan is individualized to your specific goals and needs.
My goals as a therapist are to help you feel heard and understood, to create a safe and trusting space, to help you figure out the best solutions to your unique situation, to recognize and strengthen your positive qualities, to heal from past traumas/pain/losses, and to connect with the best version of yourself. Counseling is not always easy, but the healing is worth it.
I hope to work with you soon!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She is absolutely amazing. She understands my concerns and struggles and really takes the time to help me work through things I’m dealing with.
Kathryn is incredibly sweet, kind and professional. I never feel judged, and she has an understanding demeanor, which makes it easier to work through already-challenging situations. I can't recommend Kathryn enough for anyone struggling with self-worth, boundaries, trauma, stress, etc. I look forward to our sessions every week!
Kathryn has been very helpful during my time with her. She is objective and provides exercises and opportunities for me to talk and learn about myself.
10 months and counting. All good!
I'be submitted so many reviews. I cannot say enough good about Kathryn. She's the first and only counselor I've ever had that I genuinely feel is helping me.
Katie is so thoughtful, and warm. She really listens and takes her time to understand what you’re vocalizing to her. First time in therapy, and honestly I’m blown away!
Kathryn is one of the best therapists I’ve had. She deeply cares about the mental health of her clients and listens closely to offer the support and advise that is needed.
I really like the synergy I have with Katie. I enjoy my weekly sessions.
Kathryn is amazing. She’s understanding, easy to talk to, and finds ways to relate to my concerns which is really important to me. She is professional and friendly, and gives me applicable tools and “homework” to work on each week so I can remain accountable. I’ve recommended her (and BetterHelp) to many friends because of how positive my experience has been.
I cannot say enough good about her. Finally, after 10 years of on and off therapy, I feel heard and understood.
Katie is very empathetic and it feels like I'm talking to an impartial friend who has excellent strategies.
I have been so impressed with how Katie has been able to tailor her approach to my specific situation and needs. If she sees that something isn’t resonating with me, she recognizes it and pivots to another approach. She is so supportive, kind, and non-judgemental.
Four good sessions so far, and I really enjoy my conversations with my therapist, and listening to her gives me confidence that I can make some changes to deal with my challenges
Katherine is receptive and helpful. I enjoy the strategies and goals she provides
Very kind and easy to talk to. Gives good advice
This is my first time starting therapy and I couldn't be anymore happy. Kathryn Wich is real, kind, patient, helpful and understanding. Talking to her feels comforting. I am very grateful to have found her and I recommend Kathryn to anyone needing counseling or help. She's worth it !
Kathryn is someone I have found to connect with from the minute we spoke, which is not a common theme for me. I have been with many counselors in the past, and she seems to very much so understand me.
