Evidence-Based Support That Fits Online

Katherine Penny, LCMHC, uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques within a person-centered framework to help clients navigate concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. A person-centered approach emphasizes respect, empathy, and a steady focus on what matters most to the client, helping create room for clarity, self-understanding, and meaningful change over time.

Evidence-based techniques bring structure to the work by drawing on strategies that are commonly used in counseling to build coping skills, strengthen emotional resilience, and improve day-to-day functioning. This can be especially helpful when worry feels constant, mood feels heavy, or self-criticism starts to shape decisions and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Katherine works collaboratively, paying attention to each client’s goals, preferences, and pace, and adjusting the focus as needs shift. The aim is to build a plan that feels practical and supportive, not one-size-fits-all.

Online therapy makes it easier to get consistent support in a format that fits real life. Clients can connect with Katherine through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules, comfort levels, and communication styles.
