About Katherine
Katherine Flechaus is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 27 years of experience practicing in Florida. She works with adults facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, career transitions, depression, anxiety, and life changes. Katherine lists guilt and shame among her focus areas and also addresses grief, trauma and caregiver stress.
Katherine uses straightforward methods to help people notice the thoughts and patterns that keep them stuck. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to build practical strategies for daily life. She also uses Client-Centered and Narrative approaches to support people in telling their story and finding clearer personal meaning.
Sessions emphasize teamwork and practical steps. Katherine helps clients work on communication problems at home and work. She supports people dealing with caregiving burdens, aging concerns, and issues that tie back to family of origin.
Her background includes long-term clinical practice across different settings, giving her experience with hospice and end-of-life counseling as well as workplace and career challenges. She brings that experience to conversations about midlife, life purpose, and recovery from infidelity or jealousy.
Katherine’s approach is focused on clear, doable changes rather than theory-heavy talk. She helps people try tools in real life, then adjusts them based on what works. Readers should confirm session formats and scheduling details before booking.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting a person’s concerns back so they feel understood; it helps when someone needs to sort out values, feelings, or what they want next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and persistent guilt. Narrative Therapy helps people tell and revise the stories they carry about themselves so that painful labels have less control over day-to-day life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Katherine will talk with each client about goals and preferences and then recommend which methods to try. That decision is revisited over time so the approach fits what the client needs and wants.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking, since this profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule appointments around work, caregiving, or travel. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and it removes the need to commute so sessions can fit into a busy day.
