About Katrina

Katrina Spohn is an Ohio LISW with ten years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and feelings of guilt and shame. Katrina also helps people facing grief, depression, ADHD-related concerns, and career or life-purpose questions.

She has worked in community mental health settings and with individuals since the COVID-19 pandemic increased her telehealth work. Katrina listens for patterns in relationships and attachment, and she pays attention to how past events shape present choices. Her approach blends Attachment-Based ideas with client-centered listening and practical cognitive behavioral strategies.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. She asks questions to clarify what matters most and uses exercises to practice new ways of thinking and relating. For people navigating relationship stress, Katrina draws on Emotionally-Focused techniques and elements of the Gottman Method to help identify interaction habits and try small changes.

Katrina often supports people managing caregiver stress, postpartum concerns, or guilt tied to family and faith. She also has experience with impulsivity, addiction-related patterns, and some developmental issues such as intellectual disability and disruptive mood concerns in young people. She frames work as collaborative rather than prescriptive.

If you choose to begin, the first steps include a short questionnaire and then scheduling an initial session. Katrina uses straightforward language and practical steps, and she helps clients set realistic goals for change over time.

How Katrina uses evidence-based approaches online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current trust and closeness. Katrina uses it to help people name old relationship habits and try new ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy means conversations are guided by the client's priorities; the therapist reflects, listens, and follows what the client brings up to shape goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and provides clear exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Katrina will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps most. She frames sessions as a partnership focused on practical changes rather than fixed techniques.

The specifics of how she runs online sessions are not listed here, so confirm current session formats before booking. Many people find online work easier to schedule around family, work, or caregiving responsibilities. Some formats use less bandwidth or allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited. Bringing notes or brief practice between sessions can make online work feel more manageable and grounded in daily life.
