01About Katherine
Katherine (Kate) Schenk is a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania who combines practical talk therapy with evidence-based tools. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness so people can learn new ways of managing stress and difficult thoughts. Kate aims to make sessions clear and focused so parents and busy adults can use what they learn quickly.
She has four years of experience as an LPC and has worked with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and many forms of addiction.
Background and approach
Kate also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood patterns, and life changes that feel overwhelming. Her practice includes attention to less common concerns such as traumatic brain injury, obsessive-compulsive issues, and first responder stress. In session she uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and take meaningful action.
She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a nonjudgmental space, and Narrative Therapy to help people reframe painful stories about themselves. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques are used to teach concrete coping skills. Kate works with people to set realistic, step-by-step goals.
She focuses on practical strategies you can try between sessions. Conversations are collaborative so goals shift as needs change. Sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.
To begin, someone would complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood, and compulsive habits. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship so people feel heard and can explore challenges at their own pace.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning can change over time as needs shift and progress is made.
Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people work through material with face-to-face interaction. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a hands-free option is needed. Live chat and text are useful for short check-ins, progress notes, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and maintain steady contact with licensed professionals.
