Katherine Lympany , LPCC

Katherine Lympany is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio with six years of experience supporting people through moments of stress, anxiety, grief, and life transition. She has worked across the lifespan, providing care for children, adults, and older adults, and brings a flexible, individualized approach to each therapeutic relationship. Katherine describes her practice as eclectic - she selects methods that best fit the person rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Her work includes addressing trauma and abuse, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder, attention and focus challenges like ADHD, and relational issues including intimacy, parenting, and career stress. She also supports clients navigating identity and LGBT-related concerns, compassion fatigue, and the practical demands of everyday coping. Katherine integrates evidence-informed techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside client-centered and motivational strategies to help clients develop skills and find direction.

Katherine emphasizes collaboration and respects the courage it takes to begin therapy. She aims to listen without judgment, invite feedback, and partner with clients as the experts on their own lives. When people are ready to begin, she is prepared to walk alongside them through the work of healing and growth.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Katherine draws on client-centered therapy to create a respectful, collaborative relationship where the client’s goals and preferences guide the work. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and tailoring interventions to the individual, making it useful for those seeking a supportive space to explore personal concerns.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and learn practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT is action-oriented and often includes tools that translate well to virtual sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are incorporated when clients need skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and building healthier relationships. DBT offers concrete practices that can be taught and practiced through video or messaging formats.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Katherine works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She reviews options together and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy provides practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals and to practice new skills between sessions.
