About Katrina
Katrina Spohn is a licensed independent social worker in Ohio who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, and other life changes. She writes and listens with care, aiming to understand each person's story. Katrina encourages honest conversation and small steps toward clearer goals.
Her practice grew from work in community mental health agencies. Over about 10 years she developed experience supporting people with trauma and abuse, coping after major changes, and parenting concerns. She also works with issues such as addiction, depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Katrina uses a client-centered stance in sessions, focusing on the person's experience and priorities. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how close relationships shape feelings and behavior. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques and emotion-focused tools when they fit the client's goals.
In sessions she asks questions with curiosity rather than judgment. Conversations and any treatment plan are shaped to each person's needs. Katrina aims to help people find practical ways to manage emotions, communicate more clearly, and make choices that match their values.
She discovered a strong interest in telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic and has continued to offer services that way. Katrina treats clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring her approach to individual circumstances.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. Online sessions using this approach involve asking open questions, reflecting feelings, and shaping goals together to fit each person's life. Attachment-based work looks at how close relationships affect emotions and patterns; online conversations can identify those patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practice different responses; online sessions can include short exercises and homework to try between meetings.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's needs and goals, and may adjust the plan as progress is made. The aim is a shared decision about what feels most useful.
The biography indicates experience offering services via telehealth, but does not list specific session formats here. Confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, require less travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use tools like shared worksheets or screen-sharing to practice skills between appointments.
