Kaitlin Reichart, LPC

Kaitlin Reichart is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She works with parents, young adults, and individuals navigating grief, trauma, substance concerns, and relationship struggles. Sessions are conversational and aimed at practical steps clients can use between meetings.

Kaitlin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, client-centered methods, motivational interviewing, and narrative approaches to shape treatment. She leans toward strategies that break big problems into manageable pieces and teach new skills for coping and communication. The therapist focuses on clear, usable tools rather than jargon or long lectures.

Before private practice she spent years in school-based and higher-intensity settings, including crisis intervention, a therapeutic classroom role, a residential treatment facility, and partial hospitalization. That background gives experience with co-occurring mental health and substance concerns. Her path includes hands-on work with adolescents and adults across different care settings.

In sessions she aims to be warm and inviting, keeping conversations direct and collaborative. She sees each person as unique and works to tailor plans to individual needs. Clients learn concrete techniques for emotion regulation, problem solving, and improving communication.

Kaitlin holds a Pennsylvania LPC credential and brings five years as a licensed counselor to her practice. She offers flexible session formats, and works with people who want steady, practical progress toward clearer goals.

How CBT and DBT Shape Online Sessions

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on recognizing unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It helps with anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that keep problems going by turning insights into clear homework and skill practice.

DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger communication. It is useful when emotions feel overwhelming or when someone wants concrete skills for handling strong reactions and tough conversations.

Kaitlin also uses client-centered techniques that keep the conversation focused on the person's priorities and perspective. Together these approaches let the therapist and client pick methods that match goals, whether learning a new coping skill, changing a habit, or improving relationships. Choosing the right mix is collaborative; the therapist will review options and adjust based on what feels most helpful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill coaching and role play. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick symptom tracking, brief coaching reminders, or ongoing check-ins between sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while using the same clinical approaches as in-person care.
