Katherine Feldmeier, LCSW

Katherine Feldmeier is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Indiana with 15 years of experience. She works with adults who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, trauma, and life changes. Her style is warm and practical, focused on helping people find clear steps forward and regain confidence and calm.

Her approach treats the person, not just the problem. She listens to each person's story and helps them use their existing strengths to meet goals. Sessions often focus on what the client wants to change and the small actions that add up over time.

Katherine blends several therapy methods to match each person's needs. She uses client-centered techniques to build collaboration, cognitive behavioral tools to address thinking and behavior patterns, and elements of mindfulness to help manage stress in the moment. Motivational interviewing and emotionally-focused ideas also shape her work when motivation or relationships are central concerns.

Practical skill-building is part of sessions, such as coping tools for anxiety, strategies for better sleep and eating habits, and ways to manage overwhelming emotions. She also helps with career stress, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges. Katherine guides people through grief, identity questions, and relationship difficulties with straightforward support.

She encourages people to take a small step toward what they want. The process begins with setting goals together and trying tools to see what fits. Katherine aims to create steady progress that feels doable rather than rushed.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, validation, and working at each person's pace. It helps people clarify goals and feel heard while deciding what steps to take next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical tools to change patterns related to anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and name emotions and improve how they respond in close relationships; it can be useful when intimacy or attachment issues are central.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katherine collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as needs evolve. Clients help shape which techniques are tried and which are set aside.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use certain tools in real time, like practicing breathing or grounding exercises with the therapist guiding them. Discussing practical logistics during the first contact helps ensure sessions fit daily life and goals.
