About Katrina

Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio with five years of clinical experience, Katrina Herweh focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and coping with life changes. She practices using Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Katrina holds a Bachelor of Social Work from Xavier University and a Master of Arts in Social Work from Miami University. She is pursuing a PhD in Social Work at Loyola University Chicago with a research interest in pediatric medical trauma.

Katrina uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people manage symptoms and day-to-day challenges. Sessions often include looking at patterns of thought and behavior, trying small experiments between meetings, and telling the story of problems in new ways to reduce their hold. She also uses motivational techniques to support behavior change and short-term solution work when a focused plan is helpful.

Her clinical focus includes post-traumatic stress and mood disorders, as well as grief and the effects of long-term stress. She pays attention to guilt, shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose that can come with these experiences. Seasonal Affective Disorder and issues common in young adulthood are also listed areas of focus.

Katrina trained in Ohio and continues academic work while practicing. That ongoing study informs her approach to trauma-related concerns. She draws on evidence-based methods like CBT alongside narrative and solution-focused strategies to fit what a person needs.

People can expect clear explanations of therapy methods and practical steps to try between sessions. Katrina aims to work collaboratively on goals and to adjust methods as progress is assessed. She offers sessions in English and does not accept international clients.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard. It helps clarify goals and supports exploration of feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and uses concrete exercises to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. CBT often involves practice between sessions to test new ways of thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katrina will discuss which methods fit a person's goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then adjust the plan collaboratively. The therapist and client review progress and shift strategies if something is not helping.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows people to use quieter surroundings or phone-only meetings when less bandwidth or no camera is preferred. These practical benefits often help people maintain regular appointments and try skills between sessions.
