Katelynn Kolb - Full
Katelynn is in the last few semesters of her master’s in clinical Mental Health program at Messiah University. She has a passion for working with children and teens, as well as the veteran population, specifically PTSD. She has experienced working with children through volunteering at her local church as well as being previously certified as a Behavior Technician for children with autism spectrum disorder. Her passion for teens is to help them feel equipped to navigate the challenging years of middle school and high school.
Katelynn views counseling through a holistic lens. She believes that healing comes from the mind, body, and soul. As a result, she is interested in pursuing a certification in Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy. She welcomes all spirituality into the sessions. For children, she is interested in becoming certified in play therapy, as well as using Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. She will take a person-centered approach with empathy and understanding as well as utilizing cognitive behavioral techniques, solution-focused and family systems.
Katelynn lives with her husband and three children in Lexington. They have moved to the area in 2021 for her husband’s job. Before starting school, she worked as the mission’s coordinator for her church. She has served on two short term mission trips and has a desire to travel to many different countries sharing God’s love and learning about all of the different cultures. Her goal is to make sure that she is a culturally competent and sensitive counselor to people from all backgrounds.
