Hello and thank you for viewing my profile. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both New York and Florida, with over 27 years of experience in counseling, personal development, and mental health coaching.
I approach our work together from a collaborative, strength-based perspective on mental wellness. My practice focuses on a whole-person model of care, emphasizing dignity, respect, sensitivity, and choice. I intentionally avoid stigmatizing labels and deficit-focused language, fostering a safe, non-judgmental environment where growth and healing can happen.
I help adults navigating major life transitions overcome feelings of anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, low self-esteem, self-sabotaging thoughts, or limiting beliefs. Through compassionate, person-centered care, I offer practical strategies to rebuild confidence and gain clarity. Sessions are not just about talking but about developing skills and designing actionable steps toward conflict resolution, increased self-awareness of unhelpful thoughts & patterns of behavior, and decreasing negative self-talk. Together, as a team, we will create a personalized plan for meaningful growth, self-acceptance, and lasting transformation.
Additional areas of focus: Stress, Anxiety, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Parenting issues, Compassion fatigue, ADHD, Aging and geriatric issues, Caregiver issues and stress, Codependency, Communication problems, Family of origin issues, Family problems, Guilt and shame, Hospice and end-of-life counseling, Infidelity, Jealousy, Life purpose, Midlife crisis, Self-love, Women's issues, Workplace issues
Clinical approaches: Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Katherine Flechaus. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
She has been amazing, and has been my safe space and also given me knowledge to what Im dealing with. Which I could have never done alone.

She's been a pleasure to speak with over the last couple weeks. She's open & honest about situations that I speak about. Always on time & scheduling is easy. Not overbearing or rude but can kindly explain if I need to work on something without making me feel uncomfortable.

I am so thankful and happy to have Katherine as my therapist. She makes me feel so comfortable and is so easy to talk too. I feel her warmth and kindness through every video session and always look forward to my sessions. Even when I know they are going to be heavy Katherine always gives me great exercises or feedback. I tell all my friends that they need to download better help and they would only be so lucky to also work with Katherine!

One visit and I feel rejuvenated and reset to tackle my problems. I've got a list of steps already and I'm using the tools given to me. She listens, she makes suggestions, and I feel like I've known her a long time. Looking forward to checking in with her soon!
