Getting to know Kaelyn Barabas

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who provides a supportive and nonjudgmental space for individuals navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, and self-esteem challenges. My approach is primarily grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with a focus on helping clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I incorporate practical coping strategies and individualized techniques to help clients manage difficult emotions and develop healthier patterns. I believe therapy is a collaborative process and my goal is to meet each client where they are while supporting meaningful and lasting change.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I want you to feel comfortable being yourself in therapy. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to talk about when you come in. We’ll work together to identify what is bringing you to therapy and what you would like to change. My style is warm, supportive, and conversational, while also providing practical tools you can use outside of sessions. I primarily use CBT to help you understand patterns in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and learn healthier ways of responding. Therapy is a collaborative process so your goals and comfort level will guide our work together. My goal is for you to leave sessions feeling heard, supported, and with something practical you can take with you.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

During our first session, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you’ve been experiencing, and what you hope to work on. From there, we’ll work together to identify goals and develop an approach that fits your individual needs. Sessions are conversational and collaborative. We may spend time talking through current challenges, identifying patterns in thoughts and behaviors, and practicing practical strategies you can use between sessions. I primarily use CBT and incorporate other techniques as appropriate. Each session will look a little different depending on what you need that day. My goal is to provide a supportive space while also helping you leave with tools and strategies you can apply in your everyday life.
