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.
Our journey begins by identifying the barriers that have been impeding your progress toward personal and professional goals. Together, we will explore the triggers that contribute to symptoms and behaviors you find challenging. From this foundation, we will develop practical skills and strategies to create actionable, sustainable changes tailored to your unique needs and aspirations.
This process may bring moments of empowerment and challenges alike, as growth often does. Rest assured, I will walk beside you through the highs and lows, providing support and encouragement as you make positive changes to live your best life.

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.
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!

When I accepted the trial with Better Help I was skeptical. I was concerned whether I would be matched with a compatible therapist who would be able to help me shift perspectives, and develop new habits to supersede old ones to overcome harmful patterns. From our first session, Kathy have been an active listener, given really great advice, and I feel genuinely heard. She has offered practical solutions on how to approach old patterns and cycles and shifted my ways of thinking for the better. I have come out of every session with a better outlook, new agency and useful tools to overcome old, harmful thoughts and ways. As much as I want to gatekeep her, I highly recommend Kathy and would refer her to anyone who is looking to be heard and break out of old patterns.
