About Katlyn

Katlyn Maves is a Florida licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with four years of clinical experience. She helps people facing life changes, relationship and family strains, parenting challenges, stress and anxiety, and questions about life purpose. Katlyn also supports people dealing with trauma, intimacy concerns, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and compassion fatigue.

She uses narrative therapy and solution-focused techniques to keep sessions practical. Katlyn asks about what matters most and then looks for small, workable steps. Conversations are down-to-earth and aimed at clarifying priorities and options rather than offering quick fixes.

Many clients come with blended family issues, adoption or foster care questions, caregiver stress, or difficulties in workplace relationships. She also addresses gender dysphoria, sexuality, polyamory and multicultural concerns when those topics are part of someone's story. Young adult issues and women's concerns are commonly part of her caseload.

Sessions tend to focus on communication problems, family of origin patterns, divorce or separation impacts, and rebuilding after loss or change. Katlyn pays attention to how past narratives shape present choices and looks for moments where reframing can open new possibilities.

Her style is straightforward and conversational. She helps people sort priorities, try small experiments, and reassess what’s working. To begin, people follow the site's matching steps and schedule a first session.

How Narrative and Solution-Focused Work Translate to Online Sessions

Katlyn uses narrative therapy to help people examine the stories that shape how they see themselves. This approach involves talking through past events and identifying patterns so different choices become clearer. It can help with family problems, identity questions, and feeling stuck after a life change.

She also draws on solution-focused therapy, which centers on concrete goals and small experiments. That method looks for what’s already working and builds brief, targeted steps to move forward. It’s useful for stress, communication problems, career questions, and parenting challenges.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. Adjustments happen over time based on what the client finds helpful.

The original biography did not list which session formats are offered. Before booking, confirm the current online session options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a work break, sessions that avoid travel time, or options that reduce screen time when needed. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises and homework so they work between sessions and in everyday settings.
