Kaitlin Armon, LPC

Life can feel so heavy at times and it can be difficult to feel like there is a way out or a way through the circumstances we face. It’s my desire to partner with people to help them know that they are not alone as they navigate the struggles and challenges of life. 

Experience

I have experience working with clients ranging in ages from adolescence through the lifespan. Settings and types of counseling experience include individual therapy, group therapy; behavioral health intensive inpatient and partial hospitalization programs. I have worked at Gateway, Rosecrance, and Eating Recovery Center/Insight Behavioral Health in areas of addiction, eating disorders, mood disorders, anxiety and dual diagnosis.​

Specialties

I am experienced in the treatment of: eating disorders, anxiety, depression, couples/marital counseling, life transitions and addiction. Most often, I use Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral therapy (DBT) in therapy with my clients. I am also trained in Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), which is the main treatment modality I use with couples. I work with adults, couples, young adults, and adolescence (16 and older). I also provide Christian counseling to clients desiring to incorporate their Christian faith in the healing process.

How I Help

In counseling sessions, I bring a caring, compassionate, inviting, and down to earth approach to therapy. I am here to be an advocate for you, a safe place to work towards your goals and overcome your struggles.  My goal is for you to feel seen, heard and understood. I want your time in therapy to be effective and for you to see change happening in your life. I’m a big believer in the teaching of and use of coping skills that will help you feel confident to cope outside of our counseling sessions, in your day to day life. I use my diverse counseling background to identify the best ways to support you and this is unique to each client that I meet with. 

I have had a variety of life experiences including, playing a college sport, traveling, spending time in India, navigating various medical issues as well as, more recently, becoming a mom. These experiences have given me a greater understanding of different cultures, more empathy for clients struggling with chronic pain and ongoing health issues, and the first-hand experience in the challenges and demands of being a parent.

More About Me

My husband, Thomas, and I have 2 children, Lydia and Ezekiel, who keep us busy and on our toes. I enjoy exercising, biking, and spending time outside in nature. I am a follower of Christ and this has shaped my life in many ways.  Spending quality time with friends and family, board games, reading fiction novels, journaling, prayer, and having alone time are all things that bring me joy and fill my cup.
