Hi, I’m Katie (she/her), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW).
Taking the step to seek therapy is an act of courage and self-compassion—you’re already moving toward positive change by being here. Life’s challenges don’t come with a roadmap, but you don’t have to navigate them alone. I believe in your inherent strength and capacity for growth, empowering you to build resilience and create meaningful change.
I specialize in supporting children (9 to 12), teens, young adults and adults with anxiety, depression, PTSD & trauma recovery, grief and loss, major life transitions, ADHD, separation/divorce, infidelity, self-esteem concerns, stress management, stress, parenting, infidelity, grief, family conflict, relationships, and co-dependency.
Counseling for LGBTQIA+ specific concerns, including identity exploration, coming out, discrimination, family rejection, and gender dysphoria, is also a therapy specialty that I offer.
I blend evidence-based techniques with genuine compassion, creating a trauma-informed, client-centered space where healing can unfold naturally. My approach incorporates psychoeducation, strengths-based language, and, when appropriate, a touch of humor—because healing doesn’t always have to be heavy.
Every person’s story is unique, and your therapy should reflect that. I tailor interventions to meet your individual needs while fostering a collaborative environment. I aim to create an inclusive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. My commitment is to work alongside you in achieving your specific goals while creating a safe, supportive environment where you can feel both accomplished and truly supported throughout your healing journey.
With my background in the arts, I offer creative expression as a therapeutic tool for clients drawn to this approach, providing another pathway to understanding and healing.
My education includes hold a Bachelor’s degree in Art Administration from Marywood University and a Master’s in Social Work from Kutztown University. With experience in the field since 2020, I bring both professional expertise and genuine understanding to our therapeutic work together.
I draw from a diverse toolkit including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness practices, Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered therapy, Humanistic therapy, Narrative therapy, and DBT-informed principles. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, I craft our work together to honor your individual journey. Therapy moves at your pace, builds on your existing strengths, and is designed specifically to help you achieve the goals that matter most to you.
I look forward to the opportunity to counsel you in whatever brings you to therapy today. Please reach out to our scheduling team to ask about my availability if you think I may be a good match for you.

Katie Camoni offers in-person therapy at the Lehigh Valley therapy office and online therapy sessions for anyone in Pennsylvania.
Whether you are suffering from panic attacks, obsessive – compulsive disorder, or generalized anxiety we have therapists who use evidenced-based treatments, such as cognitive-bahavioral therapy, to help you.
Many individuals feel like they are at war with their bodies. Whether it’s feeling shame, guilt, or giving ourselves critical comments about our bodies, we can be our own worst enemy. Our therapists can help you feel at peace with your body and learn to be kind to yourself.
Depression, one of the most common mental health disorders, is very treatable. Our therapists are specially trained to help individuals with depression get back to feeling like themselves again.
While we don’t provide couples counseling at Move Forward, many individuals seek counseling to discuss how they can have healthier relationships. Our therapists can help you learn new ways of communicating, setting boundaries, and other ways to have more positive relationships with others.
Move Forward Counseling is an inclusive practice where we want the LGBTQIA+ community to feel welcome and supported. Whether you are unsure how to embrace your identity, are having relationship issues, or need extra support from a non-judgmental person, we have therapists who can help.
Life transitions encompass many things, including starting or ending a romantic relationship, changes with work or school or making any big life change, such as a move. Often we underestimate how these changes will affect us emotionally until we find ourselves struggling with the ups and downs of the life transition.
Trauma symptoms and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can be debilitating for many who experience it. Recovery from trauma is possible and we have therapists who can help.
Being a kid can be difficult sometimes. It’s a crucial developmental period of growth and change during which children learn about the world and themselves. This can be overwhelming to some children since many are still learning all the tools and skills to help them cope with their emotions and life’s stressors. This is where therapy can provide support.
Caregiving for a loved one can be challenging even in the best of circumstances. Often we don’t think about how the caregiver needs support, too. If you are experiencing burnout, our therapists can teach you skills to help you cope.
Depression and anxiety are extremely common, but often under-diagnosed by medical providers during pregnancy and postpartum. Our providers have specialized training to help women with anxiety and depression in this specific period in their lives.
Moving into adulthood brings its own set of challenges. You may feel pressure to have a “career” or find your life partner. You may be unsure of making these big life decisions and may feel lost because you no longer have school or other adults in your life telling you what you should choose.
The period of adolescence can be exciting, but also challenging for many teens. Difficulties with friends, school, anxiety, depression, cutting, and substance abuse are all common issues for this group. Due to a lack of life experience, teens may not know how to manage these problems which is why therapy can be especially helpful.
