My impression of that was that Ellie is pulling the silent treatment on her as well, but Katherine is a trained psychologist and she's got a pretty good grasp of what's actually going on and why. Possibly even because she herself has her own demons and issues that sort of relate to our shared past. So she basically has insight that no other therapist would.It's also possible she actually talks to Kath sometimes; that cryptic statement she made about Ellie being perfectly normal makes me suspicious.
It's probably similar to how Katherine figured out what was going on between the two siblings, even though I feel like Ellie would never even remotely have told her that even if she was talking. Katherine is just good at paying attention and putting the clues together.
Of course I could be wrong and it's actually canon that Ellie talks to pretty much everyone other than her mother and the teachers at school. But I don't really get that impression. I think at the moment the only one she talks to is Jada.
