Hello there! I'm Katherine Lord and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been in this lovely helping profession for over 10 years as a therapist and in various other clinical roles. I enjoy building therapeutic relationships with people and being a supportive, non-judgmental presence which can be adapted to your needs. My therapy style is generally client-centered but I often pull from different modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).
As a therapist I strive to be genuine, direct, kind, and honest. I feel like many of life's challenges can be worked through with the right tools and mindset and sometimes we just need a little bit of guidance to move in the right direction. I especially like to work with others on how they relate to themselves, others, and the world.
I hope that you will continue on this path of seeking counseling and if you feel like I would be a good fit for you, I look forward to working with you. I am new to the platform so am finding my rhythm. I appear to be able to check and respond to messages periodically throughout the week and on Saturdays. I also have a limited number of live sessions available weekday evenings and on Sundays.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
