Without a doubt, Kate is the best therapist I have ever had. She listened to me and truly tries to understand me. She offers multiple methods to help me cope with my struggles, and pays attention to what does or doesn’t work for me. She even helps me understand things better by both pointing things out I hadn’t thought of, and also explaining things I don’t grasp so I can understand myself. I highly recommend her, she is amazing.

Kate Lawrence is without a doubt amazing. She really tries to connect with me and understand me to help me find the best solution to what I’m struggling with. She is excellent at explaining things and making sure I understand what’s going on or why she has me try different things. You can really tell she has a passion for what she does and it’s so comforting knowing she’s the one working with me through my struggles.

More about Kate

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCMHC

Welcome! I’m Kate, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina and I have been working in the counseling field since 2014. I have worked with clients experiencing a wide range of concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, ADHD, mood dysregulation, parenting challenges, career challenges, addiction, and major life stress. I provide solution-focused interventions that help you accomplish your goals.

I strive to create a counseling experience that feels safe, engaging, and non-judgmental. My therapeutic approach starts with person-centered theory, which allows the client to guide the therapy at their own pace, in a supported environment. I often blend in cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on the relationship between thoughts and behaviors; existential therapy, which focuses on how fear and anxiety manifest; motivational interviewing, which can highlight contradictions between our beliefs and actions; and, if interested, art therapy which utilizes creative expression to provide a different way to communicate and facilitate change. I will tailor the therapy based on your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to work towards a fulfilling and happier life. It is a privilege to be here to assist, support, and empower you on your journey.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
