More about Katherine

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

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, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
