About Katherine

Katherine Myers is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing addiction, eating disorders, trauma, and mood concerns find clearer footing. She draws on nine years of practice to guide people through crisis, recovery, and life transitions. Katherine meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps toward feeling better. Her work often addresses substance use and recovery, disordered eating, and healing after traumatic experiences. She also supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, body image struggles, anger, relationship strain, and career stress. Sessions blend attention to personal history with strategies for coping in the moment. Katherine describes her style as warm, nonjudgmental, and goal oriented. She values genuine connection and uses clear, down-to-earth language so people understand what to expect. She also believes a bit of humor can make tough conversations feel more human. Her approach draws on psychodynamic ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior therapy. Those methods are used to look at patterns, build practical skills, and manage strong emotions. She also incorporates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing in some work and uses equine-assisted psychotherapy in applicable situations. People who choose Katherine usually want both understanding and actionable tools. She helps craft short-term goals and longer-term plans, and she partners with clients to adjust the work as needs change. If you want a therapist who balances reflection with skill-building, Katherine may be a fit.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Psychodynamic work looks at patterns that repeat across relationships and time. Online sessions can use this approach to notice recurring thoughts and behaviors and connect them to past experiences, helping people understand why they react as they do.

Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through concrete exercises. In remote sessions this often means practicing new coping skills, tracking mood and behavior between meetings, and trying small experiments in everyday life.

Dialectical behavior therapy teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills. Those skills can be taught and practiced in conversation and with short at-home exercises between sessions. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Katherine will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, symptoms, and preferences. She typically combines insight-oriented work with skill building so sessions address both understanding and practical change. Confirm the available session formats before booking, since no specific formats are listed here. Many people find online therapy fits into busy schedules because it removes commute time, lets sessions occur during lunch or breaks, and supports follow-up work between meetings. Talk with the therapist when you schedule to pick times and formats that fit your routine and needs.
