About Katherine
Katherine Myers is a licensed clinical social worker who brings nine years of practice to people seeking help for painful or persistent struggles. She works in Tennessee and helps people facing crises, past traumas, or those who want more satisfaction in life. Katherine writes plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person.
She has particular experience supporting people with eating disorders and recovery from addiction. She also helps individuals managing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, body image concerns, and mood issues such as bipolar disorder.
Background and approach
Her work aims to reduce distress and increase everyday functioning. Katherine describes her approach as warm, straightforward, and goal focused. She uses a mix of longer-term reflection and practical skills so people leave sessions with both insight and tools they can use right away.
Humor and honest feedback are part of how she connects with clients. Her foundation draws on psychodynamic ideas, cognitive behavioral methods, and dialectical behavior techniques. Those offer ways to understand patterns, change unhelpful thinking, and build skills for managing strong emotions.
She can explain what each approach looks like in real sessions. Sessions are offered in English and can include video, phone, chat, or text formats. Katherine accepts international clients and tailors care to fit the pace and goals each person brings.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to find a good fit before scheduling sessions.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Psychodynamic work helps people look at patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices. It focuses on understanding how past experiences shape present feelings and behavior, which can be useful for long-standing struggles and identity questions.Cognitive behavioral methods focus on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. These techniques teach practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and shift behaviors, which is helpful for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day problems.
Dialectical behavior techniques teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. These tools are aimed at reducing intense reactions and improving how someone manages conflict or strong feelings.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Katherine will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or get support in shorter, written exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
