About Katherine
Katherine Myers is a licensed clinical social worker with nine years of experience who practices in Tennessee.

Katherine prefers short-term goals alongside deeper work. She listens for what matters most to each person and then helps set achievable steps.
Background and approach
Sessions balance talking through painful memories with learning new coping skills for everyday life. She often supports people dealing with stress around relationships, parenting strains, intimacy-related worries, and career uncertainty. Katherine also works with those facing anger, low self-esteem, bipolar challenges, and recovery from substance use.
Her approach mixes attention to past patterns with tools for feeling steadier now. Katherine describes her style as direct but compassionate. She aims to be nonjudgmental and genuine, and she uses a sense of humor when it fits.
The focus is on clear goals and practical changes that make daily life easier. Her clinical background includes psychodynamic work, cognitive behavioral methods, and dialectical behavior approaches. She has experience with equine-assisted psychotherapy and has training in eye movement techniques used for trauma processing.
Katherine helps people access both short-term relief and longer-term personal growth.
Evidence-based approaches adapted for online care
She uses psychodynamic work to help people understand patterns that repeat in relationships and mood. This approach looks at how past experiences shape current feelings and helps bring clarity to recurring problems.She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to teach practical skills for managing anxiety, depressive moods, and unhelpful thoughts. These tools include small behavioral changes and thought-focused exercises that can reduce day-to-day distress.
Dialectical behavior approaches are part of her toolkit for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. These skills can help when strong feelings or impulsive reactions interfere with relationships or recovery goals.
Finding the right mix of methods is a team process. The therapist works with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration helps tailor sessions so they feel useful and realistic.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation from wherever they are. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and fit into busy schedules. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting around work, parenting, or travel.
