About Katherine
Katherine Salmons is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina. She combines a direct, warm style with practical strategies to help people handle stress, anger, anxiety, and substance use concerns. With four years of clinical experience, Katherine has supported people facing depression, trauma, and addiction.
She also helps those dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, self-harm concerns, and challenges common in young adulthood. Her approach adapts to each person’s situation instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Background and approach
In sessions she blends cognitive-behavioral tools with experiential and humanistic ideas. She draws on strengths-based work and trauma-informed perspectives to guide conversations and skill practice. That means identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way, trying different ways of responding, and building on what already works.
Katherine aims to be straightforward and compassionate. She focuses on small, achievable changes that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Practical coping skills and strategies for managing anger, cravings, or intense emotions are common parts of her work.
People who choose her often want clear direction alongside empathy. Katherine personalizes treatment plans and checks in regularly to adjust goals. She encourages active participation and teaches tools clients can use between sessions.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Many of Katherine’s core methods focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and practicing new behaviors. Cognitive-behavioral techniques help identify and shift patterns that feed anxiety, depression, and anger. These techniques often include short exercises and homework to build new skills between sessions.She also uses trauma-informed and humanistic ideas that pay attention to safety, pacing, and the person’s strengths. Trauma-informed work helps when past hurts affect current behavior, while humanistic moments focus on validation and finding personal meaning. These approaches can help with recovery from substance use, processing grief, and managing strong emotions.
Katherine approaches treatment as a collaboration. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That may mean trying a few techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for this kind of work. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a brief check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit quick check-ins, request coping tools, or summarize progress between longer sessions. These formats increase flexibility and make consistent care easier to maintain.
