About Katherine

Dr. Katherine Turner is a licensed professional counselor in Tennessee with 16 years of experience. She holds a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and a master’s degree in Community Counseling, and she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people facing family and parenting concerns. Her work often centers on self-esteem, coping with life changes, and coaching for motivation and life direction.

She supports people who are navigating family problems, commitment questions, and the strains of caregiving. Her practice also addresses abandonment, fertility and aging concerns, and relationship issues such as infidelity, jealousy, and codependency. She is comfortable talking about less typical relationship topics, including BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture.

In sessions she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can speak honestly about thoughts and feelings. Conversations focus on concrete steps people can take to feel more confident and purposeful. She also uses coaching approaches for clients who want practical strategies for work, motivation, and life transitions.

Dr. Turner offers multiple remote session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

She conducts therapy in English and does not work with international clients. To begin, clients select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on therapist availability.

Evidence-based approaches and remote care

Dr. Turner uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer goals. One approach emphasizes problem-focused strategies to help people manage parenting challenges, family conflict, and life changes by breaking issues into manageable steps and practicing new skills. Another approach centers on self-esteem and motivation work, helping people build confidence through goal setting, behavioral experiments, and coaching-style guidance.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to clarify goals, test techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide together whether to emphasize coaching, skill-building, or deeper processing of emotions as therapy progresses.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation for deeper work, phone sessions can fit a shorter break or reduce bandwidth needs, and chat or messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing coaching-style contact. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain steady progress without traveling to appointments.
