About Katheryn

Katheryn Cloud is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 16 years of professional experience in hospice and palliative care settings.

Background and approach

She brings deep familiarity with grief, loss, and the transitions that follow major life changes, including the challenges of aging and the variety of losses people face - from bereavement to job or role changes. Her background includes work focused on end-of-life counseling and caregiver stress, which informs a compassionate, steady clinical presence.

Her approach combines evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered and solution-focused techniques, and she integrates mindfulness strategies to help clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Katheryn emphasizes collaboration and acceptance as part of moving toward more fulfilling, balanced living.

She offers video and telephone sessions and accepts international clients; live texting-only therapy is not provided. Prospective clients in Connecticut and beyond are guided through an initial matching and scheduling process to begin work together.

Integrating Practical Techniques with Accessible Online Care

Client-centered therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of the work, emphasizing empathy and collaboration to help clients explore feelings and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing concrete strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress; it is often used to address relationship, intimacy, and addiction-related concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and calming techniques that can support emotional regulation and coping during grief or life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively with each individual to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients can expect an exploratory beginning where techniques are tailored and adjusted over time to fit what is most helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video call and phone, providing flexibility for people managing caregiving responsibilities, health-related limitations, or busy schedules. These remote options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations and time zones and allow ongoing work with a licensed professional even when in-person visits are difficult to arrange.
