Kathryn "Kathy" Proctor

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am an independent, licensed, clinical social worker with over 25 years of practice. I am based in Massachusetts and have been in New England for my whole career. I have a wide range of professional experiences. Early in my career, I focused primarily in mental health, trauma and eating disorders. In more recent years, my work has been around grief, loss and breavement. I am able to work well with many age ranges including young adults, middle-age and the elderly.

My work is client-centered and I am warm and supportive. I am a good listener and like to reflect back the issues and strengths that are present. I also have an ability to understand the bigger picture and help clients to shift their perspective. I know that creating coping skills is important and having concrete tools can be essential. I work with clients to have a better understanding and connection to themselves and their own inner guidance.

I also have a background in healing modalities and use my skills in meditation and breathwork when it is helpful. My style is eclectic and I enjoy pulling from my skill set whatever aspects are most helpful for the client.

I get great joy from helping people to feel better! If you feel I would be a good therapist for you at this time, please contact me here.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

An important benefit of virtual therapy is increased flexibility. Clients can choose the format that works best for them – video sessions, phone appointments, live chat, or in-app messaging – making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.

Licensed professionals provide these services, and individuals may switch therapists if they prefer a different match. Online therapy can offer effective support for many everyday mental health needs while accommodating different lifestyles and access requirements.
