About Lidor
Lidor Kohen is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and LGBTQ concerns. She focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Sessions are conversational and aimed at small, workable changes.
Her style is warm and person-centered. She works in partnership with each client to set clear goals and to track progress. Sessions often include problem-solving, building coping skills, and strengthening communication habits.
Background and approach
Over five years of practice in New York inform her work. That experience includes supporting people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, adoption and foster care histories, and caregiving strain. She also addresses body image, commitment and control issues, and challenges related to alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink.
Kohen speaks English and Hebrew, so she can offer sessions in either language. She uses a range of online formats: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions that suit their availability.
Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies by location and therapist availability.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Many clients benefit from straightforward, evidence-based techniques that focus on current problems and skills people can practice between sessions. Cognitive approaches target unhelpful thinking patterns and teach strategies to manage anxiety and stress through concrete steps and behavioral changes. Skills-focused work emphasizes building coping tools, improving communication, and strengthening self-esteem with practical exercises you can use day to day.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to understand goals, preferences, and the specific challenges they bring. Together they’ll try methods and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the client’s life and pace.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction helps. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit brief updates and reflections into a work break or a hectic day. These options help keep progress moving even when in-person sessions aren’t practical.
