About Lidor

Lidor Kohen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, and career strain. She offers steady, empathetic support and works with clients to identify practical goals and next steps.

Lidor uses a person-centered style that keeps the conversation collaborative. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual. She listens for strengths and builds on them while naming patterns that get in the way of change.

Her work often involves practical skill-building for coping and motivation. That can mean setting small goals, practicing ways to manage anxious moments, and trying new approaches to communication. Clients leave with clear ideas they can use between sessions.

She also supports people working through attachment questions, abandonment experiences, adoption and foster care issues, and concerns linked to aging and caregiving. Other areas she addresses include body image, codependency, commitment and control issues, and navigating kink and alternative sex culture dynamics.

Lidor brings five years of clinical experience to her practice. She speaks English and Hebrew. People interested in starting therapy are asked to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on the therapist's availability.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Two common evidence-based techniques used in this therapist's practice are skill-focused coping work and person-centered counseling. Coping work teaches simple, repeatable strategies to manage anxious moments, stress, and low motivation so clients can use them during busy days. Person-centered counseling centers the client's goals and perspective, helping people clarify what they want to change and how to get there.

These approaches are described and adjusted together. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, try methods that feel right, and shift course when something isn't working. Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process based on needs, preferences, and what shows results in early sessions.

Many people find online therapy helpful for fitting care into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, make scheduling during work breaks easier, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. The original profile does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm the available online or in-person options before booking. The therapist will work with clients to arrange session times that fit their routines.
