Dr. Katherine Elder works as a psychology and counseling specialist in Lewes, DE.

"unprofessional & bias My ex and I hired dr elder to be our coparent coordinator. I find her to be bias, unprofessional, and uneducated on the signs of domestic violence. My ex is verbally and emotionally abusive. She continues to allow him to perpetrate domestic violence against me in the form of verbal and emotional abuse. I question her competence as a coordinator because of this. Most of our sessions are spent with me defending my (irrelevant) social media posts that my ex has provided and made a complaint about. She entertains this stalking & controlling behavior, instead of staying on relevant tasks. I don’t think she’s well versed in dealing with narcissists. She’s a nightmare of a doctor to deal with. I do not recommend her."

What is Counseling?

Counseling is a type of professional guidance for handling problems in life. There are many types of counselors, and they serve an incredibly wide variety of people with all kinds of different needs. There are general counselors, marriage and family counselors, school and student counselors, career and vocational counselors, religious counselors, and gerontological counselors specifically for the elderly.

In all cases, counseling works when the client and the counselor talk to each other and develop a trusting relationship. The counselor listens respectfully to the client's problems. Then the two together work on identifying goals, increasing coping skills to overcome any troubles, and improving useful skills such as communication. The goals of counseling will be different for each person, but generally they include an increased sense of well being, decreased distress and anxiety, resolved crisis, and increased ability and function in daily life.
