Catalyst Counseling and Mental Health is built on the belief that therapy should be a safe, affirming space where all identities and relationships are respected. I work with LGBTQIA+ individuals, ethically non-monogamous and relationship-diverse communities, and those involved in kink/BDSM, offering nonjudgmental care where you never have to explain or defend who you are.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide trauma-informed, evidence-based therapy that blends EMDR, CBT, DBT skills, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. My specialties include trauma recovery, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and identity exploration.
I understand that kink and consensual non-monogamy are not problems to be “fixed,” but meaningful parts of many people’s lives. My goal is to help you process difficult experiences, strengthen coping tools, and reconnect with your own resilience while honoring your authentic self and relationships.
Services are offered through secure online sessions across Missouri, making it easier to access affirming care from the comfort of your own space.
If you’ve been looking for a therapist who is both affirming and practical, someone who understands the nuances of LGBTQIA+, polyamory, and kink communities, I’d be honored to connect with you.
