Psychotherapist

Therapy for queer, femme, nerdy & kinky folk

Virtual therapy in Louisiana

You’re not here for cookie-cutter therapy. You want a therapist who gets your messy brilliance: the queer, kinky, polyamorous, neurodivergent, trauma-holding, ADHD-fueled, beautifully complex version of you.

I’m Katherine, a trauma-informed, identity-affirming therapist helping individuals, couples, and polycules across Louisiana make real, lasting changes.

I work with people who’ve been burned by therapy before, who hate being talked down to, and who are ready for a mix of humor, accountability, and depth. My clients are ofn intense, creative, and a little tired of their own patterns, and they’re ready to do the real work.

Who I work with

• Individuals dealing with ADHD, trauma, anxiety, burnout, or feeling stuck

• Couples & polycules navigating communication, trust, desire, and conflict

• LGBTQIA+ and kink communities seeking non-judgmental, knowledgeable care

• Neurodivergent adults, including people with ADHD or autism (diagnosed or not), learning to work with their brains instead of against them
