Kitten Burch

Kitten Burch

Therapist

Virtual • Missouri


If you're carrying trauma, living with ADHD, autism, anxiety, or OCD, or just need someone to help you stay accountable, I could be your person. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri, and I recently started a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. I have lived experience with many things, so I understand trauma, and I'm open about my own mental health to help end the stigma around talking about it. In my wheelhouse is working with individuals, families, and children ages 6 and up. A little about me: yes, my name is really Kitten. I'm a mom to a daughter on the autism spectrum and to three dachshunds with larger-than-life personalities.

My name is Teerah, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma work with adolescents, teens, and young adults. I have worked with clients of all ages and believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you can finally stop filtering yourself. I’m very down to earth, easy to talk to, and genuinely believe nothing is “too much” to bring into session. Whether you are dealing with trauma, anxiety, relationship stress, or just feeling emotionally stuck, my goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and a little less alone in it all.
