Untangling the Web of S*xual Addiction. Reclaiming Intimacy. Restoring Trust.

Specialties:
• S*xual Addiction
• S*x Positive Therapy
• LGBTQIA+ Affirming Care
• Women’s S*xual Trauma

Renowned practitioner Patrick Carnes once said:
“A person who never learned to trust confuses intensity with intimacy, obsession with care, and control with security.”

Healing begins when we gently begin separating those wires.

As a CSAT (Certified S*xual Addiction Therapist), Katelyn helps clients organize unhealthy coping patterns and create meaningful, sustainable change. Her work within the LGBTQIA+ community has been a beacon for individuals seeking acceptance, graciousness, and true healing.

Recovering from sexual trauma requires patience, persistence, and the ability to build organic trust. Katelyn’s therapeutic style embodies those qualities and clients quickly sense her genuine care and passion for their success.

If healing feels overwhelming, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Snowpocalypse check-in ❄️

If you’re coming out of the last week feeling a little off — you’re not alone.

A lot of people are saying the same thing:
tired but restless, unmotivated but ready to get out of the house, craving routine while also resisting it.

That’s actually very normal.

Being inside for days on end can throw off our internal rhythm more than we realize. Our bodies and brains adapt to stillness… and then struggle when it’s time to restart.

So if today feels slow, scattered, or emotionally foggy — nothing is “wrong” with you.

Take it one step at a time.
Ease back into your routine.
Give yourself a little grace as things thaw — both outside and inside.

We’re here, and we’re glad to be getting back to normal alongside you. 🤍

We truly appreciate your understanding and patience as we navigate these weather conditions together.

Please stay safe and take care. 💙

🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸

Today, we pause to recognize the extraordinary selflessness of the men and women who have served our country. Veterans embody courage not only in the moments of battle, but in the quiet strength it takes to return home and rebuild, to carry memories that shaped them, and to keep showing up for their families, their communities, and for us all.

Their sacrifices remind us what it means to give of oneself completely — to put others first in the name of freedom and unity.

From all of us at River City Counseling, we express our deepest gratitude to every veteran and their loved ones. Your resilience, bravery, and compassion continue to inspire us every day.

Thank you for your service. 💙❤️

Love doesn’t just disappear—it changes shape when our focus does.

In this clip, Jordan B. Peterson unpacks the idea of how to stop falling out of love. While genuine relational trauma repair involves far deeper and more layered work, this message touches on an important starting point: shifting perception.

When partners learn to redirect attention toward what they desire to see—kindness, effort, appreciation—instead of reinforcing only what’s wrong, the brain begins to rewire its filters. This phenomenon, known as frequency illusion, allows us to start noticing more of the good and less of the negative our minds have been conditioned to expect.

In therapy, this isn’t about ignoring pain—it’s about retraining awareness to make room for repair. Healing begins where intentional focus meets emotional safety.

At River City Counseling, every session is more than just an hour on the calendar—it’s an opportunity to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families as they rediscover hope, healing, and fulfillment.

We are humbled to play even a small role in changing the landscape and trajectory of lives in the River Valley. Each conversation, each breakthrough, and each step toward growth reminds us why we do this work: to help create more sustainable, thriving lives and relationships.

From marriages restored, to individuals finding strength, to families building deeper connections—we count it all as a privilege.

Thank you for trusting us with something as precious as your emotional health. It’s an honor to be a guide in your journey, and we remain deeply grateful to serve this incredible community we call home.
