A kink-aware therapist is a mental health professional who understands, respects, and encourages sexual exploration, desires, and fantasies.
Most of all, a kink-aware therapist just accepts you for who you are, as long as you are not harming yourself or others.
A kink-aware therapist is not only a therapist who respects BDSM, fetishes, and consensual non-monogamy. A kink-aware therapist is one who understands and fosters normalization of talking about sex and your specific desires, accepting differences while also helping you discover your desires.
A kink-aware therapist provides a safe, non-judgmental environment to discuss your lifestyle. A kink-aware therapist will not pathologize your sexual preferences or assume your interests are the source of unrelated mental health struggles.
