Our Story: Why We Do This Work
Safe Harbor Counseling began with a simple mission:
To offer real healing in a space where no one has to hide.
Founded by Michael Mason, M.Ed., LPC, NCC, a veteran, LGBTQ+ therapist, and father, Safe Harbor was created from the personal understanding of how hard it is to seek support when you've been judged, overlooked, or retraumatized.
“Therapy changed my life. I built Safe Harbor so you could have a space to experience the same transformation—without fear, shame, or pressure.”
— Michael Mason, Founder
We’ve grown from one person’s vision to a dedicated team of trauma-informed, identity-affirming clinicians helping people across Missouri reclaim their peace and purpose.
