Relationship Issues Therapists in 84107

I have a down-to-earth, non-judgmental approach to therapy. My hope is to put people at ease when they are working through issues that are deeply personal and difficult. I'm comfortable talking about sexuality, drug use, abuse, suicidal ideation, relationship issues, and conflicts with religion, etc. I like to help people increase awareness of themselves and others and to increase their ability to connect to what is important to them. I use EMDR, Sand Tray Therapy, and DBT to support clients connecting to their emotions, learning from experiences, and creating a life worth living.

Do you struggle with relationship challenges, your ability to connect with your partner, or resolve conflicts? Do you feel overwhelmed or lost by the complexities of navigating a relationship with diminished desire, infidelity, or sexual concerns? Have you wondered if your romantic life could be more fulfilling? More than ever, couples and adults feel uncertain about overcoming relationship hurdles, be it emotional disconnects or communication breakdowns. Adults, both men and women, are looking for support.

My ultimate hope is to help you feel empowered to live authentically and find meaning and purpose as you do. I strive to create a safe therapeutic environment where we can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement. Many of my clients are navigating past traumas, current life and relationship challenges, and various mental health conditions. I love to help clients find a path forward when they are feeling stuck in shame, fear, rumination, etc. I try to adapt my approach to each individual I see, let's find what works for you!

No matter how capable and resilient we are, at times we are faced with challenges that require professional help. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of therapy. I offer a client-centered, strength based approach to therapy. I help clients identify their thinking errors and behavior patterns that are causing harm and standing in the way of them accomplishing their goals. I have experience working with people who face depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, ADHD and other issues. I currently work with adult clients (18 yrs old and up).

I help adults struggling with anger, trauma, substance abuse, relationship issues, depression, and anxiety. I believe in individualized care and will work with you to identify the best therapeutic direction. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I approach therapy with an understanding that each person’s path to wellness is unique. I value building a safe, curious, and nonjudgmental relationship to encourage vulnerability and growth.

My PhD training as a counseling psychologist affords me flexibility to support multiple life concerns, and at the root of my work is the belief that relationships are capable of healing. I build strong alliances with those whom I serve in order to best meet client directed goals and foster sustained change. I adhere to evidence-based practices in psychology, and research evidence strongly supports the importance of building a strong therapeutic alliance. Everyone has a unique lens through which they see the world and I strive to see the world as my clients do to provide the best care.

Anxiety, depression, or even intense stress can often get in the way of living the life we are meant to live. I begin by assisting you in gaining a sense of empowerment and clear plan to move toward or return to your true self. I provide space for you to break down self-destructive thought and behavioral patterns often caused by a history of trauma, abuse, or loss. You soon begin living your potential with improved body, mind, and soul connection. In couples therapy, I assist in healing the partnership by regaining connection and establishing shared meaning for more consistent positive interactions and fulfilling relationship.

My therapeutic practices are trauma-informed, emotion-focused, and relational. This means that I enjoy getting to know you, the client, through your unique experiences as a human. Together we can navigate your emotions, relationships, and life experiences to support your emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. My tools as a therapist are based on the foundations of attachment theory, feminist multicultural counseling, and insight-oriented counseling (meaning you know yourself best). I specialize in anxiety, depression, domestic violence, abuse cycles, codependency, emotional regulation, complex trauma, shadow work, and more.

Welcome! I am an expert at helping couples work through relationship problems. If you've been hurt by an affair, you don't feel safe to share your true feelings with your partner, you seem to fight all the time, or can't seem to get on the same page, I can help. My therapy is domestic violence and trauma-informed (I thoroughly and continually assess for safety, I pay attention to how your body feels in session, and I help you to work through past trauma), emotionally-focused (I help you to have a different emotional experience with each other in-session), and culturally-sensitive (I help you to find harmony in your differences).

Hi, I'm Valeria! I'm a recent graduate from the University of Utah's Social Work Program. I have worked in social work since 2020 and am passionate about supporting individuals on their unique journeys, which led me to pursue the mental health field.

Do you ever feel lost? Stuck? Seeing the same patterns in your life that can’t seem to change? Everyone is on such a unique and beautiful journey and I cherish the time and work spent in therapy in order to get the results you’re looking for. I strongly value the client-therapist relationship where I want you to always feel safe and heard while also being challenged to see and follow a possible new direction.

Mental health is something that I have always been passionate about. I believe that healing comes in seasons, and finding a way to navigate down that path to healing can feel lonely and overwhelming. I have experienced these types of seasons personally, and because of this, I am passionate about helping others feel whole again.

Therapy should be a comfortable experience where you feel safe and accepted as you are. It isn’t always easy to share your feelings or experiences, and you deserve an environment where you feel you can speak freely and honestly. I work with adults and teenagers experiencing a variety of issues, including: depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, childhood trauma, self-harming behaviors, relationship difficulty, family dynamics, substance abuse, LGBTQIA+ support, and many more. I want every client to gain more understanding of themselves. A more complete understanding of yourself comes with a more complete understanding of how to cope.

Therapy can be a daunting thing to start, but I'm here to assist you in creating something that works for you! I view our relationship as a core pillar in this process and aim to provide compassion, understanding, and connection so you feel safe and understood. You are the driver choosing our destination and I'm the one with the road map directing how we get there!

Whether you are an individual navigating an unwanted behavior, be that compulsive pornography use, an affair, or buying sex, or you are one navigating the physical, emotional or spiritual fallout of a relationship where this unwanted behavior exists. I specialize in working with individuals and couples to help support them in creating deeper intimacy and connection within themselves and with each other. I am sensitive to and work to restore healing around the emotional, relational, spiritual, and cultural aspects of addiction and betrayal trauma. I integrate the neuroscience of trauma, abuse, and addiction to create lasting healing.

Life is often full of twists and turns. Many people struggle with what life can bring and the negative emotional and behavioral responses that follow. My goals and passion are to bring healing to those struggling with stressful experiences. My focus is healing the whole person. I help my clients find their path and create intention and passion in their lives. I have over twenty six years of experience helping clients with addiction, depression, anxiety, PTSD and internal conflicts. I can offer ART and EMDR. I know that treatment must be individualized to treat specific needs. I accept insurance and cash pay.

I love being a therapist and consider working with individuals an honor, not just a job. I am passionate about helping individuals improve their present situation, process their past, and enjoy better mental health. I create my sessions around the belief that my clients are the experts in their experiences. I have experience and enjoy working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, trauma, and neurodivergent diagnoses, such as ADHD and autism (ASD). I am LGBTQIA+ affirming.
