Therapists in Cottonwood Heights, UT

Welcome to my practice! The world is changing in profound ways. I am here to help you navigate these new realities in your family, work and love relationships. My therapy style with both couples and individuals is warm, collaborative and nurturing. For couples, I will help guide you out of distress and back to loving connection, paying close attention to emotional intimacy, differences in sexual desire, chronic fighting, communication breakdowns and infidelity/betrayals. For individuals, I will help you find your way back from depression, anxiety, grief and relationship challenges. Let me help you grow and flourish.

I understand that life can be challenging, and it's normal to feel overwhelmed at times. I'm dedicated to helping my clients achieve greater self-awareness and realize their full potential. My approach centers on understanding the factors that impact mental health and gaining a deeper insight into how thoughts and beliefs shape behavior. You're not alone in this journey. Together, we can work towards creating a healthier and happier version of yourself.

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “How did I get here?” Sometimes life feels hard, overwhelming, and chaotic. Maybe you just don’t know where to start or you feel lost. Maybe you’re embarrassed that you can’t handle things on your own or like you don’t know who to ask for help. Perhaps you're going through a rough patch or you're looking to improve your relationships with friends, family, or partner. Or, maybe your child is struggling with anger, sadness, or anxiety.

Welcome! I’m Meg, an LCSW with a passion for helping kids and teens grow towards their most fulfilled, secure, and authentic selves. Growing up is hard for everyone, but I’ve found that many of the youth that come to see me have had a harder time than most finding a consistent feeling of safety and belonging in the world. Much of my experience has come from working with those who identify as neurodivergent or LGBTQ+, those diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, or other disabilities, those who have experienced developmental/complex trauma, and those struggling with anxiety, attachment, or self-image.

I strive to create brave, affirming spaces free of shame for clients to design authentic lives and learn tools that deepen connections in relationships. I work from several evidence-based & trauma-informed therapy models and take a non-pathological approach. Together, we will look for experiences that have created patterns & explore how you have learned to connect with others. We will utilize somatic work, such as EMDR & Expressive Art, to learn how your body responds to life experiences & create more awareness of your subconscious. And we will apply mindfulness & coping skills to practice self-compassion, acceptance, & empowerment.

Relationships are one of the most important things in life. Whether that be with a partner, spouse, parent, child or other family member. We understand that strengthening and maintaining those relationships is at the top or your list. It’s at the top of our list too! Change is possible if you have a desire to learn and apply the skills and knowledge you will acquire through participating in therapy.

We all need support, life brings planed and unexpected change, transitions and requited growth. My clients may feel the pressure of perfectionism, feeling not-good-enough or second guessing themselves, feeling stuck in life. They may have physical or emotional pain and a big stress overload. Often feeling pulled in too many directions, with too many responsibilities, caring for too many projects or people. They can feel lost or adrift, that life is not progressing or as meaningful or happy as they had hoped. Grief & loss build up & worry about the ability to change can immobilize so they often feel stuck & afraid in life.

I view therapy as a collaborative exploration of your strengths and the stories that shape your life. Art, games, and storytelling are tools I often use to facilitate healing and self-discovery. But what does healing look like? I believe that's up to YOU - and it's my mission to help you discover and implement those positive changes that build a more fulfilling present, and hopeful future.

We are an inclusive, somatic, neurodiverse, trauma informed, and sensitive therapy practice nestled in the Liberty Wells area of Salt Lake City, Utah working with couples, adolescents, and adults.
