Therapists in Garden City, 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 approach therapy with a nonjudgmental perspective and a curiosity to understand the unique experiences leading clients to therapy. I believe a strong, genuine connection and collaboration between therapist and client can not only be an opportunity to improve coping skills and process through trauma and other difficulties, but also a catalyst to improving access to experiences of joy and contentment in life. I support clients with their therapy goals whether returning or starting for the first time. Therapy is often a brave journey of exploring the parts of ourselves that we might avoid… feeling scared, sad, angry, confused.

As human beings, we all have an innate desire to give and receive love, as well as to feel a sense of belonging. When these basic needs are not met, we can experience a feeling of being lost and disconnected from the world around us. However, we have the power to overcome these challenges. By acknowledging that we are not alone in our struggles and by taking conscious steps towards leading an authentic and fulfilling life, we can restore our sense of purpose and inner peace. No matter how difficult our circumstances may seem, there is always hope for a brighter tomorrow.

My clients have described me as kind, authentic, and warm. I prioritize creating an emotionally safe environment to investigate internal conflict and facilitate self love and acceptance. I help clients to understand their emotions on a deeper level giving them the ability to move forward in life with new clarity and confidence.

If you are struggling with feeling alone, unsupported or disconnected from yourself and others, I am so glad you are here.

Few of us get through this life without experiencing some trauma. Yet we all have the capacity to experience post-traumatic growth with the help of therapist whose role is to remove barriers that prevent us from moving past our past. When clients leave my office they have improved capacity for facing life head-on. Finding the right therapist is about “fit,” which is about feeling affirmed and validated for who you are.

Take a breath... Just s l o w d o w n for a second- You made it this far, which takes courage. Good for you. That you took the step to come looking for a therapist means that some part of you heard it when your friend said they're worried about you, or when your partner said they think it's time the two of you found someone to talk to. It means there have just been too many days where you felt like an observer in your life or like this was the day you would crack under the pressure of holding yourself together. It means you're ready to build a life that feels more rich, full, and meaningful; a life not driven by conflict or fear.

Living with ADHD can be like having a supercharged brain in a slow-paced world. It's filled with brilliant ideas, unstoppable energy, and boundless creativity.

Together, we'll explore strategies tailored to your unique brain, turning perceived weaknesses into your greatest strengths.

Whether you feel like you’re struggling with handling your emotions, experiencing contention, have feelings of being stuck, or if you just want to see change in your life, a fulfilling path is possible for you. My goal is to make therapy a safe place where closeness, trust, joy, fulfillment, and authenticity can be built in the way you need it.

Our hearts long for authentic connection to ourselves and others - and the sense of aliveness that results from being truly ourselves as we relate. Sometimes, however, reactive patterns arise and displace our competent adult functioning with unregulated emotional states such as anxiety, anger, insecurity, or depression. Often there is no context or overt memory associated with such experiences, which are thought to have their roots in insufficient neural organization. Our neural organization, as it turns out, can adapt and change, giving us access to more and more emotional freedom and contentment.

I can fluently provide counseling in English & Spanish. I like using a non-pathological and teamwork approach where the clients are the experts of their own lives. I specialize in working with individuals, families, couples, and children, focusing on helping them reach their desired goals. To do so, I use the following evidence-based perspectives: CBT, DBT, EMDR, Gottman (Couples), Play Therapy, and Mindfulness. I have noticed that clients seek more self-improvement after graduating from our therapy work. We would be a great fit if you are highly motivated to do the job.

Life can be difficult, presenting us with unanticipated obstacles that sometimes challenge our capacities to cope. Your decision to seek out a therapist is a courageous one and represents a significant personal step forward. I see therapy as a collaborative process to meet individuals where they are, so as to explore together what they want to get out of the therapeutic experience.
