Therapists in Kaysville, UT

Sometimes the roller coaster ride of life derails us and we need help. Having experienced many unexpected turns and a few derailments in my own life I'm ideally suited to help people find solutions and hope even when all they are feeling is despair. I would love the opportunity to help you with whatever circumstance you find yourself in whether it be problems in your personal life, marriage, parenting, addictions or mental illness. I feel passionate about helping people get on track so they can have a happy and meaningful life.

Asking for help can be tough, but it shouldn't be scary. It's not overreacting to ask for what you want and need - but it can be hard. Often, we are desperate for change but aren't sure what to do or how to get there. If you are dealing with the struggles of parenting, emptiness in your relationship, or find yourself in need of healing, I can help. I specialize in helping people navigate the stress, anxiety, and sadness of life to find peace, joy and meaningful connection.

Life is hard, but it is not hopeless. There are many circumstances we would not choose to be part of our lives. These circumstances may even limit our choices. I have learned that it doesn't really matter if these limiting circumstances were brought on by yourself or others, if they were intentional or unintentional consequences of past or present behaviors, or if they are randomly introduced. Regardless, they are absolutely frustrating, painful, and time consuming. I am honored to work with individuals and families who are seeking professional support in these times.

ICT works with a very diverse population, meeting them where they are to help them become their best selves. Empathy and compassion are central for clients to explore, heal and grow. We work with people who have depression, anxiety, relationship issues, substance abuse, and more. Heidi Riddle, LCSW, SAP acts as Executive Director and Shana Hubbs, LCSW is the Clinical Director. All clinicians are highly trained to provide substance abuse, domestic violence, and mental health therapy.

Currently Accepting New Clients. I am trained and experienced in working with a wide range of mental health issues. I have worked with individuals of all ages. These areas include individual, couples/marriage, and family therapy with a focus on the system as a whole to create a strong support system in order to provide optimal success for those involved. Therapy is done at the pace of the client/couple/family to create a comfortable, friendly healing environment.

In my 40 years of clinical experience I have enjoyed helping clients turn their conflictual interactions into empowering opportunities for growth and success. I use a client-centered approach to help individuals resolve concerns and meet their goals. You will see that my commitment to helping and healing shines through in the compassion and creativity I use to assist clients in establishing healthy coping skills, challenging limiting beliefs, increasing a sense of self-worth, and feeling empowered to make changes.

I understand the complexities of life and relationships and how hard it can be to navigate. It can feel overwhelming and even helpless at times. I approach life and therapy with a wide lens. I like to take a holistic approach to mental health and I understand that our mental, physical and spiritual parts are intertwined. As humans we are made to feel emotions. I don’t view life or therapy as a process of learning to avoid difficult or uncomfortable feelings or a process of perfection. I view it as a process of discovery, acceptance, growth, and understanding.

I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Therapeutic Recreation from Brigham Young University and a Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix. I have been a director over substance abuse and mental health programs, working with a variety of clients. I am experienced in adult and adolescent addiction, depression, anxiety, PTSD, interpersonal and relationship issues, personality disorders, and victim issues stemming from all areas of abuse; as well as additional training in trauma and domestic violence.

I work with children, teens, and adults. Much of my clinical works focuses more on helping the person, not on giving a label. Hope and trust are crucial in working with a therapist. Finding the right fit, the right type of experience, and the right connection is what builds this hope.
