Therapists in Layton, UT

Hello, My name Is Michelle Inauen and I am the owner of Collaborative Counseling LLC. I am originally from Texas and have been living in Utah since May 2017. I love the four seasons and all the activities for families. I feel privileged to help individuals, and couples with changing the way they handle stress and difficult situations. Robyn Urry Anderson LCSW is originally from Utah and has 14 years of experience working with families, co-occurring medical conditions, trauma, and transplantations.

My specialty is working with those struggling from symptoms relating to complex trauma/PTSD, Grief & Loss, self-harm/suicidal ideation, childood abuse/neglect, religious abuse, relationship/marital issues, neurodivergent and life transitions. In addition, if you are are LGBTQ+ or transitioning, I provide gender affirming psychotherapy for transgender and gender nonconforming clients. I can help you navigate the unique challenges/barriers you may be facing in Utah. I will proudly advocate for you and support your emotional well-being.

I find a significant importance in helping individuals of any kind identify their worth. Everyone deserves to feel and be their best selves. My goal is to help my clients instill the hope that they have the capability of getting to that point. Shame, guilt, negative self-talk, and trauma are some of the many barriers that prevent us from living to our full potential. When someone is ready and willing to add to their self-care tool belt, it provides an opportunity to heal from their adversities and strengthen their love for the self.

Having a therapist who is willing to sit with a client’s discomfort and uplift their spirit can make a world of difference. I work with children and adolescents to foster growth in being emotionally resilient and be able to live fulfilling lives. Therapy for children and adolescents should be both fun and helpful. I sprinkle games and relationship building activities throughout my sessions, so time spent is enjoyable. As your therapist, I will use evidence-based treatments to support your family’s natural strengths in creating the change you want.

Individual, Couple, Family, & Child Therapy. Effective therapy starts with effective assessment. The greater my understanding of the family challenges/presenting problem the more likely I will be able to help the family/couple/individual find greater success and happiness. I understand that clients are often feeling desperate and hopeless so my goal for a first session is to build hope and begin to offer researched based interventions and ideas that work! Short term, effective, enjoyable therapy services is my goal as a therapist. Most clients report after a first appointment that they feel at ease with my gentle, kind, and supportive approach.

Life is beautiful and we are capable of exploring all aspects of it: the good and the difficult. Both things are necessary to become a strong and better "us"! Though there is so much good, life also comes with unanticipated 'rocks in our backpack'. This can leave us confused, hurt, and feeling displaced. Effective therapy is about several factors: experience, client healing, a clear diagnosis, concise and appropriate goals, and the tools needed to effectively navigate difficulty along the journey of life. We love what we do and we are good at it! Visit us at GOLDWELLNESS.COM

I believe that feeling connected and safe are the first steps toward meaningful change. In my practice, I strive to provide a non-judgmental and supportive environment where individuals can explore things with freedom, develop a deeper understanding and love for themselves and find ways to live their lives in the direction of their chosen values. I enjoy working with teenagers and adults who experience a variety of mental health challenges, including anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, chronic shame, and issues related to racial and ethnic identity.

You’ve found that the aftermath of betrayal has left you with low self-worth. You worry that you can’t trust yourself, and and wonder if you really know who you are. Overall, you don’t feel like you are enough. I help with that. I help you regain your sense of self so that you can show up as the person you are. Whether you’ve created a habit of crossing your own boundaries, practice people pleasing, experienced infidelity, or any other forms of betrayal, you can be liberated from the hurt and feel peace.

Over the past 16+ years of full-time practice, I have developed a strong commitment to helping adults, children and teens heal from anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. Since completing my formal training in 2008, I settled in Utah, where I have worked extensively with adults suffering from trauma, depression, anxiety and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Regarding my work with children and teens, I have worked extensively with conditions like ADHD, Autism, learning problems, self-harm behaviors, and mood disturbance. A family-based treatment approach is very important, as the whole family needs to be involved.

Hello and welcome! I'm Tanner Taggart, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for integrating the therapeutic process with the serene beauty of nature. I believe in the transformative power of therapy and have found that holding sessions outdoors, with the calming backdrop of nature, can enhance the healing journey. This inspired me to specialize in Walk and Talk Therapy, an innovative therapeutic approach that combines the benefits of traditional therapy with the restorative elements of nature.

Does it feel like your thoughts are running away? Are you avoiding things in your daily life? Do you have challenges in your relationships? You don't have to continue to let mental health take over your life. Your challenges don't have to continue to seep into all your relationships. You can be in charge. It takes courage to show up for yourself and seek help. I am here to support you in your journey. I provide a warm and safe environment coupled with knowledge and skill. My clients learn how to implement strategies that help and learn insights that allow them move towards healthy mind, body, spirit, and relationships.

We all have moments in our lives when we feel stuck, disconnected, or out of balance. During this time of global uncertainty, reaching out for support is more important than ever. I strive to create an environment where individuals, couples and families feel supported and heard. My passion is working with those who are looking to explore the challenging interaction cycles that get in the way of feeling safe and connected.

The best part about being a therapist is seeing the positive emotional and physical responses my clients gain from therapy. I think of myself as a guide in helping people navigate challenges in their life. Everybody has challenges and obstacles they must face in their lifetime. But not one experience is the same. How we process our emotions, how and what we believe about ourselves and the world around us is as unique as we are. It’s an emotional fingerprint. I want to hear about the emotional fingerprints, both good and bad so I can better understand how to guide you away from the bad and onto a path of self-healing.

I believe we all have an inner wisdom calling to us, asking us to pay attention. Sometimes this shows up as anxiety, depression, pain, exhaustion, anger, relationship struggles, frustration, and fear. When these visitors appear, they can overwhelm our ability to cope with everyday life. Caught in the struggle, it can be difficult to find our way through, to listen and understand what this wisdom is trying to tell us. In our sessions, I offer non-judgmental attention, presence, creativity, and intuitive curiosity - creating a relationship that allows my clients to discover their innate ability to grow and find healing.

Being REAL, therapy is hard and challenging to face all the pain we try to avoid. Finding a therapist is usually the hardest part! Maybe you're struggling with the pain of loneliness or being controlled by overwhelming fears? Are you watching the relationships in your life and not sure why you feel so disconnected and misunderstood? Maybe you have experienced betrayal and trauma? I want you to feel safe to go deeper, stay in the emotions and gain more self awareness. I support faith transitions.
