I offer virtual therapy for people suffering with symptoms of trauma, major depression, severe anxiety, ADHD, autism, grief, intellectual disabilities, behavioral disorders, women’s issues, men’s issues, relationship, marital, parenting issues, divorce, as well as phase of life transitions. I have also worked with victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and individuals and families dealing with substance abuse/addiction issues. I am very comfortable with people of all gender identities, including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning, queer, intersex, asexual, pansexual, and Allies (LGBTQIA+).

Life doesn't always go as smoothly as we would like. Sometimes it feels impossible and hopeless to get through. Sometimes it seems things will never get better. We all have times where life doesn't go as planned and it seems like the darkness will never end.

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.

Who could you be if you were able to manage your emotions skillfully and without self-criticism? The fact that you are reading these words right now tells me you’re on the path toward discovering the answer to that question. It takes strength to seek support and I am so happy you have found yourself here. I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma/PTSD.

We offer a wide range of clinical specializations to help you make the changes you are seeking. We have been trained and are prepared to help you address a wide variety of individual and relational issues, whether they involve individual mental health or marital/family problems. Our goal is to help you learn the skills necessary to cope with any issues you are dealing with and have intimate and fulfilling relationships. Change is possible if you have a desire to learn and apply the skills and knowledge you will acquire through participating in therapy.

Have you ever felt ashamed? Ever felt like others don’t understand you, but say they do? Those have been my own experiences and have led me to work with people in recovery and their families, survivors of domestic violence/abuse, minority communities and teens. I come from a multi-cultural family with an immigrant parent which has both enriched my life and created unique struggles for me. These experiences, however, have helped me empathize with a wide variety of people and situations. My goals are to support my clients as they navigate their struggles and find hope and strength within themselves.

I love working with clients (especially children, adolescents, and families!) from diverse backgrounds who are looking to find answers and solve any issues they may be struggling with. I am passionate about my work and believe in radical acceptance of all people. I am an LGBTQ+ affirmative psychologist. As a mother of five children, I understand many of the issues that families face and I strive to be a caring, upfront, and empathic psychologist who helps clients work toward achieving their goals. I also offer psychological testing.

Celeste Wiggins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). She holds a Master's Degree in Social Work from the University of Utah. She has worked in forensic, school-based, and private practice settings regarding issues of trauma, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, addiction, psychosis, autism spectrum related issues, and ADHD.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2019, and I have experience supporting young adults and adults with concerns such as addictions, substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship/ family issues, and anger management. My ideal client would like to resolve these issues by empowering themselves to learn how to counter negative thoughts, regulate emotions, tolerate moments of distress, communicate effectively, and mindfully stay within the present moment. My ideal client would like to learn these skills in order to manifest their ideal life and be the best version of themselves.

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.

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.

My practice is about creating and enhancing a meaningful life. Through a belief that our disturbances--about ourselves, others or life in general - lead us to the doorway of toward wholeness, we work together to unfold the seed of the solution from within the problems. Thus, I approach each client with a desire to follow and facilitate their unique healing process. Through deep compassion toward self, dreamwork and process work, I identify lesser conscious aspects of one's self, which we work together to bring into awareness. With this awareness one can find more meaning and a stronger purpose in life.

Perhaps you are experiencing a faith transition, relationship transition, or work transition that has you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed. Going through these changes can be challenging, and turning to friends and family may be difficult. If you are experiencing these or other challenges, and have decided it is time to make a change, you need someone committed, nonjudgmental, and experienced to support your efforts. I am passionate about helping people overcome challenges to achieve a full and happy life. Email is the best way to contact me.

My goal as a clinician is to develop a safe, honest, trusting relationship so that my clients can explore all parts of themselves without judgement. I use evidence based practices and draw on the therapeutic relationship to help my clients feel seen, heard, and understood in ways that can offer healing. My hope is to help my clients enjoy the healthy and nurturing relationships they are seeking, and to live a more whole, purposeful, and satisfying life. I work well with individuals and couples who are looking to get to the root of their challenges, and move past managing symptoms.

You are capable and it's easy to create superhuman expectations for yourself. But when you are a helper who is supposed to have it all together all of the time, you can become exhausted, burned out, depressed, isolated, numb, anxious, overwhelmed, reactive, resentful, and traumatized. Your sleep, job performance, and relationships can suffer. You might even experience compassion fatigue as you operate more and more in survival mode. But you are not alone. And you’re in the right place.

There are things in life that can lead us adrift, where we may feel that something is missing, have dissatisfaction with our life, or feel stuck in a situation that is draining and dysfunctional but do not know the way out. I’ve found the experiences of our developmental years, to often color the way we see the world, and can create patterns that hinder access to our true self, and thus, a full and conscious life. I believe that authenticity, resilience, and self-efficacy are crucial to living a satisfying life, and I want to help you move through the wounds that have kept you from getting there.

Are you tired of feeling stressed and anxious? Do you have a phobia, mental challenges or fear that is holding you back? Hypnotherapy can help. Many people struggle with emotional and behavioral challenges that can make it difficult to live their best lives. Hypnosis, cognitive behavioral therapy and NLP can help you to overcome these challenges and achieve your goals. These are modalities allow you to access your subconscious mind, where your beliefs and patterns of behavior are stored. By working with a qualified hypnotherapist, you can reprogram your subconscious mind to create positive change in your life.

I love working with all ages, ethnicities, cultures, and diversity. I have focused primarily work with teens and youth, but enjoy everyone. Therapy is a space for individuals to find their own story, the hidden pieces of themselves, and develop understanding. As long as clients come with the intention of healing, growth, and understanding, I'd love to be one to help.
