Therapists in Richfield, UT

Distressing and traumatic experiences can leave us feeling confused, alone and emotionally disconnected. As a trauma informed therapist I assist individuals in confronting, making sense of and resolving past, traumatic experiences. I help my clients connect present day unhelpful behaviors, beliefs and attitudes to unresolved, lived experiences. I have 15 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents and adults. My areas of expertise include: trauma, anxiety and depressive disorders, maternal mental health (i.e. postpartum depression), grief and loss and issues of self-esteem.

By the end of each appointment with me, I want you to feel like you’ve been heard and that you’ve gained something valuable, whether that’s new coping skills or an improved sense of peace or strength. Your trauma is stored in your nervous system, so I utilize therapies like EMDR to work to relieve you of your burden. My training is in grief and trauma-related symptoms like anxiety, depression, PTSD, self-harm, and suicidality. I provide trauma-focused therapy to support you as we work together to reach your goals.
