Therapists in Utah

Difficult life experiences resulted in times when I felt stuck. I was riddled with shame and guilt, and crippled with worry and fear. Then, I allowed myself to be vulnerable and met with a therapist. I had a profound experience in therapy. It was healing and helped me immensely. This led me to a lifelong calling to be of service. That is why I am here. I wish to be of service to you in your journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

I am a therapist that loves to think creatively and learn about different points of view. In my personal life I get to play the parts of brother, son, husband, father, artist, friend, and student. I find joy in exploring the mountains and being with my wife and four kids. The best part of my job is getting to know people and helping them kindle their own growth and fulfillment. In my career I have had three years of work in an inpatient adolescent treatment center as well as seven years in an outpatient young-adult program where I was able to serve as a Therapist and Clinical Director, while running my own outpatient practice.

I am accepting new clients and offer Online Counseling via Telehealth. I've provided over 10,000 hours of therapy and like Confucius said, "Choose a job you love, and you will never work a day in your life." I managed LDS Family Services for 13 years and loved directing the 12-step Addiction Recovery Program in Michigan, New York and Pennsylvania. I've been recruited by multiple residential treatment centers, a hospital, a skilled nursing facility, and by an IOP program assessing and treating substance abuse and domestic violence.

As a growing expert in trauma, mindfulness, and body-mind bridging across the lifespan, I will strive to assist you with your concerns. My approach is light-hearted and evidence informed.

The best way to contact me is via email. I work with adolescents and young adults ages 13-40 experiencing anxiety, depression, and troubled relationships. I help individuals learn skills that help them regulate emotions in order to improve social relationships and daily function. My approach is a relational style of conversation to help individuals feel safe and willing to share about personal struggles. We then work together to increase insight and self-awareness through identifying negative behavioral patterns and building from innate strengths which helps one’s ability to make changes that improve their overall quality of life.

I work with young adults, families, and couples helping them to shed light on themselves and the systems of which they are a part. I have worked predominately with clients experiencing symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, bipolar, addictive disorders, and personality disorders. I have a background in wilderness therapy and experiential treatment and love to introduce creative, alternative modes of expression to my clients, including yoga movement, narrative, and outdoor based therapies (walk and talk). By the end of our first session, most of my clients feel relieved and hopeful for their next steps.

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.

Do you or your child feel stressed out by the basic responsibilities of daily life? Or feel overwhelmed by strong sensory input? Or feel emotions deeply in both positive and negative ways?

I am passionate about helping helping adults & kids who deal with emotional & sensory sensitivity. In both adults and children feeling overwhelmed can result in symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD and aggression. I love helping adults and kids build stronger esteem and connection with themselves and each other.
