Therapists in Sugar House, Salt Lake City, UT

I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, and depression. I am trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing) for large-scale or small-scale trauma. I use a holistic approach, focusing on the mind+body connection. I dip into other therapeutic modalities, depending on what is relevant to you.

V Frankl: “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” My passion is helping disrupt the habitual autopilot of life in order to gain a sense of resiliency, purpose, and vitality. When experiencing burnout, acute/chronic stress, trauma, and/or chronic pain I work with you to restore balance in your life by processing stressors, trauma/triggers, and building in resources to increase resilience in the face of these barriers. This is achieved by working as a team: You are the expert of you and I bring the expertise of psychology.

Loss is hard. Change is hard. Relationships are hard. I offer a warm, safe, collaborative space to assist you on needs and goals, improve relationships, heal abuse and trauma, and go from surviving to thriving. Even though healing is hard it can also be an exciting, playful, and soul expanding journey! I am trauma trained and informed (ART, EMDR, Flash method, IFS) and approach therapy from an integrative and experiential standpoint. “If we climb high enough, we will reach a height from which tragedy ceases to look tragic.” (Yalom).

Our hearts long for authentic connection to ourselves and others - and the sense of aliveness that results from being truly ourselves as we relate. Sometimes, however, reactive patterns arise and displace our competent adult functioning with unregulated emotional states such as anxiety, anger, insecurity, or depression. Often there is no context or overt memory associated with such experiences, which are thought to have their roots in insufficient neural organization. Our neural organization, as it turns out, can adapt and change, giving us access to more and more emotional freedom and contentment.

I draw upon several modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory and EMDR. I believe that providing therapy is a privilege, and comes with responsibilities that must be respected. It is essential that clinicians are committed to doing their own inner work. Meditation, mindfulness and personal growth are at the core of everything I do. It is these practices that drove me to this field, and continue to guide me today.

I've worked with clients from all walks of life, primarily teens, and young adults. My current focus utilizes aspects of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I'm EMDR trained and Gottman level 1 certified . With a somatic lens and trauma informed approach I enjoy working with clients experiencing life transitions, anxiety, depression, sexuality, relationship issues, and trauma.

I offer services via telehealth, and have found success with my clients in utilizing EMDR and an IFS approach to work through traumas. I also work with “late-in-life” diagnoses of Autism. As an individual who masked her autistic traits until age 30, I have a passion for helping people understand themselves and how their brain works, and accepting the whole self. Kinstsugi is a Japanese art form of repairing broken pottery. When an item has been broken or shattered it is mended with a type of glue infused with powdered gold.

I believe that each person has the innate ability to overcome life's challenging obstacles. I'm committed to supporting each client and often times their family members through their journey. I have extensive experience working with complex/developmental trauma, PTSD/TBI, attachment disorders, dissociative identity disorders, personality disorders, suicide ideation/intervention/attempt, LGBTQ issues, Veteran specific services and place an emphasis on using the most advanced evidenced based modalities in my practice with clients.

Are you worried about your teen? Are they acting withdrawn or angry? Are their grades dropping? Are they excluded from their peer group or hanging out with peers that concern you? I will help you achieve your goal of restoring happiness and inspiration to your child's life. If your teen needs support with recovery from prolonged sadness, constant worrying, low self-esteem, drug abuse, sexual assault, self injury or family conflict, counseling can help.

If you are being completely honest with yourself, are you happy with your life? That question can bring up a lot of thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. Life can be very challenging, and many people struggle to cope. The good news is you do not have to do it alone.

Has traditional talk therapy not given you the results for long-lasting changes you wanted? Are you tired of symptom management, while never feeling like you’re getting to the root of your issues? You’re not alone and I can help. I work with adults who are looking to find meaning and purpose again in life after experiencing life challenges and traumas including faith transitions, single and complex trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, women’s issues, anxiety and depression. My therapeutic approach is addressing the whole individual, mind and body to create real growth and healing.

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.

Online Telehealth Therapy... I enjoy various approaches to mental health and self-care. I enjoy many pints of ice-cream, bath bombs, a good book, spending time outside, and working out. Most importantly I believe we owe it ourselves, to make sure we are being taken care of and nourished, too, through our own mental health care. My approach to treatment is tailored to fit each person’s specific goals and needs, and I provide a comfortable and safe space for people to express themselves and work through their therapeutic experience.

I am passionate about helping individuals bounce back from traumatic experiences. It is common to feel broken, to feel a shadow of who you once were after painful life experiences. The healing journey is one of the most courageous adventures we can embark on. I walk with you into those dark places, offering sensitivity and kindness, helping you lean into healing connection. Among other issues, I specialize in helping individuals explore issues related to grief, depression and anxiety, gender and sexual orientation identities, and spiritual emergence/y.

I enjoy working with people from all walks of life, learning their stories, and helping guide them towards their own goals. I think that anyone can benefit from therapy, and I especially enjoy working with people who have identified a different future for themselves, one with less pain or anxiety or that heavy depression, less trauma shadowing them, less pressure to look a certain way, believe a certain way, love a certain way, or be a certain way. I love working with clients to find a door, something to open towards change and growth and their own version of peace, whatever that might mean to them.

Aubrey is committed and dedicated to restoring the connections with ourselves and with our loved ones. While conflict is a normal process of our everyday lives, it causes extreme dysfunction when not handled with the care, compassion, and the proper attunement that so much of us deserve. “We don’t get harmony when everybody sings the same note. Only notes that are different can harmonize. The same is true with people.”
