LDS Therapists in Provo, UT

I believe humans are wired for connection and meaning and that most of our struggles in life are intimately tied to how we experience relationships with others or how we find purpose. I have worked for 12+ years in various capacities with individuals, couples, and families who have struggled with myriad issues, including anxiety, depression, marital distress and infidelity, sexual and religious identity conflicts, addiction, shame, poor coping mechanisms, and more. My focus is to guide clients in identifying patterns in their lives and relationships that are causing distress or keeping them from living in harmony with their goals.

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 manged 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.

The majority of men and women experience and anxiety during their lifetimes. While it may be challenging to feel overwhelmed and vulnerable, it is also exciting to achieve true growth and change. During therapy, we can pinpoint what may be causing your distress and identify the pathway toward relief. The goal of counseling is to feel less distress and more self-reliance in our ability to cope with the stresses and unforeseen challenges life brings. For the majority of my clients, after just one session they begin learning the skills needed to help themselves regain hope and cultivate confidence.

I work with individuals, couples, and families. I work with addiction, marital issues, depression and anxiety, oppositional defiant disorder in teens, and trauma.

Therapy is akin to walking on sacred ground. I am passionate about helping clients achieve personal wholeness and the loving connections that they long for.

I provide a safe, friendly, encouraging and active counseling environment for us to explore what is needed to help you have the best relationships possible. As founder of "The Marital Intimacy Institute," I look forward to working with you online or in person at my Utah office.

I strive to provide every client with a validating space as they gain the needed skills to empower themselves, and I work with a variety of concerns, including anxiety, mindful eating, and healing from relationship abuse. I have a strong passion for pregnancy/postpartum issues. During my previous work in community mental health, I noticed how many women with struggles like miscarriage, infertility, and postpartum depression suffered in silence. This, coupled with my own experience with pregnancy loss, lead me to get additional training through PSI Utah to help women climb out of the darkness and get the support they need to heal.

Hello, I'm Caroline with 20/20 Counseling Center: Clear Vision Treatment and Recovery. 20/20 means perfect vision.

These are values that you can achieve if you put the effort in.

“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it [...] Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.” - Brene Brown. I believe people have strength greater than they realize to heal & change. I would love to help you become “unstuck” through using your own values & guiding principles.

I believe psychotherapy is the art of helping others to find inner peace and reach personal goals. Sadness, anxiety, anger and other non-peaceful feelings often result from trauma or difficult life events. How to deal with these feelings? It's very helpful to talk it over with, and get guidance from, someone who has insight and understanding -- and psychotherapy skills. This is what I consider to be my mission, to guide you toward resolving difficult situations and to improve your personal and relationship satisfaction -- and, to increase self-esteem, inner peace, confidence, and happiness.

On your journey through life, there are many ups and downs. Wherever you are on your journey, something has led you to my profile today.

You can take the first step towards greater peace of mind today.

We specialize in working with individuals learning to cope with symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, personality related issues, and relationship difficulties. First Choice Healing therapists focus on the individual needs of each client and focus on the trusting relationship which is essential to any part of the therapeutic process.

I personally believe our childhood traumas continue to affect us today as adults. When you come into my office you can see this for yourself when you begin your work. As we focus on your triggers as you experience them today they connect to your past. These triggers can include feelings of deep sadness, feeling overwhelmed, or responding with anger. The past is resolved and triggers diminish or go away theoretically. I have personally watched this happen for others. A movement to being present and at peace is what you can have. You can accomplish your goals and I am hear to help you on the way.

Hi! I’m Marki and I want to be your new therapist! I’m kind, compassionate, and sassy. If that sounds like your kind of therapist then read on my friend. I’ve found that everyone wants to belong to something. Many of us spend years searching for what that is without realizing it already exists. I’m passionate about helping people find where they belong and how to use that to fulfill their purpose in life. I love helping others to be vulnerable and working through shame (it sucks, but you gotta do it). I believe it’s vital to implement self compassion in your life as well as introducing productive change that YOU are in charge of.

The people that I would love to help support in their therapy journey would be people who are ready to focus in removing the unhealthy situations and replacing them with healthy ones. It is so important to want change!
