Music Therapy in Holladay, UT

Hello, and thank you for considering therapy as a step towards personal growth and well-being. You know yourself best, and I will meet you exactly where you are. I understand the importance of being heard and supported. Everyone has their own unique journey and therefore I am committed to provide a safe space for you to create a path that uniquely fits you and your needs. I approach therapy with empathy, cultural competence and commitment to creating a collaborative and affirming environment.

My approach is client-centered and culturally appropriate mental health services for individuals in a safe and therapeutic setting. I promote self-determination, explore strengths and resources, and advocate for improved well-being for all clients. As a therapist, social worker, and a board-certified music therapist, I can include creative therapy modalities as a part of a client’s experience if so desired.

Individuals seeking help from Golden Steps recovery are adults suffering from substance use disorders. At Golden Steps Recovery, we believe that addiction is a symptom of underlying issues. These underlying issues could be marital related, infidelity, depression, anxiety, trauma, etc. Individuals seeking treatment are in need of connection with other individuals going through similar problems, making it easier to become emotionally vulnerable. Goals for the individual would be to learn healthy coping skills to deal with life, become 100% abstinent from substances and to gain healthy and positive relationships in recovery.

I like to come at therapy kind of like I would a drummer at a jam session. I'm there to find a groove with another voice. I want to communicate with you and help you to open up and learn to express yourself. We will seek understanding first and then we will find a way to encourage healing and growth that is unique to you and builds a stronger identity. I am strengths-based and I like to find existing skills to help a client build a new way of thinking and interacting with their body. This is also a very effective way of beginning the process of healing symptoms of PTSD in conjunction with other evidence based trauma treatments.

Promoting a holistic approach, I use different modalities that can aid in relaxing the body and mind to decrease stress and increase calm, peace and confidence. We will explore, re-discover and if necessary re-create an authentic, strong sense of self; to tap into your unique strengths and talents that make you, uniquely you.

I came to Woodhaven with a wealth of life experience in both the arts and human services. Working as a professional musician for many years connected me to some of the most vulnerable populations including the aging, chronically ill and those experiencing grief and sadness. I learned that creativity and healing are intimately linked and you invariably need one to pursue the other. My unique path has given me valuable insight into the human experience, which is something that we all share. I am particularly interested in the innate ability we all have to strive towards hope and healing.

The healing process of therapy can reduce suffering & facilitate further discovery of one's authentic self. Developing self-awareness, digging to the roots of personal problems, making lasting & powerful changes, and finding meaning & richness in your life is a sacred and empowering process that I am so honoured to be a part of. The approach I use is effective for depression, anxiety, issues of trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and connection with yourself and others.

I enjoy working with clients from various backgrounds and age ranges! I enjoy cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, expressive art approaches, and mindfulness. Initially, I will schedule a 15-minute consultation with potential clients. I am interested in hearing about a client’s previous experience or inexperience working with a therapist. I will explain my process of therapy to potential clients, which is holistic with multifaceted, evidence-based therapeutic approaches.

I work with clients experiencing trauma, burnout, and life transitions like divorce. I love to use creativity as a therapeutic way to allow you to express yourself and to make sessions more fun, using art, music/singing, writing, and more. I work with all ages, and have solid experience with kids and teens as well. I use interventions including: CBT, DBT, ACT, ART, IFS, EFT solution focused therapy and Logotherapy. I enjoy working with young adults, adults in life transitions, adoptees, Individuals experiencing Grief, and people looking to heal and create positive change in their lives.

Healing from trauma is not easy. I don't believe sugarcoating how difficult this process may be, is beneficial to anyone. But you don't have to go through it alone.

I know picking the right therapist for this process may be difficult, so I encourage having a free phone consultation with me, to see if it feels like a good fit! I'm excited that you've begun this process of healing, and look forward to playing a role in your healing journey.
