Teletherapy for 84105

I offer virtual therapy for people suffering with symptoms of trauma, major depression, severe anxiety, ADHD, autism, grief, intellectual disabilities, behavioral disorders, women’s issues, men’s issues, relationship, marital, parenting issues, divorce, as well as phase of life transitions. I have also worked with victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and individuals and families dealing with substance abuse/addiction issues. I am very comfortable with people of all gender identities, including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning, queer, intersex, asexual, pansexual, and Allies (LGBTQIA+).

As a therapist I empower individuals to see their wholeness, to reclaim their sense of personal value, and to rebuild their lives after trauma and marginalization. Utilizing a variety of therapeutic interventions in conjunction with a great deal of empathy, I support individuals along their healing journey. I am always amazed at the resilience of the human spirit and am committed to providing the therapeutic space necessary for individuals such as yourself to heal and to create a life full of purpose and meaning. I have over 15 years of experience in providing professional mental health support to a wide variety of clientele.

I’m passionate about helping gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer clients in a variety of areas. I often help clients build and maintain healthy relationships, work through depression, stress, or anxiety, navigate relationships with less accepting family or friends, deal with difficulties surrounding coming out, overcome sexual challenges, and manage shame, discrimination and stigma.

We are becoming more aware how psychological pain increases when we haven't developed a strong sense of self. Such distress, presenting in forms such as depression and anxiety, can keep us from profound and beautiful connection. Healthy relationships we have with ourselves and others are essential for our emotional well-being. So first, live a life that reflects who you are, even if others don't quite understand. Trying to conform to what others want has never been possible. In the Power of Awareness, Neville wrote, "The awareness of 'being' remains regardless of the degree of forgetfulness of who, where and what I am."

We all face challenges in life, and sometimes our challenges can make it difficult to know how to move forward. Therapy can provide a space for addressing such challenges, regaining focus, and finding a new or renewed direction to move forward. I have helped clients through anxiety, depression, crisis, grief, multicultural concerns, life transitions, and family conflict. I specialize with LGBTQIA individuals, couples, and families and often work with adolescents and young adults.

Thanks for visiting my profile and website. Are you looking for some help and perspective on life transitions, events or historical trauma causing anxiety, depression, or leading to some internal or external conflicts? Then I welcome hearing more from you, what you hope to achieve through therapy and how we can resolve these issues. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in Salt Lake City, Utah, dually licensed in Minnesota, where I can meet with folks virtually. The last 10+ years I've been providing care to adults and adolescents in outpatient healthcare settings.

My areas of focus: 1) Individuals who have been unsuccessful in relieving anxiety, anger, or depression with other therapies, 2) Men who have been told they have "anger problems", 3) Faith transitions, whether staying or leaving, 4) Sexual health concerns, 5) Couples who are confused about what they need and where to get it, 6) Couples who are stuck in ambivalence about whether to stay and work on their relationship, or separate.

My work with clients begins at the heart using a strength-based, person-centered approach. Navigating life's uncertainties and learning how to grow through difficult times can be challenging. Past events in our lives are part of our story, but they are not the entire story and they do not define our whole life. I embrace people and their stories with an open heart and innate sensitivity. Creating a safe and nonjudgmental environment to explore relationship and life patterns that are no longer serving you is of utmost importance to me. Therapy is a journey that we can take together, navigating the challenges in a collaborative way.

Everyone struggles at some point in their lives. It’s the human experience, and comes in many forms: anxiety, depression, trauma, acting out behaviors. As a clinical therapist with a Master’s in Social Work, I have been honored to provide support to children, teens, LGBTQIA, families and adults through crisis and behavioral support, military, and person or individual previously incarcerated.I have strong experiences in helping with behavioral issues, conduct, juvenile involved youth, LGBTQIA issues/needs/supports, youth with autism and families that need more support and tools. ​

Currently licensed in UT and FL. Couples often find themselves stuck in cyclical ways of disagreeing and worry how these dynamics impact their own stress levels, future of the relationship, and families. I use a highly interactive model of couples therapy to help partners better "learn" each other and understand how attachment impacts their relationship. Ultimately, couples work together to make their relationship a refuge in which each partner can be more fully known. I see couples for issues related to communication breakdown, betrayal, cross-cultural/religious concerns, fertility issues, parenting, and work-life balance.

Have you ever felt judged or pressured by a previous therapist that did not share your values? Do you search for a tattoo or a piercing to make sure a therapist is "safe"? Finding a therapist in Utah can be so difficult if you don't fall into the dominant religious culture. The last few years has been painful and traumatic for so many. It is no surprise that many of us feel isolated and paralyzed by social anxiety, while potentially facing a recent loss of community. If you are going through a faith transition, are LGBTQ, or want help in learning new coping skills, I'd love to work with you.

My treatment approach places an emphasis on the mind-body relationship and is both experiential and pragmatic. I specialize in the treatment of mood and behavior-related disorders as well as culture-based identity conflict. I work with families, adolescents, teens, and individuals to help them develop deeper connections to themselves, and stronger more fulfilling relationships with others, resulting in increased vitality, improved quality of life, and joy. I am honored to partner with you and your family on the journey towards restoration and growth.

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.

Hi, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I specialize in Women's Health and am social justice oriented. I have experience working with families, veterans, hospice patients and their families, trauma, the houseless population, folks experiencing discrimination, on the behavioral health unit, and the birthing population. I am specialty trained in Perinatal Mental Health. I love working with folks who are feeling at their lowest and accompanying them back to solid ground.

My experience includes working with clients in trauma and crisis settings. I also have experience with helping clients develop a healthy body image, reducing anxiety and depression, navigating faith related struggles, aiding in the grief process, and healing from race related trauma. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Working with the LGBTQ+ community, Latinx community, and Black community in Utah has solidified my approach to be patient centered.

Who could you be if you were able to manage your emotions skillfully and without self-criticism? The fact that you are reading these words right now tells me you’re on the path toward discovering the answer to that question. It takes strength to seek support and I am so happy you have found yourself here. I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma/PTSD.

How would it feel to be certain of who you are-let's find out how you can be the expert of your own life! I focus from several evidence-based & trauma-informed therapy models with adult individuals, relationship systems & groups. I am experienced in attachment, chronic health Issues, disability & medical trauma, life & belief transitions, gender & LGBTQ+ & alternative partnerships. I'm passionate about working with individuals whose lives have been deeply altered by a major event including a medical trauma, disability or career loss. I have limited space for high-specialization-match clients

Seeking help from a therapist is a true act of courage. I have a passion for helping people who feel stuck and want to become excited about life again. I have first hand experience with both, joy and pain, if you've decided it's time for a change, I can help.

I value and celebrate individuals who come all walks of life. I believe there are strengths and perspectives to be found in the life experience we face each day. There are many pieces and parts that make us who we are; our life history, our race, gender, gender expression, age, sexual identities, abilities, religious beliefs, and spiritualities. Pieces that are apart of us, but not always in harmony. I believe as we acknowledge, explore and embrace these conflicts, we can find a new meaning to our suffering, new ways of coping, and a new perspective on life.
