Life's struggles can feel overwhelming at times. Work, relationships, past traumas, gender, sexuality, religious background, and politics can weigh on us until we feel trapped by it all. Our community is facing depression, anxiety, PTSD, low self-esteem, suicidal ideations, faith transitions, religious trauma, and more. In Utah it is common to have suffered religious trauma and not even realize it, especially as a former member of the mormon church. Whether you are LGBTQIA+ or cisgender/heterosexual, let's work together to help you not just survive, but also thrive.
As an eclectic counselor I utilize different types of therapy that will work best for your individual needs including CBT, DBT, EMDR, and more. I work with adults and teens and focus on depression, anxiety, suicidal ideations, trauma, faith transitions, self esteem, religious trauma and more. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and am queer myself.
I have experienced depression, anxiety, and religious trauma (as a former mormon) and learned to overcome it and have years of mental health experience. I'm confident I can help you learn to use the power you have inside to overcome your struggles as well. Call today to start your journey to well being. Free 15 min consultation available.
