Therapists in Provo, UT

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 managed 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.

I have dedicated my career to helping survivors of abuse heal. I have come to understand the dark world of ritual abuse, programming, abductions, loss and grief. My mission is to bring these issues to light for healing through information, support and hope. My approach is rooted in a compassionate connection with the Divine. Through our work together we will create full integration and energetic harmony within. I am also a certified Emotion Code practitioner, a valuable healing modality.

I enjoy helping clients who feel stuck with some aspect of their life get unstuck and experience more joy and peace. I like getting to the heart of issues as efficiently as possible so we can begin working on finding answers and solutions. This process begins by discussing the challenges a client is facing and noticing areas of strong emotion. From there, we explore those strong emotions and note what core issues might be driving these feelings. It's a powerful process of discovery that helps bring complex issues into focus.

Life is a rollercoaster for everyone, which means adjustments are inevitable, whether it is big or small, good or bad, fortunate or devastating. As an Asian migrant in Utah myself, I understand the struggles when we have to adapt to any sort of significant adjustment or change, especially grief and loss. I strive to provide a safe space for clients to find the inner strength to process and find meaning from the storm. I am a firm believer of genuine connection and empathy as keys towards recovery. As a therapist, I see my role as your teammate to accomplish any goals you have in mind for a better outcome at the end of the tunnel.

I see individuals that desire and are willing to work at creating better relationships and lives. Sometimes we may feel stuck; unable to control our emotions and thought processes. I bring hope and tools to help provide healing and growth. We get a clear picture and understanding of what we want the outcome of therapy to be. We come up with priorities to work on and then experience interventions that create awareness, understanding, skills, hope and motivation to do what works! We then do our homework. We continue in this process, making any adjustments, till we achieve our "healthier life"!

You are worth it. I can help you find healing, peace and happiness. I work with people struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, identity struggles, betrayal trauma, pornography addiction, marriage issues, spiritual identity, faith crisis, mixed faith marriages, and problematic patterns that prevent you from being happy. I work particularly well with teens and their parents–and have experience working in adolescent residential treatment. I also work well with issues relating to adoption and attachment.

I have worked with many populations including adolescents, children, homeless, couples, families and individuals. I have lived in the South Pacific including Hawaii and Tonga. I have also lived in California , Arizona, Washington and I currently live in Provo Utah. I have worked with a wide number of different cultures and people of different beliefs. I adhere to a humanistic model of Psychotherapy in that no one person is the same and everyone deserves to be treated with empathy. I focus on each individual's potential and stress of growth and self-actualization.

I care very deeply, and I work hard to create a safe space in therapy where you feel heard and a part of the change process. My person-centered and trauma-informed approach to therapy allows me to adapt to your specific needs in the therapeutic space.

In-person and teletherapy appointment options available. Life is full of challenging and painful experiences. These stressful, sometimes traumatic events can create suffering, grief, and emotional upset. You may lose focus on your goals. Your relationships may be negatively affected. If your life plans go off course, get pushed aside or delayed, you may need help getting things back on track. I am passionate about empowering clients to find peace and self-compassion, reduce distress, and reclaim their lives. I work with teens and adults helping them bravely transition from a state of survival to one of thriving.

My approach is an affirmative space. I help many navigate the difficult journey of their faith crises and revolutions. This is a very hard time to navigate and the universe is calling us to heal. I don't judge ANY of my clients and I meet them where they are at to work on their goals. I have special trainings and certifications with Brainspotting a brain based trauma approach; working with children through play therapy, couples therapy & LGBTQ+ relationships and issues. I also have extensive experience wading through the struggles of stepfamily and blended family issues. You deserve a supportive space to manage life.

Desiring for deeper, more fulfilling relationships but feeling hindered by obstacles like anxiety and fear are my ideal clients. They seek to form healthy, loving bonds with themselves, others, and their faith. Their goals are to understand their reactions, communicate openly, and embrace their purpose confidently. They desire transformative experiences to overcome challenges and distractions, fostering genuine connections and enriched lives.

I believe that the body, mind & soul are intertwined. As a counselor & coach my purpose & goal is to inspire & empower you, teaching you the tools you need to interpret & respond to situations differently. I offer you the opportunity to learn different & new ways of understanding yourself & reasons for your feelings & thoughts. I will help you to see the situations you face as opportunities to grow & evolve. I will work closely & intently with you to encourage & offer focus & clarification on what steps to take to experience more peace, calm & good in life, improving you.

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. As a sex therapist, I am especially enthusiastic about helping couples create "sextraordinary" marriages! 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.

Today is the first day of the rest of your life! Start the journey to more peace and happiness in relationships with others and within yourself. Have you wanted to go to a therapist but felt apprehensive? I have seen and heard everything over the 20+ years in practice so nothing will shock me. addictions, mood disorders, anxiety, depression, communication and conflict resolution, as well as intimacy and sexual issues in couples therapy. also eating disorders and body image issues, grief and loss are just a few of the areas I specialize in. If your not sure where to start, I can help. I offer Saturday, daytime and evening times.

I am a strengths-based therapist by nature. I love to focus on what you already know and the skills you already have. I want to help you leverage what you’re already good at to overcome problems you didn’t even know you had the ability to confront.

I have been told that I am a really easy person to talk to & I try to create a relaxed atmosphere in therapy. I have years of experience working with kids. I have decades of experience working with teenagers. Most of my schooling was done to work with adults. I even have military experience to work with veterans. I always strive to find methods to improve your success. That is why using the latest research, I developed Cognitive Physical Conditioning (CPC). CPC can improve clients' ability to overcome mental disorders & nearly double their chance of success with less time in treatment & reduced relapse

Life can be difficult. Many challenges face us and we can all use a little guidance or just an empathetic listening ear at times. At Innsaei, you will discover ways to calm the waves of your inner world, so you can live a whole and peaceful life. We offer many options for you to work in creative and effective ways, all personally customized to you and your needs, helping you gain insight, skills, and processes so you can navigate through the challenges encountered along life's journey.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS, INTERNS/Counselors!! I appeal best with clients who have identified that some aspect of their life has stopped working for them, or never really worked at all. People who seek out a counselor to validate the fact that change is necessary, and desire professional help to collaborate in identifying their own natural strengths (or at least potential capabilities) towards overcoming difficulties just need a personal team player. These people are exciting to work with, from individuals to couples. My hope is that my warm and inviting office atmosphere and my own experience and skills can motivate mental healing .

As a marriage and family therapist, I have successfully helped many individuals (single adults, college students, and adolescents), couples, and families through the difficulties faced with normal family problems, as well as diagnostically challenging issues. I have worked with people who come from all over Utah Valley. I have extensive experience working with adolescents and families. I love working with youth and young adults as they move through the complexities of life at that time. I look forward to working with you. My office is located at the mouth of Provo Canyon.
