Therapists in Salem, UT

One of my favorite quotes by Brené Brown says, "Shame corrodes the very part of us that believes we are capable of change." No matter what you've been through or where you are now, I strongly believe you have the power to heal and become the best version of yourself. When we go through a challenging or traumatic event, our sense of self can become tainted, we may feel lost, and we may even no longer view ourselves as powerful, strong, or courageous. It can be scary to navigate that alone.

Distressing and traumatic experiences can leave us feeling confused, alone and emotionally disconnected. As a trauma informed therapist I assist individuals in confronting, making sense of and resolving past, traumatic experiences. I help my clients connect present day unhelpful behaviors, beliefs and attitudes to unresolved, lived experiences. I have 15 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents and adults. My areas of expertise include: trauma, anxiety and depressive disorders, maternal mental health (i.e. postpartum depression), grief and loss and issues of self-esteem.

I know that sometimes in life we reach a point where we feel stuck, but there is hope. My ideal patient is focused upon personal growth and healing. Whether it’s depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, couples and marriage concerns, OCD, among other issues we face in life, therapy can help. You don't have to do this alone. You are probably looking for a way to break these patterns, and there is. I help clients work through trauma and leave the unhealthy patterns that may have been useful for them in the past, but are now getting in the way of the life they want to live.

Hey there! Glad you are here. Searching for a therapist can feel like an overwhelming process, and I'd love to help make it easier. I work best with issues related to trauma, some including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, abuse, self worth, etc. You may be telling yourself that you aren't good enough, capable, or loveable because of your life experiences. I admire the courage and vulnerability it takes to make the first steps towards healing amidst those heavy narratives, feelings, and experiences. I am here to walk that path with you, help you accomplish your goals, and find whatever healing looks like for you.

I’ve helped many people in my career who have struggled with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and relationship difficulties because of trauma, abuse, loss, or other high-stress experiences from their past. It’s not just the events we’ve experienced, but rather the result of how those events continue to affect us. I help patients retain learning and wisdom from their past but lose the pain. Everyone who steps into my office will be valued, heard, and respected no matter how difficult the issues may be to talk about. I respect and treat each person as I would want my own family member treated.

At times in our lives we can be unexpectedly faced with difficult and challenging circumstances. Reaching out for help and support is a courageous first step. I am whole-heartedly committed to helping you address your needs and concerns in a compassionate, caring way. I have worked with a variety of clients from diverse backgrounds and draw from both my clinical and lived experiences in creating for clients a safe, accepting environment.

I am committed to helping my clients increase self-awareness, strengthen relationships, reduce anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms, and live a more value-directed life. I want to help you feel emotionally lighter, happier, and more confident. I want to help you reach your goals and become your best self.

By the end of each appointment with me, I want you to feel like you’ve been heard and that you’ve gained something valuable, whether that’s new coping skills or an improved sense of peace or strength. Your trauma is stored in your nervous system, so I utilize therapies like EMDR to work to relieve you of your burden. My training is in grief and trauma-related symptoms like anxiety, depression, PTSD, self-harm, and suicidality. I provide trauma-focused therapy to support you as we work together to reach your goals.

I believe each person is unique and has great worth. Whether you are at the beginning of your healing journey, somewhere in the middle or towards the end, finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I am here to support, encourage, validate, explore and discover with you. Life can be stressful and can also feed us lies, doubts and bring a concoction of unpleasant emotions. I am here to walk alongside you as you rediscover yourself and work through past trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, self worth or whatever struggles you are currently dealing with. I also specialize in working with children to help them through these struggles.

My goal is to enable my clients to better navigate the world around them and live more authentic and fulfilling lives. My treatment approaches is based in research on what produces the best outcomes in therapy, and our job in your therapy sessions is to help tailor that approach to your specific needs. I believe that the connection and trust you feel with me in therapy is the strongest predictor of how much you will benefit from our meetings. I will walk your path alongside you and help you work toward greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, resilience, and personal growth.

Many people feel unhappy and disconnected from themselves and the people they love. If you are wondering if there is anything you can do to strengthen yourself and your relationships, there are answers. New coping skills can help you see yourself and your relationships differently, new brain techniques can help resolve old traumas, and current research can bring understanding. It's never too late to look at your life differently and change what's happening in your world.
