Therapists in Salt Lake City, UT

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you” – Dr. Maya Angelou This quote resonates with me because I believes that everyone has a story to tell and sharing it can bring about healing. Providing a supportive, warm and non-judgmental space to share stories is essential for healing to begin. I offers support to adults and teens experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, relationship issues, grief and loss.

I am passionate about walking alongside people as they navigate life’s challenges and hope to help them tap in to their authentic selves. I support others in achieving their definition of wellness by using multiple approaches including: EMDR, Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and DBT all through a trauma informed lens.

It's okay to not feel like yourself. It's okay to not know what the next step is in your healing journey. What you are feeling is real and it is possible to feel better! I work with adults, specializing in trauma, sex therapy, postpartum experiences and life transitions. I am passionate about LGBTQIA+ individuals receiving queer-affirming therapy that empowers and facilitates self compassion and acceptance.

My therapeutic style focuses on assisting clients through their struggles by leading from behind. I have assisted clients of all ages that are working through anxiety, depression, various types of trauma, faith transitions, and sexuality and gender issues. I focus on priorities in my clients' lives and work at their pace to make the therapeutic process as beneficial as possible for them.

My name is Jamie Hales and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in women’s mental health. Whether it is your first time seeking therapy or you are returning to the work, my role is to serve as a guide on your journey.

We believe in the art and science of therapy. Our goal is to help you achieve vitality, wellness, and resilience. We promise to create a safe, warm, and welcoming environment. It is our mission to leave you feeling confident in your ability to manage life and create positive change.

Throughout my life, I have searched for the kindness and understanding of others. I have lived through hardship and trauma, which have shaped me into the individual I have become. I know the value of suffering and the importance of being seen, heard, and understood by others, even a stranger. To be human is to long for meaning and worth. At times it seems impossible to find it within ourselves without the outreached hand of others who see beyond our appearance and behavior. My passion is people and the amazing ability of the mind, body, and soul. My desire is to help others discover and thrive in their own health and happiness.

I passionately believe that each person is unique and has an important story to tell. My approach is to create a safe place where we address and learn how trauma has impacted us, as individuals. I am confident that anyone is capable of healing and I am dedicated to supporting people as they navigate through their challenging mental health journey. Learning to harness the power of one's mind and body, a person is able to achieve greater balance and well-being in their daily life.

I believe that connection can be an incredible catalyst for change. I am excited about creating connections with my clients and supporting them as they explore where they want to go. I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, and adults experiencing life transitions, anxiety, depression, and the impacts of trauma. Exploring body image with clients is also something that I am passionate about.

I see so much greatness in each of my clients I work with whether they see it or not. I take great care into having a safe, non-judgmental, supportive, and affirming space for my clients so that they can look inward and find their unique strengths and pull that goodness out.

I am Laura Van Hook, LCSW with 21 years of social work experience in multiple settings including inpatient behavioral health, inpatient medical, crisis services, schools, and hospice.

My amazing team of therapists and case managers are ideally suited to help you meet your therapy goals.

I understand that change is achieved through the creation of a safe, trusting relationship, making space to have your story heard, your strengths recognized, and your emotions witnessed. Creating that type of space requires lots of realness and a little time.
