Clients coming from a faith background of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ( Mormon) find it helpful to work with someone who understands LDS teachings and culture.
My clients are responsible people (maybe too responsible!) who are looking for relief and balance. Self-help books and tips only take them so far, and somehow there's a "root problem" that still seems evasive. They want to thrive, not just survive, but cognitive approaches are not getting them there. I specialize in helping competent but exhausted people find greater peace through getting to the "root" of their issues so that shifts are lasting.

Therapy does not have to be a beatdown. Healing and growth can be demanding, exhausting, and have high stakes. Having support, a clear plan, and reliable evidence-based approaches adapted to your unique situation can sustain hope through the hardest times and bring changes that feel impossible within reach. You are the expert in your own life. Change is most meaningful and lasting when we are supported in discovering our own insights and solutions within the safety of compassionate relationships. My first goal is to help create a safe place for you to have a voice and access your natural capacity for healing.

You feel stuck—like no matter what you do, the weight of stress, past experiences, or relationship struggles won’t let up. You’re exhausted from trying so hard but still feel unheard, unseen, or disconnected. Maybe you’re the one holding everything together, yet inside, you feel like you’re falling apart. The constant pressure, guilt, and burnout are overwhelming. You’re tired of the same arguments, the loneliness, the tension in your body that never fully goes away. You push forward, but deep down, you wonder… Does it ever get easier?

Anxiety can make it hard to slow your mind down. You may find yourself overthinking conversations, feeling emotionally exhausted, struggling to relax, or constantly worrying about relationships, work, or the future. Even when things look “fine” from the outside, it can feel overwhelming internally. I work with teens, adults, and couples experiencing anxiety, ADHD, stress, intrusive thoughts, relationship challenges, emotional overwhelm, depression, and difficulty managing intense emotions. Many of my clients feel stuck in patterns like people-pleasing, shutting down during conflict, irritability, or overthinking.

Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work together effectively, but, especially for those whose concerns relate to their religion or cultural background, a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond, even if they do not have an extensive history with or understanding of their client’s background before therapy begins.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Church of Christ/Latter Day Saints values?
Each individual brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of therapeutic modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition such as LDS that strongly influences the conduct of everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process.
Why might someone feel comfortable with an LDS-attuned therapist?
While qualifications and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic effectiveness. It is wise to find a therapist who is responsive to your questions and concerns and with whom you feel you can establish a rapport. A therapist who is sensitive to LDS values and beliefs and the role they play in the lives of Church members can offer Mormon clients a welcome sense of safety, assurance that their community and culture will be understood, and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, all of which support the therapeutic process.
How do I recognize a good LDS therapist?
LDS therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Mormon principles and values. They have an understanding of the culture and the important role the Church plays in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of emotional difficulties those raised in the faith can be prone to. Like all effective therapists, a good LDS therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of everyday life.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Mormon/LDS therapists?
The directory of LDS therapists includes therapists who have shared their cultural background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information; these individuals would not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with LDS clients and/or communities, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
