Obesity Therapists in Kaysville, UT

Hello! I am a Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner that specializes in mental health. As a nurse for 15 years, and now as a Nurse Practitioner, I have always believed that we need to have a healthy balance between our physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual selves. My goal is to help you accomplish this by providing testing, lab work, medication management, and support as it is needed. I work with children to adults who deal with depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, addiction, binge-eating disorder, obesity, thyroid dysfunction, and hormone imbalance.

I love helping a person become their best version of themselves. Most people seeking counseling feel defeated. My strategies help them find hope and to develop new approaches to help them become powerful people with tangible skills to overcome the challenges in their lives so they can have joy and fulfillment. Ideally a client is ready to try new approaches to their life, to accept responsiblity for the consequences of their current behaviors, and is willing to risk failing, as each success is usually preceded by a few failed attempts.

I am an experienced Psychologist that believes therapy can help you find balance, help you grow and improve your relationships. I specialize in individual and couples therapy and helping people develop a better understanding of themselves and their relationships. I am also committed to providing a caring and non-judgmental space where we can work through life's challenges together and learn ways to feel fulfilled and at peace with life. My approach to treatment is personalized and interactive. We develop a plan together and work on achieving goals that matter most to you.

As a therapist, my goal is to help clients identify and understand barriers in their life that are preventing them from achieving peace and happiness. I believe with knowledge comes power; as people gain insight into problems affecting them they can gain insight on how to achieve change in their life. I help clients explore their strengths and weaknesses, while working to use strengths to cope with life challenges, identifying a path to promote change. Lastly, I work to empower clients and help them develop the skills necessary to be successful after our work together is complete.

I work together with you to help discover your true self and overcome things that have been holding you back from living the life you desire. My biggest goal in therapy is to help you feel seen and heard. Striving to create a safe space where you feel comfortable to be yourself and discussing whatever is on your mind is very important to me and our work together. I work with individuals age 17 and above.

I’m here to advocate for your growth and to bring compassion and understanding to the stuck places. You’ll be asked to be both accountable and vulnerable. Rather than steering straight to the heart of the struggle, I’ll offer tools and accompany you. I believe the most powerful truths—the ones people take the most seriously—are those they come to, little by little, on their own. When you realize that you can (and must) construct your own life, you’re free to generate change.

Thank you for reaching out! I am committed to helping my clients resolve their concerns and believe everyone is capable of change and improving their lives. Recognizing you need assistance and exploring how therapists in your area can help you is a great first step. When we work together, it will be a collaborative effort. Above all, you will be treated with respect and unconditional positive regard while we work toward achieving the goals you set and the resolution of the problems you identify. I utilize an eclectic, client-centered treatment modality.

"It ain't how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." Sometimes life hits us hard and drops us in a place where we need a helping hand. I've been a mental health provider in Colorado and Utah, thus adding diversity to my practice. If you find yourself in a place where you need a helping hand, please call me.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, working with individuals, couples, families, children, and adolescents. I use interactive play therapy with children, I teach cognitive therapy (CBT) skills as well as dialectical behavior skills (DBT). I have also been trained in EMDR, which is specific to trauma treatment. I use these and other therapeutic interventions to assist my clients in improving strategies to better regulate emotions, tolerate and work through emotional distress, confront and change faulty thinking patterns, develop healthy boundaries, and improve communication patterns. Problems don't just go away, it takes work, courage, and a strong heart.

Life is full of curve balls, and we aren't always equipped to knock it out of the park. If you are having difficulty in your current day to day, then let's talk. There are a wide variety of reasons that people struggle and I'm here to process with you. I work with every client on an individualized treatment plan towards their self-defined goals of success. I offer in person and telehealth therapy services.

The best part about being a therapist is seeing the positive emotional and physical responses my clients gain from therapy. I think of myself as a guide in helping people navigate challenges in their life. Everybody has challenges and obstacles they must face in their lifetime. But not one experience is the same. How we process our emotions, how and what we believe about ourselves and the world around us is as unique as we are. It’s an emotional fingerprint. I want to hear about the emotional fingerprints, both good and bad so I can better understand how to guide you away from the bad and onto a path of self-healing.
