EMI Health Therapists in Layton, UT
I specialize in creating a space where patients can feel safe to share who they really are and what they are experiencing. This allows them to naturally become aware of changes they want to make and gives them support as they explore those changes. I am honored to be invited to accompany patients on their healing journey and feel deep respect for those courageous enough to engage in the process of healing and changing their lives.

Life experience paired with my education allows me to relate and feel deeply as I connect with my clients, especially through the difficult and dark moments we all find ourselves in. I believe the smallest positive steps forward can change our life trajectories in a meaningful way. I have always been intrigued by relationship dynamics and focus my work with clients struggling in their marriages, families, and personal lives as well as those experiencing anxiety, OCD and depression.

Life doesn’t feel the way you thought it would. You imagined being more confident, more at peace, more connected- but instead, you're overwhelmed and stuck in patterns of taking care of everyone else instead of taking care of yourself. It feels like you are always having to perform and it’s honestly exhausting. Whether you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, or just trying to feel like yourself again, I’m here to help. I work with adults who want therapy that’s focused, grounded, goal oriented, and actually moves you forward.

You’re trying to make sense of your life, your relationships, or the patterns you keep repeating—and it’s hard to face those things without support. You need a safe, compassionate space where you can be fully honest without being judged. Katryna will help you feel seen, understood, and strengthened as you move toward real change. Katryna helps clients 12 and older with the everyday challenges of being human—stress, relationships, emotional overwhelm, self-worth, and the feeling of being stuck. After more than a decade in the field, she's learned how to get to the heart of what’s really going on so healing can begin.

Life is hard. We do the best we can to solve our problems with the knowledge we have. But sometimes we find ourselves in a difficult spot where we need fresh perspectives and new thinking tools to help us deal with our problems in a healthier way. That is the benefit of counseling. In a safe and affirming environment, I help my clients find solutions to problems that are solvable, learn to better cope with those that are unsolvable, and discover deeper joy and meaning in life.

When you’ve been hurt by someone you trusted, it messes with your whole sense of self. You start second-guessing everything: your feelings, your worth, your instincts. Maybe you feel anxious all the time, shut down easily, or don’t even know what “normal” feels like anymore. If you or your child are carrying the weight of betrayal, emotional chaos, or past trauma, I can help. You don’t have to keep questioning if it is really “that bad.” You just have to be ready to start healing.

I understand that reaching out for support is a difficult thing, but I have to tell you… I’m so excited that you are here. Whether you’re here for yourself or your teen, I’m ready and willing to walk beside you on your journey. I work with adults who often identify as female and/or non-binary. I will make exceptions to see adolescents (<18) under special circumstances. My specialty is eating disorders; including disordered eating, body image (body dissatisfaction), and self-esteem. I am a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist through the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals.

My name is CJ and I am an experienced Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I enjoy working with clients who are open and willing to learn and try new ways of thinking and behaving. My hope is that clients don't enter therapy looking for somebody to simply tell them what to do; I don't believe that's my role as a clinician. Instead, effective therapy is about collaborative partnership. Remember, you are the expert on you. I want to utilize that expertise to work with you to create and move towards your goals. Much of my work is focused on helping youth and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, anger and addiction.

Your thoughts can be loud, relentless, and hard to escape. You replay conversations you had with people, worry you’re “too much,” or get stuck in spirals that leave you exhausted with no solution figured out. Maybe you look fine on the outside- but inside, everything feels intense. I work with kids, teens, and young adults who overthink, feel anxious, or get lost in self-doubt. If your brain never seems to take a break, this space is for you. Therapy isn’t about fixing you- it’s about untangling what’s weighing you down and starting to feel more like yourself again.

I’m a little unorthodox in my approach to counseling; I’ve never been one to subscribe to the status quo—ergo, I am personable and genuinely care about patients I work with. I am not a good fit for all, especially those who prefer a “clipboard,” unemotionally rigid persona-type of therapist. I am uniquely “me;” I have had success with patients who are equally subscribed to a therapeutic approach which fits them personally. I earned a doctorate—not to tell people how to subscribe to how I think they ought to live their life, but to embrace the lived experience of every soul I encounter. I am merely a navigator—my patient the captain.

Good therapy feels less like a lecture and more like an honest conversation, one where you get to show up authentically and be met without judgment. I see it as a collaboration, something we build together so you walk away with real insight, resilience, and tools that fit your actual life. You’re the expert on your own life, I’m just here to meet you halfway.

If you’ve tried traditional talk therapy and still feel stuck, you’re not alone and it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Sometimes the brain and nervous system need a different kind of support. I offer an integrative approach that combines counseling with neurofeedback and biofeedback to help regulate your brain, improve focus, sleep, and emotional balance, and create lasting change. Many clients find this approach helpful, especially when other methods haven’t fully worked. You deserve to feel better, and I’d be honored to support you!

Our sessions are a soft place to unravel painful narratives, including the heaviness we carry around from traumatic loss, grief and hard transitions. Grief is misunderstood as a straightforward experience. In reality, grief can reignite old traumas, shining a light on tricky relational complexities. You will gain communication techniques that honor unique interpersonal dynamics and curate a toolbox of adaptive emotional processing skills. My approach to grief therapy is death-care informed, informed by my experience as a former hospice social worker and chaplain. In that role, I witnessed dozens of deaths, which impacted me deeply.

I dedicate my practice to working with individuals and couples navigating difficulties in their relationships, as well as those coping with family of origin dysfunction, anxiety, perfectionism, poor body image, depression, overwhelm and perinatal mental health. As a therapist, my mission is to support clients in creating more peace and joy in their lives. I help clients by helping them better understand and improve how they show up in their lives and relationships. This can help you learn how to thrive, rather than just get by, regardless of the challenges you face.

I work with children and teens who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, school pressure, friendships, or family conflict. Your child may seem overwhelmed, withdrawn, irritable, insecure, or unsure of where they fit. I offer a steady, supportive space where they can talk honestly, feel understood, and learn practical tools for managing emotions, building confidence, and handling daily life with more stability. I also work with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship stress, or feeling stuck.

I am a PhD clinical psychologist with 37 years of experience in military and civilian settings. I am mostly retired, but I am returning to a limited practice to work with individuals, couples, and families who are motivated to make improvements in their lives. I appreciate the feeling of respect and collaboration when a clients/patients and a therapist are working together.

I can help you reconnect with yourself and find the balance that lets you thrive as the best version of you! Many of my clients come to me feeling like they’ve lost their identity while juggling the demands of family, work, and societal expectations. They put so much pressure on themselves to be perfect that it leads to anxiety and depression. It's lonely and isolating. I am here to show you that there is hope and meaning in your future. The cycle can be reversed, and you may be surprised how capable and incredible you are with the support of a caring therapist like me.

As humans, we are hard-wired for connection. Relationships shape beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world around us. These core beliefs influence our inner world (thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations) and our interactions with others.
