EMI Health Therapists in Salem, UT
As a therapist, I love working with individuals struggling with the healing from trauma or just the negative beliefs and self perception of themselves. I am passionate about helping others feel empowered, find their inner strength, and navigate towards a life of peace and self-love. Therapy is a space where a person should feel safe and understood; a judgement-free zone and I promise, you will have that with me. Having had my own struggles and working through them, I am confident I can help you with yours.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, you're not alone. I work with teenagers and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, school or work stress, identity questions, and major life changes. With my background in crisis work and the emergency room, I understand how heavy things can feel - and how important it is to have someone steady, calm, and supportive by your side.
I especially enjoy working with teens and young adults, helping them build confidence, coping skills, and a stronger sense of self. I offer evening appointments making it easier for busy students and working adults to get help.

Working to improve mental health, creating positive changes, and increasing feelings of peace and happiness in one’s life and relationships can be one of the most difficult things anyone undertakes. I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey from where we are to where we want to be. After having walked with so many people navigating this road of personal growth for over 20 yrs I have become comfortable having those uncomfortable conversations it requires. Deseret Counseling understands the path as well, having been voted best counseling in Utah County the last 10 yrs and counting.

I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy. The ability to talk to an objective and supportive person who isn’t attached to your everyday life has value because they can help guide you through your life and offer perspective in areas that maybe weren’t clear to you. Seeking help from therapy is like getting help with your broken car. Sure you could probably watch a YouTube video on how to fix the car, but why not take it to an expert who is trained on how to fix cars. The same thing goes for mental health. Life has so many ups and downs, so why not seek help from someone who is trained to help people navigate that journey.

Many adults come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in painful patterns, or carrying the lasting effects of difficult life experiences. Trauma can impact how you relate to yourself, others, and the world around you, often showing up as perfectionism, self-doubt, emotional overwhelm, disconnection, or relationship struggles. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can explore these experiences with care and begin to heal.
