Therapists in West Jordan, UT

Life stressors and traumatic events can cause anxiety, depression, and other uncomfortable emotions. I work with teens and adults who seek to understand the “why” of their emotions and behaviors, and move away from feeling hopeless, exhausted, or numb. We will work together to help you better understand yourself, discuss hard topics, and build skills to experience healing and growth.

The Family Counseling Center offers relief and support to people struggling with mental health, substance use, or behavioral concerns. Individuals, couples, and families are welcome. We will affirm you in all of your identities and will see you as more than your diagnoses. We work with a wide range of people and seek to match you with clinicians based on the nature of the concern and your lived experience. Our team is here to listen and to help you find your own best way forward.

I offer an empathic, client-directed approach and love helping clients build better versions of themselves. I meet clients where they are and provide a space where they can explore their unique life experiences and find their path forward. I have worked in the mental health field for 8+ years, beginning with getting a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from BYU.

Over the years, I have developed my gift of diagnosis which helps me to understand my patients in an accurate and easy to understand manner for them. Then we grieve together the past and implement interventions and boundaries for a healthy future. Psychotherapy is proven to be more enduring than drug therapy, and my approach towards treating my patients is to avoid medication where possible.

My credentials are: 1- Certified Supervisor and Therapist in Emotionally Focused Therapy 2- Jungian Therapy 3- Addiction Therapy..We all want to live happy and passionate lives. Change is inevitable, but it can be hard. When you suffer from anxiety, depression, or addiction life will feel unmanageable. And, relationships can be so hard. We all want them but they can be so triggering. I believe therapy is a gift to your heart, mind, and soul. Therapy should be a tool to help you achieve the life what you want to live. I love what I do, and I look forward to speaking with you.

Are you struggling to get out of bed in the morning? Or having trouble sleeping at night because you can’t turn off your brain? Have you tried everything to improve your relationship, but nothing seems to work? Have you lost joy? If so, you’re not alone, and the good news is that help is within reach. For over 20 years, I’ve devoted myself to helping my clients with these issues and more.

My passion and specialty for the last 18 years is working with individuals and families with executive functioning challenges (ADD/ADHD, ASD), attachment development, and adoption related struggles. Individuals and families who are seeking a strong behavioral approach will find practical and effective techniques to create a long lasting healthy lifestyle. I also assist with navigating the IEP/504 plan process. I will meet you and your family with an incredible amount of compassion, love and a healthy dose of humor.

I had the experience that many others have had of going to therapy at a young age and finding it to be lacking. Very rarely was I asked what I wanted or what I believed would help me. For a long time, no one taught me how to trust my own voice. Now, I believe the greatest goal of counseling is to achieve a stronger relationship of trust and love with yourself. That is why I use evidence-based & trauma-informed therapy models to guide our work together, but you will always remain the expert of your life. I want to help you learn to hear, understand, and trust your own voice.

I have found truth in the idea that "life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced". Therapy then becomes a beautiful place where we can try on new ideas and perspectives. My Clients are at the wheel. They get to be their authentic selves and are free to explore the world around them as they see fit. Yes, that includes the pain and sadness. Those come with the territory. But we often find peace and happiness too. It's this balance that gives us hope to move onward and upward in our unique journey.

I am the clinical director for Center For Human Potential, located in downtown Salt Lake City. We focus on helping people achieve balance and fulfillment.

We provide counseling to individuals, couples, and families. We also prescribe psychiatric medication and offer psychological testing to screen for ADHD and learning disabilities. We accept most health insurance plans and offer a sliding fee scale, based on income level, for those without insurance.

I personally relate to these identity markers and understand how navigating life and identity can be difficult. I can be supportive in creating a safe and brave space for you to be at ease with being your authentic self and work towards accomplishing your mental health goals!

Hi, my name is Juancarlos Santisteban. My motto for counseling is, " When you can't look on the bright side, I will sit with you in the dark."

Perhaps you are experiencing a faith transition, relationship transition, or work transition that has you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed. Going through these changes can be challenging, and turning to friends and family may be difficult. If you are experiencing these or other challenges, and have decided it is time to make a change, you need someone committed, nonjudgmental, and experienced to support your efforts. I am passionate about helping people overcome challenges to achieve a full and happy life. Email is the best way to contact me.

Welcome to my Psychology Today profile! I help with all sorts of trauma related mental health issues, but regarding my specialty, I'm dedicated to helping individuals who have experienced the unique challenges of life within cults or high-demand religious groups. My mission is to provide a safe and empathetic space where you can embark on a journey of healing, self-discovery, and empowerment. Additionally, I have extensive experience in addressing and healing the impact of sexual shame on one's life caused by these organizations.

I approach therapy primarily from a relational-cultural perspective, which acknowledges healthy relationships as key to emotional and psychological functioning. My clients often seek therapy for help with loneliness/emotional disconnection from others, relationship/dating anxiety, or relational distress because of personal identity changes. I strive to help my clients gain insight into the dynamics in their life that contribute to feelings of fear and sadness. I also help clients move away from avoidant ways of dealing with stress in their lives and toward strategies that increase self-esteem and provide their lives with meaning.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I am passionate about helping individuals of all ages work through their struggles and achieve their goals. Whether it’s working with children, adolescents, or adults, I take a client-centered approach to therapy, helping individuals to gain insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and develop the skills they need to lead healthier and more fulfilling lives.

Trying to heal can be a lonely and hidden journey. Why open up if you will be judged or condemned? Seventeen years ago, I met a therapist who didn’t judge, and I knew he genuinely cared. I felt it! His genuine compassion, despite my flaws, made me realize healing is possible! From that point on, healing became my passion; it felt contagious. Helping others feel safe, heard, understood, and non-judged. Caused me to change my business career after getting my MBA, to get a 2nd Masters in Marriage & Family Therapy.
