Therapists in Utah

For over a decade, I've dedicated myself to supporting children, teens, and families through emotional and behavioral health challenges. Whether you're facing mental health issues or seeking greater fulfillment, know that you're not alone. My therapeutic approach emphasizes collaboration, focusing on your individual needs, interests, and strengths. Change happens at home and I strongly recommend family and/or couples counseling to be part of most people's treatment. Together, we'll create a safe, empowering space for lasting personal growth and healing.

Do you ever wonder if ‘we are just too different’? Do you wish you could ‘communicate better’? Are you experiencing chaos and/or trauma due to infidelity?

I'm here to provide you with compassionate, evidence-based care that can help you feel more confident, stable, and fulfilled.

Hope is a powerful tool. Research has shown that progress and healing can be made when someone has it. Adversity, challenges, trauma, abuse, betrayal, abandonment, long-term illness, couple and family conflict, divorce, single-parenting, blending families, and grief can cause anyone to struggle. I have experienced these things and chose to further my education to know how to pay it forward to others seeking relief. Even the most extreme circumstances can be neutralized through therapy.

Welcome to therapy! I want you to feel affirmed and supported during our sessions, so I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can freely express your identity, navigate societal pressures, and develop healthy coping mechanisms.

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “How did I get here?” Sometimes life feels hard, overwhelming, and chaotic. Maybe you just don’t know where to start or you feel lost. Maybe you’re embarrassed that you can’t handle things on your own or like you don’t know who to ask for help. Perhaps you're going through a rough patch or you're looking to improve your relationships with friends, family, or partner. Or, maybe your child is struggling with anger, sadness, or anxiety.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist associate working under supervision. In my three years as a clinician I have served couples, families, and individuals experiencing problems from depression and anxiety to trauma or compulsive behaviors. I have worked in private practice, residential treatment, college mental health, and community therapy locations. My educational focus has been in sexuality, trauma, and relationship-aware therapy. I listen to your stories and problems and partner with you in healing, reimagining, and renewing your life. I use therapy modalities that emphasize the strengths you already possess.

One of the most difficult things about depression, anxiety and PTSD is that you can feel all alone in the experience. It can be hard to share it with others especially when friends and family know you as the girl-who-can-do-it-all. That disconnect from others is painful but even worse is the disconnect you can feel from yourself. Therapy can provide a relationship and a process to help you move forward.

I love working with clients who are ready to see a transformation in their lives- whether that be in their relationships, mindset, or behaviors! I specialize in teenagers, adults, and marriage counseling. My goal as a therapist is to build excellent rapport through compassion and empathy to ensure safety and trust. I understand being vulnerable can be scary, but with a healthy client and therapeutic relationship, one can begin to heal safely from trauma, learn proper emotional regulation, and make everlasting positive changes! I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your goals.
