Therapists in Utah

I am a marriage and family therapist with 9 years of experience counseling a wide range of clients. I have worked with clients on grief and loss, depression and anxiety as well as substance abuse concerns. I take a warm approach with clients and use a client centered approach to therapy. I have been trained in cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy and approach the sessions in a collaborative manner always working together with people I am working with. I respect that you took this step to seek out a listening ear and I look forward to working together with you on this journey. I was born in New York and as a young child my family moved out to Los Angeles and I have been here ever since. Growing up I was always fascinated by the field of psychology and when I was going for my Bachelors Degree I therefore choose to major in psychology. I attended Touro College Los Angeles for my Bachelors degree and then pursued my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy through Touro University Worldwide. When working with clients I take a warm and empathetic approach and really try to hear what the client is saying. Therapy can be very rewarding but it is often challenging to talk about the difficulties that we face. In session I strive to create a supportive and safe space where we can work together mindfully and without judgement to increase wellness. Thank you for taking the time to look over my profile. I look forward to working together!

I am licensed in Texas and Utah and have many years of experience in the field of therapy. I work with clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage and I am thankful you are ready to get started! I would enjoy being part of your journey to better days. My goal is that you leave feeling empowered and have tools to take with you.

I believe that that the value of therapy is having an objective person's eyes and ears on your struggles and that the process can help you move forward when you are feeling "stuck." Identifying your strengths and ideal solutions are part of a treatment plan that helps us stay focused and determine how effective therapy is in your life. Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy mode I use to discover what thoughts, feelings and belief systems are at play in feeling "stuck," and produces new ideas about approaching your issues. I am now very excited about implementing the use of a fairly new mode of therapy known as "ACT" that stands for "Acceptance and Commitment Therapy". People walk through this self-discovery process not because it's easy, but to feel better, lighter and more effective in navigating their lives. For the best therapeutic outcome, there needs to be trust and respect between the client and the therapist. I encourage any and all questions to see if we could be a good fit! I have recently decided to add to my bio by specifically letting potential clients know that most of my professional career as a therapist has been in working with sex offenders, their families and victims, as well as having expertise in domestic violence issues. Extreme/ toxic emotional abuse issues are becoming very common and there are now clearly defined cycles of those types of abuse. There seems to be a growing need for attention to these specific problems and a need for a professional who has a lot of experience in addressing these issues. It should also be noted that if someone is in need of sex offender therapy, they must have successfully completed a legally recognized program first. In my private time I enjoy growing organic gardens and cooking with the results, playing outdoors in every season- skiing, camping, hiking, kayaking, and love playing and hiking with my new dog (rescue), Blue. I look forward to meeting you and helping you to discover healthier and more authentic ways of relating to people, but especially ourselves.

My main approach is "cognitive behavioral therapy." How we see things makes much of our suffering. We will take a close look at "self talk," because it's kind of "programmed" for misery. There is a profound way in which our "animal brain" governs behavior, but our everyday thinking tends to shame and blame ourselves for things not under conscious control. I will invite you to take a very close look at what seems to be happening now. We might explore how past trauma is acting on us right now and experiment with exercises to calm the triggered brain. My life experience is rich with problems many of us face. I make use of knowing depression, anxiety, family conflict, addiction as well as my clinical training, intuition, and sometimes wisdom from different spiritual traditions. I'm not religious, but I respect the divinity within us all. Today's life is so prone to isolation and loneliness. We get to judging ourselves for things actually beyond our control. I would rather that we learn how precious we actually are. It's often hard to disclose what we are suffering so even the idea of therapy is scary. We want someone else to "fix it" for us, but soon learn it's going to take some work. Don't give up or settle for a certain level of miserable. Nourish curiosity and personal growth. BetterHelp intends either 30 or 45 minute sessions. I prefer 45 min. Except for Mondays or if I am ill, I check the platform daily to catch your messages. Disclosure here: I am not a morning person, and I've had little success with students of Rocky Mountain University, but success with their employees. I have completely failed to really help women whose partner is into porn. If you decide to work with me, read and "sign" the disclosure form. Explore the platform to find the free classes and groups, find and try out the "video session test," and figure out how to schedule your first appointment. Thank you for considering me to be your therapist!
