Dr. Manuel Evangelista
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker(LCSW) in Utah and my practice is grounded in the synthesis of social, biological, and psychological theories. I provide individual, group, and family therapy integrating psychodynamic and humanistic approaches with the transformative healing methods and spirituality to adults age 19 to 69 years old. My goal in therapy is to move my patients beyond symptom reduction to the achievement of balance in the physical, emotional and, spiritual dimensions. My style of helping is reflective of eastern healing traditions and western neuroscience. While most approaches to mental health treatments are focused on changing distressing events and experiences, my emphasis is on accepting, finding meaning, and tolerating distress. A trauma survivor myself, I came to view pain and distress as part of the human experience that cannot be entirely avoided or removed. The inability to accept this immutable fact itself leads to increased pain and suffering. A Zen practitioner and mindfulness teacher I have both graduate and postgraduate education in social work and counseling. I am also trained in psychotropic medication and can work with your prescriber. Through the many years of clinical work and advocacy, I've learned to embody a warrior-like woundedness and the courage to sit down and listen. Come in.

Dr. Meredith Mitstifer
I am a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of experience working with the cancer community, grief and loss, as well as providing empowerment and support to those looking to make intentional progress towards life / career goals. As a cancer survivor myself, adjusting to a diagnosis and treatment can be difficult. Not only are their physical side effects, but often emotional and relational effects as well. Additionally, grief and/or loss is difficult. There is no right or wrong way to grieve, as grief is unique to each individual. All too often do many suffer in silence. If you are looking for support to help navigate the waters, I can help. I also enjoy assisting individuals with setting intentions and making forward steps to meeting their goals. If you are looking for a change, but are not sure where to start, I can also help you organize your efforts, provide resources, relieve stress, ease tension and afford a safe space to problem solve through education, cognitive behavioral techniques, motivation and humor. My clients receive education and training in mindfulness skills, relaxation practices, decision-making, mood management, and interpersonal effectiveness. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
