I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I began my college education, located in a humble community of Laie, Hawaii where I was raised until the age of 21. After leaving my hometown, I completed my remaining undergraduate degree in psychology through distance learning and later earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2007 from the University of Phoenix. I currently practice via online telehealth only and have done so since the beginning of the COVID pandemic. My therapy approach is eclectic, meaning I combine different therapeutic approaches based on the presenting concerns and goals that are adapted to the needs of the person via the use of cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, brief therapy and solution-focused therapy with particular attention to the psychoanalytic processes, which emphasizes how life events and relationship experiences both past and present may be affecting your current relationships, issues and/or circumstances. What I can bring to the counseling environment to help you with this is a style that I believe to be approachable and warm so that my patients are able to 1) actively process and explore, 2) find their way, 3) learn about themselves and 4) grow to be directors of their life. In short, to help you have the most successful experience in counseling it is important to me that we work together in establishing what your needs are and how I can be of most benefit to you. With that comes responsibility for your mental health and dedication of your time to your mental health needs. To be more specific, I ask that you not just do therapy sessions once a week for 30-45 minutes but that also be proactive and committed with working on your mental health needs outside of therapy as well via homework that is completed in a timely manner as opposed to completing it right before your sessions as I need time to look over said homework and cannot do this effectively when it is sent back the day of. I am genuinely interested in what brings you to therapy and hope that you would feel comfortable working with me as I look forward to working with you. Lani

Hi, I'm Kory. I'm an experienced mental health therapist with over 10 years of experience providing outpatient therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and high-stress life challenges. I also enjoy helping people who experience performance anxiety, pressure, self-doubt, and burnout, as well as individuals who want to improve focus, confidence, and emotional resilience in order to reach their potential. My work focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns, strengthening emotional regulation, and developing practical skills that translate into everyday life, relationships, and personal growth. I take an integrative therapy approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT). These approaches help individuals heal, take personal responsibility, and overcome unhelpful thinking patterns that may be holding them back. I encourage clients to quiet their thoughts, focus on their strengths, and become more aware of maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. Together, we work to replace these with healthier thoughts and behaviors that help you move toward your goals. I strive to build a strong, supportive, and collaborative relationship with my clients so they feel comfortable learning and applying new coping skills that lead to meaningful and lasting change.

Hello, my name is Willie Johnson, MSW, LCSW- Thank You for considering my services... I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in NV and Utah, with more than 30 years of experience helping individuals, couples, families, and groups address challenges including anger, trauma, attachment issues, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and other mood disorders. One of the most important parts of healing is learning to distinguish your true identity from your thoughts, feelings, emotions, and physical experiences. You are not your body. You are not your feelings. You are not your emotions. While you experience these things, they do not define who you truly are. This idea led me to write about sadness in a new way — as something clever enough to manipulate us the way a pimp manipulates: through control, false promises, and emotional dependency. I explore this concept, along with practical tools for reclaiming your identity from it, in my books available at www.SadnessIsAPimp.com. I often recommend these resources to clients as a companion to our work together. Within our therapeutic relationship, you will learn to recognize and identify the emotional patterns and secondary responses that may be attempting to manipulate, control, or negatively shape your character and personality. Therapy is designed to help you release guilt, pain, trauma, and emotional burdens caused by harm done to you, harm done to others, or even harm you may have caused yourself. Our goal is not simply to cope with emotional struggles, but to work toward true healing and emotional freedom. Through self-reflection and therapeutic guidance, you can become more self-aware, challenge unhealthy thought patterns, and develop healthier ways of functioning in everyday life. I believe prioritizing your mental health is an investment in yourself and an active step toward healing. If you'd like to explore these ideas further outside of session, visit www.SadnessIsAPimp.com for my books and additional resources. Best Regards, Willie E. Johnson, LCSW --- "Four Stages To Your Emotional Health & Healing" 1. Love Everybody, 2. Forgive Everybody, 3. Respect Everybody, 4. Be Kind To Everybody & 5. Hold Everybody Accountable -- Starting With Yourself. I look forward to working with you. ________________________________________ SPECIALTIES • Anger • Stress, Anxiety • Family conflicts • Trauma and abuse • Parenting issues • Relationship Issues • Depression Also experienced in: Addictions, Relationship issues, Grief, Anger management, Self-esteem, Coping with life changes, Abandonment, Attachment Issues, Domestic Violence, Family Problems… LGBT , Trauma and abuse, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Eating disorders, Parenting issues Career difficulties, Coaching , Compassion fatigue , Abandonment….

Hello, and welcome - I'm glad you're here! You might be feeling stuck in patterns that don’t make sense, overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, or carrying the weight of past experiences that continue to show up in your daily life. Many of my clients appear high-functioning on the outside while internally feeling exhausted, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. I specialize in helping adults work through the lasting effects of childhood trauma, especially when it shows up as anxiety, depression, self-doubt, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, or difficulty feeling grounded and secure in themselves and their relationships. My approach is focused on deeper, long-term healing rather than short-term symptom relief. I primarily use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help process and resolve the root experiences that are keeping you stuck, along with other evidence-based approaches tailored to your individual needs and goals. Therapy with me is collaborative, thoughtful, and paced in a way that supports real, lasting change. My practice is best suited for individuals who are motivated to explore the deeper roots of their struggles and engage in the process of lasting healing. Trauma therapy is often a longer-term process rather than a brief course of treatment, and meaningful change takes time. If you're looking for a space to better understand yourself, work through what's been weighing on you, and create lasting change, I would be honored to support you in that process. If you are currently in an active crisis (such as suicidal thoughts requiring immediate intervention or ongoing domestic violence), are seeking couples therapy, or are primarily looking for brief, solution-focused counseling, my approach may not be the best fit. In those cases, a provider who specializes in those areas would likely better meet your needs. I work with adults (18+) and do not provide therapy for children or adolescents. My availability is typically between 7:00 AM and 4:00 PM Mountain Time, Monday through Thursday. If that aligns with your schedule, I look forward to connecting!

Find a therapist near you in Castle Valley, Utah

Finding a therapist near you in Castle Valley, Utah starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Utah is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you. 

The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Utah, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Utah, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Utah

Online therapy and in-person therapy both connect you with a licensed professional, and the main difference is how you meet. In Utah, online therapy through BetterHelp lets you have sessions by phone, video, or in-app messaging, so you can meet from home or on a schedule that fits your life. In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows. Online therapy may be more accessible for people with busy schedules, limited transportation, or a preference for a more discreet setting. Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.

Finding a therapist that accepts insurance in Utah

BetterHelp accepts insurance through many major insurance plans. Insurance availability and coverage may vary by state, plan, provider network, and therapist availability, and deductible status. Eligible members' average copay is $23 per session.

If you prefer to pay without insurance, BetterHelp subscriptions range from $70 to $100 per week, billed as an alternative way to access the same care, and you can use HSA and FSA funds toward the cost. For a full breakdown of how BetterHelp works with insurance plans, see BetterHelp insurance coverage.
