Dr. Vanessa Bowen
*******I am currently NOT doing couples counseling******* I have been providing counseling in various settings for over 20 years, with 14 years as a licensed professional. I am a counselor who provides services in the state of GA and Utah. I hold a Doctorate of Theology in Christian Counseling and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have worked closely with Veterans, people suffering from adjustment disorder, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, couples, empty nesters and other persons who are experiencing loss or grief or relationship problems. My style of counseling includes cognitive behavioral therapy; helping you to improve your mental clarity by thinking and developing coping mechanisms to overcome the issues that are concerning to you. My approach utilizes motivational interviewing. I want to point out the incongruence in what you say versus what you do; so we can begin to realign your thoughts with your actions and behaviors. Help in whatever area you are struggling with is just an email, click, text or phone call away. What are you waiting for; lets help you become your best self.

Jessica Katz
Hello. I have been a mental health counselor for 20 years; currently residing in Utah. prior to that was NY and FL. I work with an array of concerns, including, but not limited to marriage and family, childhood trauma, attachment disorder, ADHD, disordered eating, anxiety/mood disorders, anger management, substance use, grief and loss, and some psychotic disorders/behaviors. I have also worked with individuals and families involved with divorce/blended/separation issues; including reunification and parental alienation. As a Christian, I believe in meeting people where they are, with respect, dignity, humility and compassion. My therapeutic approach includes EMDR, existentialism, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and solution-focused. Our therapeutic relationship is that of a dance; sometimes you will lead, sometimes I will lead. Our dance will be slow and steady at times and yet other times unsteady and off beat. Please understand that sometimes, the dynamic of the dance will seem uncomfortable and you will doubt whether or not you can continue; rest assured, that is where I begin to lead you. I will teach you the dance, in other words, how to cope with whatever it is you are struggling with. Then one day you will lead, by mastering the skill set needed to overcome whatever difficulties lie ahead in your given situation. It is a process that requires patience, trust and kindness on your part - being kind to yourself, but also, gradually allowing yourself to trust and be patient with the process. It takes great courage to reach out for help from a stranger! And you are very brave and courageous by taking the next best steps in this journey; this dance! I consider it a privilege to work alongside you. Blessings, Jessica

Porche Corley
About Me I help individuals and families navigate trauma, perinatal mental health challenges, anxiety, anger, grief, and life transitions with greater clarity, resilience, and confidence. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in painful patterns, or unsure how to move forward, you don’t have to face it alone. I provide a steady, compassionate space where healing feels possible, growth feels attainable, and meaningful change can take root. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Georgia, Colorado, Utah, and Virginia. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Human Services with a concentration in Family and Child Services from University of Phoenix and my Master of Social Work from Capella University. In addition to my licensure, I hold the Perinatal Mental Health Certification, am a Board Certified-TeleMental Health Provider and Human Services-Board Certified Practitioner through the Center for Credentialing and Education, and maintain credentials as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and Certified Grief Specialist. These advanced credentials allow me to provide specialized, clinically sound care while maintaining a deeply compassionate and relational approach. My work is grounded in trauma-informed, evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral strategies, strengths-based interventions, attachment-informed care, and practical emotion-regulation skills. I am particularly passionate about supporting women and parents during the perinatal period, as well as individuals carrying unresolved trauma that continues to impact daily life. I also work with clients who feel they must “hold it all together” for others while quietly struggling themselves. In Our First Session Together, Here’s What You Can Expect In our first session, we focus on building trust and clarity. I will take time to understand your story, your strengths, and what feels most pressing right now. You can expect a structured yet relaxed conversation where you are never rushed or judged. Together, we will identify meaningful goals and outline a path forward that aligns with your values and needs. The Biggest Strengths That I Bring Into Our Sessions Clients often describe my style as compassionate, steady, and empowering. I offer warmth and validation while also gently challenging unhelpful patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Therapy with me is interactive and tailored; I integrate practical tools you can apply between sessions so progress feels tangible and sustainable. Over time, many clients report feeling more emotionally regulated, confident in setting boundaries, clearer in their thinking, and more secure in their relationships. The Clients I’m Best Positioned to Serve I specialize in working with individuals and families navigating trauma, perinatal mental health challenges, anxiety, anger, grief, and major life transitions. Whether you are adjusting to parenthood, coping with loss, managing overwhelming emotions, or seeking greater clarity and balance, therapy can be a powerful step toward healing. My goal is to create a safe, structured, and supportive environment where you can process openly, build resilience, and move forward with greater strength and self-understanding. If you’re ready to take the next step, I welcome you to schedule a session and begin this work together.

Tucker Reynolds
ACT-Based Therapy for Stress, Trauma & High-Pressure Lives If you’re carrying stress, anger, pressure, or responsibility that no one else sees — you’re not alone. Many high-functioning adults learn to push through anxiety, trauma, burnout, or depression without slowing down. Over time, that strategy stops working. I’m Tucker, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor based in Utah. I work primarily with adults navigating chronic stress, trauma, anger, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and major life transitions. As a combat veteran, I understand high-pressure environments and the cost of staying in “performance mode” too long. My approach is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and trauma-informed care. ACT focuses on building psychological flexibility — the ability to face difficult thoughts and emotions without being controlled by them. We don’t pretend pain isn’t there. We work on strengthening your capacity to handle it while moving forward with intention. In therapy, we focus on: • Reducing overthinking and emotional reactivity • Managing anger and stress effectively • Breaking avoidance patterns • Clarifying personal values • Taking disciplined, values-based action My style is steady, direct, and practical. We address what’s underneath the surface without losing focus on forward movement. Therapy is collaborative, structured, and geared toward measurable progress. I am nationally board-certified (NCC, CCMHC) and trained in CAMS for suicide risk assessment and management. If you’re looking for grounded, honest work that builds resilience without ignoring reality, I’d be glad to work with you.
