I have a Master’s degree in Mental Health/ Mental Health Counseling. Which has enabled me to get my Clinical Mental Health Counselor license in the State of Utah. I have 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. In that time, I have gained a lot of experience in the areas of individual, couples, parents and family therapy. I have several areas of which I have gained expertise in such as; trauma treatment, substance abuse treatment, attachment and family dynamics, as well as grief and loss. I believe that for any change in someone’s life they need to first have a safe place to start from. I try and create that safe place in counseling, to allow you as my client to decide what changes you want to make and how to overcome whatever obstacle their facing now. I work from a place of compassion and empathy as well as straight honesty. I believe that we are all doing the best we can in life and sometimes we just need a little help to change where we are. In my life I have many things going on but for me what helps keep me grounded and moving forward are my desire to help others, my dog Coda and my creative spirit. I am a native Utah resident and have experience both in and out of the LDS church. I currently run a parenting group that allows me to reach many needy families and I find it very fulfilling.

Hello! My name is Caroline, and I have held a license in clinical social work for 15 years; and have been in the helping profession for over 20 years. Currently, I am practicing in the State of Utah; however, prior to this, I lived and worked in the great State of Michigan. I have served families and individuals experiencing homelessness; mental health concerns; addictions; family conflict; and other significant life events. I have always been proud to serve in my profession; I am continuously humbled and impressed by the strength and resiliency of the human spirit. My counseling style is warm and collaborative. We are in this journey together; and I firmly believe in the importance of the therapeutic alliance. I believe in treating everyone with dignity and respect, and recognize that it is a gift when someone commits to sharing their story with me. My counseling approach combines cognitive-behavioral; client-centered; solution focused; and motivational interviewing counseling styles. I believe the way that we think about ourselves directly impacts how we view and participate in the world around us. A change in perspective can encourage light in seemingly dark places. Change is never easy, but I believe that you have the tools and drive to change anything you desire. Congratulations on taking the first steps toward positive change in your life. I look forward to the opportunity to encourage, support, and empower you!

Welcome!! My name is Shannon LaTray, and I am a licensed clinical counseling professional in Montana, Utah, Maine, the District of Columbia, Oregon, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. I have experience working therapeutically with youth, teens, adults, and families regarding mental health and addiction issues. My approach to therapy is holistic and patient-centered, focusing on treating the whole person rather than just specific symptoms. I believe in addressing the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual aspects of a person's life to promote overall well-being. I also prioritize the individual needs and preferences of each patient, tailoring the therapy experience to their unique circumstances and goals. This dynamic approach allows for a more personalized and effective therapeutic experience. Additionally, I am a certified Gracious Space Trainer. My Approach... In my work, I commonly use a combination of several theoretical approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and humanistic therapy. I find that integrating elements from these different approaches allows me to address a wide range of client needs and preferences. CBT helps to identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. Psychodynamic therapy explores unconscious processes and past experiences, and humanistic therapy emphasizes empathy, authenticity, and the client's subjective experience. By drawing from these different theoretical approaches, I strive to provide comprehensive and effective therapy tailored to each individual. My Focus... I typically work with a diverse range of clients, including individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. I have a strong background in helping clients navigate divorce and relationship challenges, career changes, and significant life adjustments individually and as couples. Overall, I am committed to supporting and guiding clients facing various challenges. My Communication Style... I strive to create a warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental environment for my clients. I want my clients to feel safe, supported, and heard during our sessions. I aim to foster an atmosphere of trust and openness where clients feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and emotions. Working with me, clients often describe feeling understood, validated, and empowered to work through their challenges. I seek to provide a sense of calm and reassurance while also encouraging growth and self-discovery. In addition, I challenge clients to consider alternative perspectives and mindsets and to actively participate in finding solutions to their identified concerns. I believe in empowering clients to explore different ways of thinking and to take an active role in their own journey toward resolution and personal growth. By fostering a collaborative approach, I aim to help clients develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their situations while working towards positive outcomes. My journey to Mental Healthcare... My counseling journey has been incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. I have had the privilege of working with diverse clients, each with their own unique experiences and challenges. Reflecting on my 20-year journey in mental healthcare, including over 8.5 years as a licensed professional, I value the diverse experiences I have gained. From implementing a mental health intake program in a men’s state prison to promoting a patient-centered care model at the Montana State Hospital, I have learned the significance of effective systems and teamwork. At a residential treatment facility for substance abuse, I developed a program that encouraged shared experiences and empowerment among participants and a team centered approach to support staff. I have supported clients aged 2 to 82, focusing on building meaningful connections through individual sessions, couples counseling, and group therapy. I focus on building deep, meaningful connections that uplift and empower individuals as they navigate their paths toward healing and wellness. I am excited about the opportunities ahead to continue fostering growth and resilience in those I serve. My goals for you... When approaching goal setting with my clients, I believe in taking a collaborative and client-centered approach. I work with my clients to identify their individual needs, values, and aspirations. Together, we establish realistic, measurable, and meaningful goals that align with their personal growth and well-being. I encourage clients to participate actively in the goal-setting process, ensuring that their aspirations and desires are at the forefront. Additionally, I support clients in breaking down larger goals into manageable steps, providing them with the tools and guidance needed to track their progress and celebrate their achievements along the way. My first session with you... During the first session, clients can expect a welcoming and supportive atmosphere where they are encouraged to share their concerns, experiences, and goals. I aim to establish a strong rapport with clients, actively listen to their stories, and gain a thorough understanding of their unique perspectives and needs. Additionally, I provide an overview of the counseling process, discuss confidentiality and the client-counselor relationship, and answer any questions or concerns the client may have. Together, we begin the process of exploring their challenges, identifying goals, and laying the foundation for our work together. Overall, clients can expect a compassionate and collaborative approach as we embark on their journey towards growth and healing.

Hello! My name is Kevin Wilbanks, D. Min, MA, NCC, L.P.C., L.C.P.C., L.C.M.H.C. "Kevin" is fine! Thank you for reaching out to me! I am here to collaborate with you to get from where you are to where you want to be in your life. I facilitate client collaboration towards change in an environment of listening and understanding, non-judgmental consideration, dependability, and honesty. Our relationship in our work together is the most important thing, so you can grow as a person to be more of who you want to be. Therapy helps you resolve past interpersonal problems and overcomes barriers to growth by offering a “corrective emotional experience” through your relationship with me, as your therapist. An example is, finally feeling heard and understood by someone! It takes courage to reach out. Not only that, it is smart to do so. Part of growing in our competence in life is knowing our strengths and our limitations. Outsourcing is a good idea, especially if you have used your skills and resources and have not been able to change an aspect of your life. Everyone outsources. We do so when we hire someone to do any service on our house or car. We outsource when we have an athletic coach. I am an expert you can also outsource to, for more personal areas of life improvement. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I help clients capture a greater sense of wellbeing and control over their lives by teaching them new approaches to solving old problems. They may experience a sense of wellbeing and control they have never experienced before! My clients often come to me for counseling when they are experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief & loss, out of control anger, dissolution of a marriage or marital conflict, parenting challenges, life changes, and other life pain or challenges. To make life barriers become opportunities for growth, control and wellbeing, I help clients overcome these experiences by teaching them how to calm body and mind to aid them in decision making. I help clients gain awareness and insight into how the past is related to the present and help them to make different choices for their future. I help clients get unstuck from their failure in relationships or reaching other life goals by helping them change self-sabotaging beliefs, self-talk, and fears to more reality-based thoughts that have a powerful and positive impact on how they feel emotionally. I coach clients on adapting their behavioral skills to meet life challenges more effectively. In order to get to know me before we begin, here is my bio: Dr. Kevin Wilbanks received his Doctorate in Counseling (D. Min) from Covington Theological Seminary, Rossville, Georgia in 1998. He completed his Master of Arts (MA) from Argosy University, Atlanta, Georgia, in 1995, studying Counseling Psychology. Dr. Wilbanks received his Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Interdisciplinary Studies, Social Sciences in 1993 from N.W. Christian University, Eugene, Oregon. Dr. Wilbanks has worked as a clinical counselor for fourteen years, world-wide, supporting the United States Armed Forces mission. From 2000-2008, Dr. Wilbanks served as CEO of Counseling Associates of West Georgia, Inc., where he specialized in rural counseling and mediation, serving children, adolescents, adults, families and couples. He has more extensive experience to list in this bio. He enjoys playing drums and percussion, hiking, fitness, travelling and reading.
