Menachem Stulberger
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!
Cybele Blood
Hi, I’m an LCSW therapist with 15 years of clinical psychotherapy practice and a massage therapy practice before that. I've been caring about people's health and wellness for a long time. I work hard to offer excellent therapy services to every client. You should feel heard and honored your sessions, with a good balance of supportive therapeutic presence and structured therapeutic work. We will build rapport together and use evidence-based treatments to best serve your needs. Together we will build your coping and life skills toolbox and create your best future. I enjoy assisting people with a variety of issues including anxiety, work stress, life transitions, depression, and communication skills, among others. I find it very rewarding providing support for other professionals in health care fields. I have specialty training to support traumatic grief and bereavement. You will also find me very well-trained in many therapeutic modalities, including CBT, DBT, somatic work, several trauma-focused approaches, mindfulness, depth therapy, Gottman Method, IFS, and more. I am a bit of a unicorn in that I am studied in female phenotype high-masking autism. I'd like assist you in being kinder to yourself and having your life feeling and functioning better than when you start working with me. I will say up front that I do not think significant suicidality and BetterHelp are a good clinical fit. I have worked with many many suicidal clients and even spent years working in psych hospitals, day treatment, and IOPs, but on this platform I won't be able to take on clients who are facing significant safety challenges of suicidal ideation or self harm. I would encourage you to find in-person therapy resources or local therapy practices. Respecting diversity and understanding social justice is very important to me, and I strive to be culturally competent for a range of client backgrounds. I lived in a lot of places in the US and bring a lot of NYC and LA flavor to sessions, yet I have worked to understand Utahn cultures. I work with a lot of people in the kink, ENM/poly, and social activist communities, yet also a fair amount of quite conservative Utahns. I definitely work with a lot of people who identify as LGBTQ+. I look forward to meeting you. Please know that online therapy can be hugely effective for you. Let’s get started.

Willie Johnson
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….

Find a therapist near you in Tooele, Utah
Finding a therapist near you in Tooele, Utah starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals.

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.

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.
