Hi, my name is Spencer, thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my profile. Finding the right therapist can be tricky at times. Here's a bit about myself to help you see if we'd be a good fit. My main goal as a therapist is to help others live in congruence with themselves. I believe peace comes and shame is reduced when one is aligned with their personal values. A lot of different events can push us out of alignment, and therapy is great at getting us back on track. Areas I spend a lot of time in are: self esteem, substance abuse, relationships, men's/women's issues, life transitions, anxiety/depression.

Hi, I currently live in the great state of Utah for the past 25 years. Before that I lived in Hawaii for 5 years, and 22 years in my motherland, Tahiti, in French Polynesia. I am a non-judgmental trauma-informed Psychotherapist and Marriage/Family Therapist with over 23 years of clinical experience who has worked in private practice, in different levels of residential treatment settings, and currently at an outpatient treatment clinic. I have learned much from working in those different settings.

Hi, I’m Pam. Originally from Brazil, I’ve called this place home for 20 years. Life has a way of preparing us in unexpected ways, and I believe my personal and professional experiences have shaped me into the therapist I am today. One of my favorite quotes is, “We can’t read the label from inside the bottle.” It reminds me that sometimes we need a fresh perspective to uncover our own strength and potential. Therapy can provide that space—a safe, compassionate environment to explore, heal, and grow.

Tired of going in circles with talk therapy? Me too…I find that many problems we experience (unwanted compulsive behaviors, low self-esteem, trauma, faith crisis, suicidal desire, etc.) are rooted in subconscious limiting beliefs and nervous system dysregulation, which are formed by our relationships. Targeting these beliefs and changing our relationship with ourselves while developing powerful skills refreshes the narrative and purpose of our lives. There is meaning in all of it and beauty really does come from the ashes.

My philosophy is that we don’t go to therapy to feel good; rather, we go to therapy to get good at feeling. Trauma, abuse, prejudice, shame, and mental illness can all lead to difficulties with experiencing emotions and being accepting of ourselves. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space to help you navigate, identify, and explore your feelings and behaviors. I specialize in working with women and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I am conscious of all my clients’ social identities and the impact of oppression and trauma.

As an outpatient generalist I love working with people of all ages. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, emotional baggage, difficult life events, or something is just “off”—I have specialized training to facilitate a healing space where we collaboratively discover, process/transform, and empower you to feel better, heal, and take good care of yourself moment-to-moment for a fulfilling life. I am moving toward specialization in OCD treatment and enjoy working with this tricky phenomenon. I also conduct some assessment as needed, to clarify “what is going on” and provide helpful treatment direction.

The human mind can get stuck in negative emotions, beliefs, and other patterns which make it feel impossible to move forward in life. I specialize in interventions (particularly EMDR, ACT, and BWRT) that enable the mind to let release old patterns quickly and often permanently. I specialize in treating trauma and anxiety. But these same interventions work wonders with addictions, depression, and other serious problems.

My 10 years as a therapist have exposed me to a variety of challenges from deescalating unsafe situations to mediating complex relationship barriers. In my experience trauma can often be found at the core of depression, anxiety, family/spouse conflict, disordered eating, sexual confusion and addiction. All of these challenges can create a sense of feeling stuck, unfulfilled and alone. In some cases, these struggles can be intimidating to address without help. My belief is that therapy acts as a safe place for you to address those struggles in an empowering way; one that gives a sense of purpose, and leaves you feeling connected.

One of my favorite quotes by Brené Brown says, "Shame corrodes the very part of us that believes we are capable of change." No matter what you've been through or where you are now, I strongly believe you have the power to heal and become the best version of yourself. When we go through a challenging or traumatic event, our sense of self can become tainted, we may feel lost, and we may even no longer view ourselves as powerful, strong, or courageous. It can be scary to navigate that alone.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
