As someone who has looked for a therapist a few times, I understand how challenging and intimidating that search can feel. So, thank you for being here, and for having the strength and self-compassion to do the hardest part of therapy, and reach out for help. Whether you struggle with feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, or hopelessness, therapy can help you extend grace to yourself and recognize your intrinsic worth. You deserve a safe space to vent your frustrations, explore your authentic self, silence the painful, isolating voices of trauma, and learn new ways to cope with the mental and emotional burdens you are facing.

Anxiety can overwhelm us when a situation is important or meaningful. If it wasn't important, then anxiety wouldn't be there at all. When mental health is compromised, what is most important becomes affected, such as relationships, health, and spirituality. Somehow you've be able to push through until now. If you're exhausted, lost, and hopeless, I can help. We will work on gaining insight to understand what's going on in your life, and what to do about it. Often healing occurs along the way. You will use your strengths and gain skills. You CAN overcome what is holding you back. You CAN engage with the important parts of life again.

Do you or someone you know feel stuck? Overwhelmed? Stressed? Experience feelings of anxiety or depression? Experience difficult relationships? Struggling with life transitions or changes? Do you hope for better health and closer relationships for yourself, partner, or family member(s)? Life undoubtedly offers setbacks, obstacles, and crises. Reaching for support is health and courage. Healing, wellness, and personal or relationship development are possible. I offer a safe place to sit with you wherever you may find yourself, and I work with you to identify and cultivate your desires and goals with compassion and understanding.

I'm a strong believer that with the right support, each of us are capable of healing and growing to build the strength we need to reach our goals. I'm eager to meet you where you are and support you on the goals you have for yourself. With experience in the residential and outpatient mental healthcare, I am prepared to support you with compassion in times of calm and times of crisis. I take a great deal of pride in providing an emotionally safe place for clients of all ages, backgrounds and beliefs. I hope to provide a space of healing for those struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, or personality disorders.

In the upheaval of trauma, divorce, loss or change, our very sense of self can seem lost. These pivotal experiences can leave us feeling anxious, depressed or broken, when we are in fact on a natural, yet difficult, search for new bearings. This work requires discomfort and vulnerability, and it is also the most meaningful, honest work we get to do as we navigate our own evolution. I specialize in helping women and couples heal while building the resilience to navigate future challenges. Free phone consultations. Therapy, coaching, yoga and retreats available.

Hi, I'm Leanna, a Clinical Mental Health Counselor graduate intern at Utah Lakes Neuroscience Mental Health Center, where we believe in taking an integrative approach to healing and mental health. I have experience working with teens, young adults, and returned missionaries helping them work through the limiting beliefs, decisions, and emotions holding them back from creating the life they want.

Therapy is one of the best forms of self-love and self-care. I applaud anyone who sets aside time and makes space for working on their mental health, managing their stress, dealing with life transitions, improving their relationships, addressing past trauma, or any other things that might bring them to therapy. I believe each person is the expert on themselves and has an innate ability to heal. I want to meet my clients in a spirit of collaboration and respect.

Do you feel like your emotions come out of nowhere? Your anxiety or depression getting worse, no matter what you do? A strange but relevant question I might ask is, "What did you eat today?" The foundation for mental health is nutrition. Our biochemistry is an essential part of our mental health which is often neglected. If we have low blood sugar or our brains are deficient in neurotransmitters, talk therapy will make slow progress. I can help you heal your brain with nutritional supplements and then we can process the issues that are causing you distress more effectively.

I am consistently amazed by the resilience of the human spirit, and Like Viktor Frankl, believe that “the most human of all human capabilities is the capability to turn a tragedy into a personal triumph, to transform suffering into a human achievement” (Frankl, 1963). Life’s challenges are not meant to break us but to propel us toward growth and personal fulfillment. In my practice, I am dedicated to guiding individuals through their struggles, helping them uncover their inner strength and resilience.

Do you wonder if you will ever feel like enough? Do you struggle with oppressive perfectionism? Do you suffer from shame, fear and guilt? Do you feel like the life you want is always out of reach? Let's work together to establish a strong sense of self worth, process out traumatic experiences, and find greater hope and peace in your life. I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, faith transitions, grief, anxiety, depression, and body image issues.

I specialize in treating clients with a variety of emotional-social difficulties, including trauma, anxiety, and recovering from sexual, physical, or emotional abuse. Psychotherapy is not easily described in general statements. It varies depending on the personalities of the psychologist and client, and the particular problems you are experiencing. There are many different methods I may use to deal with the problems that you hope to address. Together you and I will work on reducing symptoms and enriching your life.

In the Disney Movie, The Lion King, Rafiki the wise monkey says, “Oh yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it.” Being an avid Harry Potter and Disney fan has taught me a lot of things in my life. I have been a therapist for over 10 + years. I specialize in all types of traumas (i.e. family or origins, bullying, chronic health, divorce, adjustment issues, life change, grief, to all types of abuse and harm), depression, addiction, and anxiety. I work with individuals, families, couples, the LGBTQIA+ community, first responders/military, and ages 6-96+.

The human spirit is resilient! The past does not need to dictate your future. I take a client centered approach at meeting your goals! Wether you are healing through a past traumatic experience or are just tired of feeling down or without direction, I look forward to partnering with you on your individualized healing journey.
