Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Sugar House, Salt Lake City, UT

Reconnecting to ourselves and our support structures in an ever changing environment can be challenging. We are surrounded by expectations and demands that at times feel overwhelming and out of reach. I work with clients on reestablishing these connections and instilling mental health empowerment. We are all capable of growth and deserving of the opportunity to reset and reconnect.

Hi. Clients come to me because they want to see changes in their life quickly. I can help them get the results they want without spending years and thousands of dollars. I consider myself honored to witness the stories of courage and resilience from my clients every day. You'll make progress quickly because I'm confident you're doing some things right already. I've learned that life is complicated and each person is unique. There isn't just a one-size fits all formula for solving life's problems. It takes creativity, drive, and tenacity to pull through.

Hello there, welcome! You have taken a courageous first step. I understand that each of our path's to healing are different and unique. I am devoted to helping individuals explore and navigate these paths in order to have the best outcome, to heal, enjoy life, and gain a better understanding and love of self. You are capable of having the life you want. I am here to help in your healing process. I strongly believe that with a good therapeutic relationship, change is possible.

Therapy can be a dynamic experience creating hope and energy. Facing challenges and grieving losses we inevitably face is a powerful step in moving toward a more satisfying present. I view therapy as a collaboration with you to create your transformation and growth. Our past experiences shape our view of ourselves and in turn our potential in the future. I hope to assist you to "re-author" the stories you have about yourself not serving a positive purpose and replace them with new stories, skills and a vision that do.

We all have a sexual story. Some aspects of our story may continue to cause pain, cause embarrassment, induce shame or guilt, keep us from fulfilling our sexual potential, block us from feeling whole or cause ongoing problems in our most intimate relationships. As a trained sex therapist, I have experience to help you address challenging aspects of sexuality integrating all aspects of sexuality including the physical, the emotional, the mental and spiritual aspects.

Many people come to my office saying: "Nothing ever changes in my life"; "I'm not good enough"; "I work so hard! Where is my success?"; "Why can't I get along with my partner?"; and, "I feel so alone." In each of these settings, I use a fun-loving, real and powerful approach - using evidence-based therapies and effective interpersonal skills - to validate, accept and support my clients in achieving their goals. I do this by teaching them skills to enjoy their life and relationships, and regulate intense physical, spiritual, mental, and/or emotional thoughts and behaviors.

The best way to contact me is via email. I work with adolescents and young adults ages 13-40 experiencing anxiety, depression, and troubled relationships. I help individuals learn skills that help them regulate emotions in order to improve social relationships and daily function. My approach is a relational style of conversation to help individuals feel safe and willing to share about personal struggles. We then work together to increase insight and self-awareness through identifying negative behavioral patterns and building from innate strengths which helps one’s ability to make changes that improve their overall quality of life.

I believe in therapy! That is why I have worked with people for more than forty years and have many satisfied clients. You can have a great life no matter the issues and feelings you currently have. This possibility may be hard to imagine now, but that is what I help you do. My job is to help you clarify what you want and then to achieve this. Under stress we can all become confused about what path to take, but this is what you come to therapy to discover. With encouragement and support, you can learn to trust your path and solve whatever your current problems are.

My therapeutic passion revolves around fostering genuine connection and understanding while collaboratively seeking solutions for my clients. I am driven by the desire to empower individuals to discover their own path to happiness and well-being. I work with a variety of clients, which include adolescents and young adults navigating life transitions, healing from traumatic experiences, or grappling with anxiety disorders.

When things change inside you, things change around you.

My clients have described me as kind, authentic, and warm. I prioritize creating an emotionally safe environment to investigate internal conflict and facilitate self love and acceptance. I help clients to understand their emotions on a deeper level giving them the ability to move forward in life with new clarity and confidence. In a world that prioritizes independence and self determination, reaching out for help can often feel like fighting basic instincts. If you are struggling with feeling alone, unsupported or disconnected from yourself and others, I am so glad you are here.

Has traditional talk therapy not given you the results for long-lasting changes you wanted? Are you tired of symptom management, while never feeling like you’re getting to the root of your issues? You’re not alone and I can help. I work with adults who are looking to find meaning and purpose again in life after experiencing life challenges and traumas including faith transitions, single and complex trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, women’s issues, anxiety and depression. My therapeutic approach is addressing the whole individual, mind and body to create real growth and healing.

I understand the importance of finding a therapist who makes you feel like they actually get you and truly care, and that it's not always easy to open up to someone new. This may be something that you have been thinking about doing for a long time, but for a variety of reasons you have put it off. Whatever has brought you here and whatever your prior experiences with therapy are, I am so excited and honored to get to be a part of this journey with you.
