Therapists for Teens in Salt Lake City, UT

Phoenix Rebellion Therapy treats those looking for solutions and new directions in life. Working together, our clients and therapists can find the root of the problem and a way to move forward. We support each other as a team. If you suffer from a minor issue or something more extreme, you could use an experienced ear walking you towards a better solution. Our therapists have expertise treating everything from trauma, torture, and rape, to anxiety, addiction, and depression. We team up with you and find what successfully works in reducing your symptoms and helping you progress in life.

I work with young adults, families, and couples helping them to shed light on themselves and the systems of which they are a part. I have worked predominately with clients experiencing symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, bipolar, addictive disorders, and personality disorders. I have a background in wilderness therapy and experiential treatment and love to introduce creative, alternative modes of expression to my clients, including yoga movement, narrative, and outdoor based therapies (walk and talk). By the end of our first session, most of my clients feel relieved and hopeful for their next steps.

I have been working in a drug treatment program specializing in substance use disorders with adult males. I also have experience with teenagers. I like to focus on trauma treatment and meeting a client where they are at.

The impact of our histories seems to last forever. We can be crippled by moments of regret, embarrassment, and pain, and we can suffer from physical tension, mood swings, aches, and issues focusing. We lose sleep, eat poorly, settle for mediocre work with mediocre pay, get into unfulfilling relationships, have troubled intimacy, and continue suffering day-to-day where we get stuck. We can easily see this reality is unwanted, but what can be done about it?

With more than 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, families and couples I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress management and behavioral difficulties. Is your child exhibiting anger outbursts, isolation, low motivation, irritability? Are you and your significant other having difficulty communicating, trusting each other or dealing with infidelity? Are you stressed, distracted, restless and constantly worried? I can help you and your family walk through your healing journey in a safe and confidential environment.

I believe that nothing should be deemed taboo to talk about because when we can communicate openly and without fearing judgment, only then can we best understand and accept ourselves and others. I wish to create an environment allowing for growth, healing, and self-empowerment in which my clients can embrace their individuality and discover their place in the world. I am ardent about incorporating cultural humility into my practice and I am extremely passionate about promoting self-confidence, sex positivity, body acceptance, and the creation and cultivation of healthy relationships.

I am trained and experienced in supporting individuals suffering with anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, intrusive thoughts and life transitions. I work best with clients who value curiosity and intimacy with themselves and others. In my practice, I incorporate the notion that our bodies carry the story of past traumas, experiences and emotions that oftentimes surface as distressing thoughts and physiological symptoms. I go beyond conventional problem solving to integrate your thinking, feeling, sensing, and spiritual realms and offer a compassionate and nonjudgemental space for you to navigate these complexities and improve regulation.

I provide compassionate, LGBTQIA+ and anti-racist, evidence-based care for those suffering from mood and anxiety symptoms. Teens, adults, couples and families. Telehealth and self-pay only. Utah residents only. (I cannot provide care from a full DBT program, however, I can provide DBT-informed care if that is appropriate).

Now, more than ever, do we need to take care of ourselves...and one another. Whether you are doing therapy for the first time, or the fifth time...you are doing. You are making a decision to not let the circumstances control you, but the exact opposite. You are making a decision to not just survive, but to thrive. Therapy can give you tools you never thought you would need, and perhaps never knew you had all along. Therapy can help you see the difference between things you can control, and things that can only be managed. Remember: you can't prevent the storm, but sometimes all you need...is one umbrella. It is my honor to help out.

Life is full of challenges. Sometimes calling in an expert who understands the science of emotions and common sticking points can provide relief. In therapy my ultimate goal is to help you create meaningful changes that result in a sense of peace and empowerment. We will work together to help you figure out what you can control and learn the skills to let go of the things you can’t. Using scientifically backed treatments I can help you find relief from anxiety, depression, trauma, and life stressors.

Hi. I'm Andrew Larsen. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), but more importantly I'm someone who invites the spark of change in people's lives and relationships. I help individuals and couples who want to feel better in their lives due to stress, frustration, anger or loss. We will work together to deepen your connection with others, reduce negativity, increase self-awareness, and improve relationships. I will support you in exploring your life and uncovering patterns that might not be seen, as well as working with you as the expert of your life. We will work together so YOU can continue to take control of YOUR life.

Since graduating with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Utah in 1999, I have been actively involved in encouraging clients on the path to healthy change. I believe that every person possesses the ability to solve their own problems. My role as a therapist is to ask the right questions, encourage and celebrate each courageous step in the change process, and provide a non-judgmental space for that change.

When working with clients I strive to make the therapy experience genuine, and respectful to assist in creating a safe place to process and share feelings openly. I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you know best what you need in our sessions. I love honoring your strengths and hardships and exploring ways you can evolve as an individual. Please see my website for more information and to schedule a session with me.

I help people gain insight and understanding that lead to lasting personal change. My goal is to help people improve their lives and achieve greater personal satisfaction. I realize that finding the right therapist may be challenging. Please call me to set up a free initial phone consultation to see if we feel suited to work together. I look forward to speaking with you. Experienced, well-trained, and understanding.

While I support clients of all identities and ages, I specialize in working with clients who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community, might be experiencing life & faith transitions, or have been impacted by health conditions or disabilities both personally, professionally, or familial. I am certified in the Hormonal Transgender Treatment of Minors. With 10+ years experience working with children and adolescents, I have supported young adults through feelings of anxiety, depression, self-harm, and identity exploration. I hope to offer my clients a corner of the world that provides a space of connection, curiosity, and healing.

I’m passionate about helping gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer clients in a variety of areas. I often help clients build and maintain healthy relationships, work through depression, stress, or anxiety, navigate relationships with less accepting family or friends, deal with difficulties surrounding coming out, overcome sexual challenges, and manage shame, discrimination and stigma.

We all want to feel confident and capable. However, sometimes life throws us a curve ball that we are unable to hit. This is when finding support is pinnacle to your success and growth. As part of your support team, I assist you in wading these murky waters and help you acknowledge your immense strength. My perspective is everyone has the capability of bettering themselves and improving their situation. My goal is to help you feel comfortable while gaining insight into these challenges and develop skills for positive change.

Together, we create a safe, non-judgmental space to do the work that helps you feel better. Sometimes that work can be difficult, painful, or even scary, but my clients tell me they appreciate my openness and warm sense of humor. I wish I had more time, but I'm currently prioritizing new clients who are: (1) Primarily interested in art therapy work, and/or (2) Referred by someone I know (such as a current/former colleague, student, or client), and/or (3) Seeking support with trauma, body image/acceptance, or faith deconstruction/transition. Groups may be available.
