Therapists in Smithfield, UT

I work with couples and families who need help with change. After you have 'tried everything' but it still hasn't worked, come see me for a different approach to resolving problems that you face. I have worked in mental health for 18 years and LDS Family Services for 10 years, and now in private practice for the last 9 years. With my experience I can treat any marital problems you might be facing, and any major mental health problem or sexually addictive behavior problem. My motto is "Change for the Better" because I believe that therapy should help you make the changes in your life that make a difference.

I love empowering women to better manage anxiety, depression, perfectionism, people-pleasing, trauma, eating disorders, body image issues, boundary struggles & faith crisis to build the lives they've always wanted! I specialize in women's mental, emotional, & relational health & I'm passionate about helping my clients get unstuck using my professional training, experience, specialized knowledge, humor, empathy, & compassion. I also enjoy helping couples learn skills to improve their relationships. Change can be a difficult & painful process & I would be honored to help you walk that difficult path. You don't have to face it alone.

Let’s get started together. It’s easy to feel alone, and we understand how hard change can be. At our core, we know that change is possible as we heal and strengthen our relationships with those who love us best. We improve our relationships as we “come to ourselves” with new clarity and bolstered commitment to openness and healthier habits of acceptance and connection.

In our daily lives, we face numerous challenges, turmoil, and trouble. We may feel triggered, alone, anxious, frustrated, depressed, irritated, stressed, overwhelmed, and conflicted. We may believe we cannot get out of our dark, deep hole. GOOD NEWS: YOU ARE NOT ALONE! At Bright Hope Christian Counseling Center (BHCCC), we believe that God is our ultimate healer and restorer of broken hearts and lives. Together with God, we can find the freedom to help us restart our life and relationships that have brought us down and devastated us for generations.

My Name is Travis Christensen, LCMHC, I trust that whatever you resist will persist! I offer those with an open mind for new ideas and seek to create long-lasting success to start that journey today. I am confident that individuals have the right to achieve and be all they desire. We have the power and capacity to decide on what we are going to tolerate in our lives. I challenge each of us to get into a great, beautiful state of thinking, and fully enjoy the benefits of our hard work. I am certain that knowledge is only potential power, and when we become truly powerful, we are courageous enough to execute that knowledge.

I truly enjoy working with people of all ages and seeing how they grow and change. We all run into times of crisis or struggle and whether it is something that requires intensive work or maybe seems quite small, there is hope for the future. I have experience working with children in play therapy, and teens and adults using an eclectic and person centered approach including CBT, ACT, psychoanalysis, DBT, as well as other modalities. I am one of three therapists in the area that have been trained in Trauma Conversion Therapy which is amazing for trauma, anxiety, depression, and OCD.

Brene Brown once said "Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen." We all have parts we're afraid to show to the world. Therapy's greatest gift is offering a non-judgmental space to be our true selves and let someone in. Self-acceptance, self-grace, and the belief that we are enough are often missing in life. Not enough people talk about it, but I want you to share with me. Let me see your real, authentic, messy, beautiful self. I'll walk with you as you find your own answers and solutions, gently guiding you when needed. If you genuinely want change and are willing to try new things, you’re my ideal client.

Life is an interesting mixture of both ups and downs. Having the courage to ask for help with difficult situations should not be an unpleasant process in and of itself. The process of learning and growing should be filled with encouragement and increased happiness, even when discussing difficult topics. In my 25+ years of experience, I have helped people with a variety of obstacles including, marital/couples strife, parent/child conflict, adoption and attachment issues, grief and trauma related difficulties, substance use problems, child/adolescent behavioral issues, school/educational planning, and mental health diagnoses.

I draw from a strong academic and clinical background combined with personal life experiences to provide life changing interventions. I have a PhD in psychology, two master's degrees and am licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist. I have considerable experience with children, adolescents and adults in diverse settings, i.e., mental health centers, U.S. military behavioral health centers, public school systems, wilderness programs, therapeutic boarding schools, and private practice. I gained much of my specialized experience with couples while employed by the US Army in Germany and recently completed the advanced training for certification as an Emotionally Focused Couple Therapist.

When things change inside you, things change around you.

As Christian counselors, we believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that He came to reveal the Father’s heart & through His life, death & resurrection He decisively accomplished Gods saving work. He engages us in the Divine Relationship that we were created by, for, through and in. We seek, along with you, the client, loving purpose, healing, & direction of the Trinity in the counseling sessions. As licensed therapist, we consider our efforts inadequate apart from the grace & presence of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are blessed & humbled to go to work each day & see Christ working in people's lives in an intimate way.

I believe that each person has the potential to live the life they truly want and that lasting change is possible. As a strengths-based therapist, I help a client find their strengths are built on and utilized in therapy to help the client work through the difficulties they are experiencing. I create a space where you can tell me anything without fear of judgment or me telling you how you should live life. Therapy is an interactive process and it shouldn’t look the same for each person. I love helping people build their confidence and becoming more assertive. I want to help you build the skills to live your life to the fullest!

Hi, I am Sue Middleton. A little about me: I grew up in Los Angeles, California. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology, degrees in marriage and family therapy and clinical social work, as well as a doctorate in family sociology.

Are you struggling in your marriage or relationships? Do you have mental health challenges to overcome? Would you like to find a counselor who is committed to helping you resolve your issues? Through behavioral therapy and mindfulness, I can help you address trauma, abuse, stress, PTSD, bipolar disorder, major depression including postpartum depression, and severe anxiety.

I am excited to hear your story unfold as we celebrate your strengths, as well as process emotional overwhelm, challenging life transitions, or painful past events. I will meet you wherever you are on your journey, providing a compassionate, judgment-free space where we can work together to access your resilience and build a path toward personal empowerment. I believe in you, no matter what you believe. My afternoon and evening availability might be a good fit for those who work traditional hours.

It has been my great fortune to provide psychological counseling to children, adolescents, adults, and families on the Wasatch Front for many years. I have discovered that psychotherapy works best when provided in a supportive and accepting environment. I take an active role; yet believe that respect and collaboration are critical in the therapeutic process. Through collaboration, we will work together to find ways of reducing stress and anxiety in your life, while also establishing new ways to cope with difficulties that are consistent with your personal values and beliefs.

My goal as your therapist is to provide the best service I can through a personally tailored approach! Thriving instead of just surviving. I am a strong believer in meeting those I serve where they are.  Whether you are experiencing loss, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, a life transition, stress or need a sounding board, I am here to be a support!
