Substance Use Therapists in Utah

I look forward to meeting my clients where they are at and working together to create a treatment plan for where my clients want to be.

I have experience working with substance use, depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD, as well as other mental health issues

As a therapist, I've been described as authentic, knowledgeable, and compassionately direct. With me you will find a soft place for hard conversations –‒ a place to see yourself, your environment, and your choices more clearly so you can best decide how to create peace in the struggle of living.

I have worked extensively with clients from all walks of life, from professionals to full-time parents, and have years of experience with clients struggling with relationships, parenting, substance use & other mental health issues. I also enjoy working with teens/young adults as they navigate an often chaotic & isolating stage, and helping clients reach their potential through performance coaching(sports psych applied elsewhere) & working with those struggling with anxiety, depression, confidence, or discovering passion/direction in life. I like people, and creating authentic connections at work. My ideal client is probably you!

We all have an inherent need to make sense of our lives. Psychotherapy addresses this by becoming aware of our unconscious (unaware) patterns. Freud coined the term "repetition compulsion" by which we can unknowingly repeat past experiences. In essence, we want to change but cling to what's familiar. Long-term psychotherapy is my preference as it provides the necessary time and safety for these dynamics to emerge and therefore create freedom if desired.

I'm so happy you're here, and I’m excited to help you take the next step in your therapy journey. As a therapist who truly understands the ups and downs of life, I’m passionate about guiding you through whatever challenges you’re facing. My goal is to create a warm and supportive space where we can work together to overcome anything that’s holding you back.
