Sasha Lloyd

Therapist

Virtual • Utah


I specialize in working with individuals navigating Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), personality disorders, trauma, and the unique stressors faced by first responders. I also enjoy supporting clients through major life transitions, including shifts in identity, relationships, and belief systems.

I am thoughtful about diagnosis and do not rush to label or pathologize clients. Instead, I focus on understanding the full picture of what you’re experiencing and creating a treatment plan that feels relevant, practical, and aligned with your goals.

I strive to provide an open-minded, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic space. I welcome conversations around diverse relationship structures, including ethical non-monogamy (ENM), as well as faith transitions, spiritual exploration, and deconstruction.

Whether you are managing anxiety, healing from trauma, navigating motherhood or identity changes, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to better understand yourself and create meaningful change.

Hi, I’m Haley Beeson, LCSW, licensed in Utah and co-founder of EternalBloom Counseling in Austin. My background includes working with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, disordered eating, identity concerns, trauma, and relationship challenges. I believe the relationships we have with ourselves and others shape how we experience the world. My work centers on helping people understand those patterns and find more peace and connection within them. I bring warmth, humor, and a trauma-informed, relational lens to each session. I welcome clients of all gender identities, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds.

Danielle Musick

Danielle Musick

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Millcreek, UT


I’m a trauma‐informed therapist who believes healing doesn’t require perfection—just honesty, compassion, and a willingness to take the next small step. Most of the people I work with are balancing careers, relationships, parenting, and the invisible emotional load that comes with everyday life. They’re strong, capable, and exhausted from carrying more than anyone realizes.

Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m real, relatable, and not the kind of therapist who just nods silently. I show up fully. I help you connect the dots. And I hold space for the parts of you that have been working so hard for so long.

If you’re looking for a therapist who understands the realities of everyday life and offers nonjudgemental compassionate support, I’d be honored to work with you.

Shelly Coburn

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Salt Lake City, UT


Hello and Welcome! I began my LCSW career as a therapist at the University Neuropsychiatric Institute (now Huntsman Mental Health Institute, or HMHI) and several Employee Assistant Programs (EAP’s) before opening my own private practice.

With a strong foundation in diagnosing and treating acute mental illnesses, I now focus primarily on helping clients facing less severe but impactful mental health issues. My areas of specialization include depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, relationship challenges, anger management, and childhood-related problems and primarily work with adults and older adolescents.

Though it may not be immediately visible, I bring extensive experience working with diverse populations, including LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, neurodivergent (ND), and neurotypical (NT) individuals. I openly invite questions and conversations around these topics, emphasizing my inclusive and affirming approach.

Beyond my clinical work, I am passionate about the outdoors and enjoy Utah’s rich natural offerings, including hiking, camping, scuba diving, skiing, sailing, and climbing. A dedicated traveler, I’ve visited approximately 75 countries, with extended stays in the majority of them. My extroverted nature fuels a deep curiosity about people and their unique life experiences.

“The green reed which bends in the wind is stronger than the mighty oak which breaks in a storm.”― Confucius. Have you felt that anxiety, depression, or trauma are stopping you from living the life you want and deserve? I utilize evidence-based practices with clients like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches to develop more adaptive responses and cultivate lasting coping to help clients bend with the winds of life. I'm now accepting clients for both in-person and telehealth therapy, and accept many insurances.

Therapist

Virtual • Riverton, UT


As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families—regardless of sexual orientation—who are seeking deeper connection, healing, and clarity. Many people feel stuck in patterns of conflict, disconnection, or self-doubt and want to build healthier relationships, understand themselves better, and feel empowered in their journey. Together, we create a safe, affirming space to explore pain and possibility. I believe change is possible, and every person has the strength within them to grow, connect, and thrive.

Kristen Smith

Therapist

Virtual • Utah


Therapy isn’t supposed to feel like performance. It’s supposed to feel like relief.

I’m Kristen — a licensed clinical social worker who’s spent over 20 years supporting people through transitions, overwhelm, and deep life work. I live in South Portland, Maine with my family, and I understand firsthand the emotional labor, coordination, and internal pressure that come with being a capable, high-achieving woman and mother.

As someone who is neurodivergent myself, I intimately understand the cost of masking — and what it takes to stop performing and start feeling and living.
