Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Draper, UT

I'm a curious and understanding therapist who finds immense joy in my work. With a deep passion for building meaningful connections, I thrive on supporting my clients as they navigate their journey to self-acceptance and purpose in life.

I’m a Clinical Mental Health Counselor who works with adults navigating trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and big life transitions. Many of the people I work with feel stuck, disconnected from themselves, or exhausted from carrying more than they ever should have had to. I bring a grounded, real-world approach to therapy that values honesty, self-trust, and meaningful change. My goal is to help you feel more at home in yourself—not just “functional,” but genuinely alive.

I bring a mix of deep listening, mindfulness, and just enough humor to help you breathe a little easier while we face the hard stuff together. I believe deeply in the possibility of change — the real kind of change that takes courage, patience, and practice. And I know that change is hard, which is why you’ll never have to navigate it alone in our work.

Clients often describe me as warm, collaborative, and gently direct. I’m committed to making therapy a space where you feel supported, challenged in helpful ways, and respected for the experiences that shaped you. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, relationship patterns, identity concerns, or major life transitions, I’ll walk alongside you with curiosity, compassion, humor, and practical guidance.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Utah who has been practicing since 2015. I tend to take a direct approach but also show love and compassion to all of the clients I see no matter their age, race, gender, past, or present that prevents them from moving into their future. Within the practice I work in, Renova Wellness & Consulting, we specialize in trauma treatment and using various techniques to help clients live a live they deserve.

I work with individuals who are ambitious and capable but often feel stretched thin trying to keep up with life, goals, and expectations. Many of my clients are professionals or working adults navigating stress, burnout, perfectionism, or self-doubt. I also enjoy working with teenage girls (13+). Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back, set realistic boundaries for your time and energy, manage stress, and find more peace in the present while still working toward meaningful goals for your future.

I’m EMDR-trained and IFS-informed. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Boise State University in 2021.

I'm a Clinical Mental Health Counselor and have been working professionally as a therapist since 2023. However, I began working in the mental health field with children in foster care in 2016. My time with those kids made me realize that my passion for helping people was in therapy, not in medicine. During my program, I interned in the Alaska Child Trauma Center with kids as young as 2.5 years old. After getting my Master's degree, I began working in inpatient hospitals with teenagers. These experiences are what led to my interest in helping people of all ages work through trauma, suicidal ideation, and behavioral issues. As well as helping parents find the best way to manage their children's behaviors and find the best way to improve their relationship.

I have been in residential substance abuse most of my career and I have a SUDC license (Substance Use Disorder Counselor). I moved over to general outpatient in 2019 and have been working with a wide array of clients since then. Since most of my career and training has been with single adults, I do not see children and I do not work with couples and families.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Utah State University. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I have worked in the child welfare system for 10 years, advocating for families and individuals by helping them improve their lives and reach their highest potential.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with adults and provides integrated mental health care that combines psychotherapy and medication management. My work is solution-oriented, empowering, and open-minded, with a focus on helping clients move beyond symptom management and toward meaningful, lasting change.

My style is warm, grounded, and direct. I value collaboration and curiosity, and I approach care as a partnership rather than something that is done to you. I aim to support clients while also encouraging them to take an active role in understanding their patterns, building resilience, and reclaiming their mental and emotional health.

As a first-generation Asian immigrant to the U.S. and an ex-Mormon, I understand the difficulty of blending cultures, values, and faith transitions. It is important to me to help individuals feel heard without judgment, shame, or guilt and give them a sense of belonging. My goal as a therapist is to help you gain new perspectives and confidence to take on any challenges in your life. I want to help you expand your emotional tolerance, walk with you through your grief and fears, and assist you in life transitions.
