Family therapy and counseling in Draper, UT

I have almost twenty years experience working with children, teens, and adults experiencing mental health struggles. I feel confident working with clients and families in crisis. I have extensive experience in DBT therapy, and I believe that everyone can learn skills that will help them build a life worth living.

Life is full of challenges both big and small. My goal in therapy is to create a safe space for individuals and families to feel empowered to take on whatever life brings them, whether it seems too overwhelming to handle or too minor to matter. Anything that matters to you is worth talking about.

I use a variety of therapeutic models to help in my work, with connection being at the core. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, trauma, faith crisis/transition, couple/family conflict, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I enjoy working with teens and young adults, but am open to seeing clients of all ages and backgrounds.

Hello, I am Shaon Primus LMFT, I am originally from NYC. I work with families, couples, teens, etc, with mental health and substance use.

I believe therapy should be a dynamic, collaborative process that yields real-world results. My practice is built on a foundation of academic excellence and specialized training, including a BA in Psychology from University of Southern California and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Utah.

My Therapeutic Toolkit: Evidence-Based & Proactive

I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach. I blend several powerful, evidence-based modalities to help you achieve your goals quickly and effectively:

• ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): A specialized approach for trauma and PTSD that uses eye movements to "reprogram" distressing memories and sensations, often providing relief in just a few sessions.
• CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): We will work together to identify and shift the thought patterns that keep you stuck in cycles of anxiety or depression.
• DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): I provide practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships—giving you a "manual" for navigating life's hardest moments.

I want to make sure we address the needs you want help resolving. I will never force you to do something and will work with you and your goals. Our work is done based on research-proven methods to alleviate your mental health needs.

I am a PhD level Clinical Social Worker and have been providing counseling to individuals, couples, and families for over 30 years. I see therapy as a shared journey and strive to create a warm, collaborative atmosphere. Some areas of specialization include mood and anxiety disorders, relationship issues, faith crises, and abuse/trauma.

I am at my best when I am a guide for others. I start by listening and developing understanding of who you are, what you value, and where you struggle. I will help you to find your way back to yourself and develop the trust you need in yourself to live your best life. I use an approach that is very collaborative offering tools and resources, but assisting you to choose your own direction.

We all struggle at times, especially in the way we live these days. I can help you understand how and why you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected and develop strategies to move through this to a happier, more grounded, and more confident version of yourself.

Hi, I'm Lindsay. You have gotten good at holding it together, and almost no one around you knows what that costs. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples, and I also see children and older adults. Much of my work centers on anxiety, depression, and trauma, along with autism, eating disorders, and the aftermath of narcissistic abuse. I adjust my approach to meet the specific needs of each client. Clients often tell me they feel seen and safe with me.
