As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that understanding your mental health is key to stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so I am glad you are here. I’ve been practicing for several years, and know truly enjoy working with individuals seeking insight, change, and growth.

I am a down-to-earth, supportive, nonjudgmental, and open-minded Board Certified Psychiatric NP. I began my work in psychiatric care as a registered nurse treating patients in various hospital settings who were experiencing a mental health crisis. For a more rewarding 1-on-1 approach, I returned to grad school and earned a Masters, and chose to become certified as a Psychiatric NP. I am honored and fortunate to have the opportunity to manage medications for kids and adults with ADHD, depression, anxiety, PTSD, Bipolar, Panic, Sleep problems, and other ailments from a place of encouragement and respect and based on an ever growing library of peer reviewed scientific literature and medical treatment guidelines.

I approach therapy as a collaborator. My method is client-centered and humanistic. I aim to accompany my clients in achieving the goals brought into the therapeutic environment with openness, empathy, and compassion. Creating goals in small steps is vital for progress and change. Identifying insecure attachment and dysfunctional patterns will lead to lasting change. My clients can learn to recognize unhealthy cycles and gain a deeper understanding of their attachment styles.

Currently, I do not provide therapy for couples or minors.

If you're feeling disconnected from your partner, finding it hard to navigate cultural differences in your relationship, or wanting to build a strong foundation before marriage, I want you to know you don't have to figure it out alone. I understand how stressful and isolating these challenges can feel, and I'm here to help you work through them.

I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner doctorally trained at the University of Utah, with eight years of mental healthcare experience including a year-long fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry.

I primarily work with children and teens, but also love meeting with young adults, parents, and fellow healthcare workers.

Outside of work, I love spending time in the mountains with my husband, son and very hyper dog.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist I have been working with individuals, couples and families for over 20 years. I've observed that people have what it takes to find the peace and happiness they are looking for. I am confident that, together, we can find the solutions that will work for you.

I am passionate about people and I love being a therapist. I get excited about getting to know new clients, learning their story, unpacking it in order to gain insight into why things have become the way they are and then using this insight to then foster healing, growth, and change. Change occurs once new ways of being are identified and barriers are removed in order to try on new ways of being.

Hello, I’m Dr. Scott DeBerard, a licensed clinical psychologist (Ph.D.) in the State of Utah with over 30 years of experience. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, stress, trauma, health challenges, and major life transitions. My approach emphasizes authenticity, compassion, and respect for each person’s unique life circumstances.

I strive to be warm, approachable, easy to talk to, and an excellent listener. I am not here to judge you. I am a mother of three children who are all grown up and I’ve experienced more than my fair share of life challenges. I don’t recommend any treatments or practices that I myself have not used.
