Hi, I’m Sheena Gaddis, LCSW, and I’m so glad you’re here. I earned my Master of Social Work from Fayetteville State University and have over 15 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges. I believe therapy should feel like a safe, welcoming space where you can be heard without judgment. I use approaches such as CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help you build coping skills, gain clarity, and create meaningful change at your own pace.
I'm John, a licensed psychologist practicing in Utah and California. I started out in information technology because I loved computers and making sense of data, but over time I found I enjoyed working with people more than working with machines, so I went back to school and earned my doctorate in clinical psychology (PsyD). Since then I have worked in counseling centers, outpatient clinics, hospitals, and schools, and I have really enjoyed applying the science of psychology to help people understand themselves and navigate the challenges of everyday life. I see teens, young adults, adults, and older adults for concerns including depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, life transitions, relationships, men's mental health, and questions of religion and spirituality.
Hi, I am Erika! I got my Masters in Social Work at the University of Utah. I have been working in social work related fields for the last 11 years. I specialize in trauma work (EMDR Provider) and Ketamine assisted therapy.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) with over 16 years of healthcare experience, I believe healing starts with feeling safe, heard, and understood. My own life experiences, combined with my clinical training, have shaped the compassionate, whole-person approach I bring to every client. I provide evidence-based care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, mood disorders, and other mental health concerns while working collaboratively to help you reach your goals.
I believe that meaningful change happens in relationships—with ourselves and with others. Whether you're navigating conflict with your partner, healing after betrayal, strengthening family relationships, grieving a loss, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can provide a place to better understand yourself, reconnect with your strengths, and create lasting change.
For more than 14 years, I've worked with individuals, couples, families, and children to help them move beyond patterns that no longer serve them. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Registered Play Therapist, and educator with a PhD and master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, I bring extensive clinical training to my work. My background also includes a master's degree in Cognitive Psychology and Neuroscience, which informs my understanding of how our brains, emotions, and relationships shape the way we experience the world. I use this knowledge to tailor therapy to each client's unique needs.
Hello, I am Greg Cowan (John G. Cowan) , an LCSW licensed in the State of Utah since 2007. I have owned my private practice since 2014. I have experience treating many mental health problems, primarily: PTSD, anxiety, depression, stage of life issues, relationship issues, Bipolar Disorder, men’s issues, ADHD, sleep disorders, grief / bereavement, trauma, anger management.
I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience working with adults navigating some of life's hardest seasons — infertility, adoption, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and the kind of grief that doesn't have a clear name yet. I'm faith-integrated in my approach, which means I honor the role spirituality plays in your life without ever making it a requirement. My clients describe me as warm, easy to talk to, and refreshingly direct. I don't do one-size-fits-all therapy — every treatment plan starts with your story.
I am a seasoned therapist with over a decade of experience in child welfare, multisystemic therapy (MST), and crisis intervention for both children and adults. I offer person-centered and trauma-informed interventions that include strengths-focused and mindfulness-based practices. As a radical social and racial justice allied therapist, my approach is rooted in a decolonial mindset, ensuring therapy is free of spiritual bypassing and toxic positivity, focusing on genuine healing and empowerment.
Are you tired of what feels like the "same old" therapy?
My approach to create a space with my clients to have a more personally tailored approach utilizing a wellness approach!
Thriving instead of just surviving.
I am a strong believer in meeting those I serve where they are.
Whether you are experiencing loss, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, a life transition, stress or need a sounding board, I am here to be a support!
