I believe in showing up as a real person in the therapy room. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable being fully themselves in our sessions, whether they’re navigating anxiety, faith transitions, self-worth, or the messy in-betweens of being human. My own journey (from growing up in a high-control religious group to finding meaning and freedom in nature and music festivals) has shaped my understanding of how culture and systems impact our stories.

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.

Bella Bohn

Therapist

Virtual • Draper, UT


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over five years of experience in the mental health field. I began my career working directly with adolescent girls in a residential setting. This experience shaped my passion for creating safe and supportive spaces where people feel seen, understood, and valued. I later earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Kentucky and have worked across inpatient, residential, and outpatient settings with both adolescents and adults.

Throughout my career, I have supported clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, substance use, and other behavioral health challenges. My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and person-centered, drawing from evidence-based approaches such as CBT and DBT while also incorporating attachment theory, somatic-informed interventions, and other approaches tailored to each individual.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and I strive to create a space where you can be honest, feel safe enough to explore difficult experiences, and also feel empowered to make meaningful changes. My goal is to meet you where you are while helping you better understand yourself, build lasting tools for coping and connection, and move toward the life you want to create.
