Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Layton, UT

Hello—I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I received my Master’s degree from the University of Utah in 2009. I deeply believe in the value of seeking support—because being human means navigating both grief and gratitude, often at the same time.

There are seasons in life when we need additional support, and you don’t have to move through those alone. I strive in helping you reconnect with yourself, build self-trust, and make sense of what you’re carrying.

I specialize in women’s mental health, anxiety, betrayal trauma, divorce, grief, and loss.

Hi, I'm Shelley Sims, LMFT.

I believe healing happens when people feel truly seen, understood, and accepted. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment or pressure to have everything figured out.

I work with adults, teens, and couples who are navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, ADHD, OCD, burnout, life transitions, and low self-worth. Many of my clients have spent years putting everyone else first and are ready to reconnect with themselves, set healthier boundaries, and build lives that feel more peaceful and fulfilling.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from evidence-based therapies including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and somatic, nervous system-informed techniques. Together, we'll identify unhelpful patterns, process painful experiences, and develop practical skills that create lasting change.

Whether you're healing from childhood wounds, working through relationship struggles, managing overwhelming emotions, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to do it alone. I believe growth is possible at any stage of life, and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you rediscover your strengths and move toward the life you want.

Taking the first step can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to have it all figured out before reaching out. If you're ready to begin your healing journey, I'd love to help.

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.

Hello! I am Gano. I am a fully licensed clinical mental health counselor in Utah, though I am originally from Bosnia and Croatia. I have a Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling and specialization in Child and Family Therapy from Boston College, and a Bachelors degree in Psychology and Philosophy from Westminster University. I have been a therapist since 2019, and I have experience working with a wide variety of clients of different ages, backgrounds, and mental health issues. I have specialized training in EMDR trauma therapy and Attachment Based Family therapy.

I am direct, structured and supportive and have a strong committment to LGBTQIA+ affirming care. I specialize in helping individuals and families of all ages navigate anxiety, family dynamics, trauma, and transitions. For children, I create a safe, nurturing space where they can express and process emotions in healthy ways. With adults and adolescents, I focus on values and personal growth, working together to explore challenges, identify patterns, and develop practical strategies for change. Together, we’ll build resilience, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose, aligning your life with what truly matters.

I’m Gloria, a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, so I strive to create a warm, supportive space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

My experience includes working with individuals experiencing PTSD, anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, and the effects of trauma and major life changes. I especially enjoy helping clients better understand the patterns affecting their lives, develop healthier ways of coping, and build confidence in themselves and their decisions. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish.

With over a decade of experience, I offer tailored therapy for diverse challenges: Disruptive Behavior, Parental Stress, LGBTQIA Support, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Relationships, Grief, Life Transitions, BIPOC Concerns, and Personal Growth. I use a holistic approach integrating Trauma-Informed Care, CBT, and Behavior Therapy. Let's work towards healing and growth together!

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.

As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.
