I am an LCSW. I am a trauma and neurodivergent-informed therapist that specializes in EMDR and DBT. I am good at building relationships with clients and helping them feel safe. I use humor and direct communication to overcome barriers with clients. I use things like art, culture, media, etc. to reach clients where they are at. I am non-binary and work on LGBT issues with clients. I am also a person of color, so I work with cultural trauma.
Hello! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) based in Tennessee. I am also licensed in the states of UT and NE. I have been in practice for 15 years. I love working with clients who are genuinely seeking therapy for their own growth and awareness. I enjoy helping clients who want to take a deeper look at behaviors and relationships in their lives that could be modified and or improved. I started my career in community mental health working with individuals who were suffering from addiction, childhood trauma, family conflict, and faith crisis. I feel like I have learned the true impact addiction, poverty, trauma, and abuse can have on an individual and family system. This has helped me create space for clients to feel safe, heard, valued, and respected in our sessions. I look forward to meeting you!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Layton
Searching for therapists in Layton starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In a smaller city like Layton, local in-person availability may be more limited than in larger Utah markets. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Utah. When narrowing your search, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Layton can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated price before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences and have current availability, so you can review bios, compare options, and book directly when you’re ready.
