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.

My goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable exploring what has brought you to therapy and where you want to go from here. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, and finding the right therapist matters.

With more than 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, and the everyday stress that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Whether you're navigating a difficult season, healing from past experiences, or simply wanting to understand yourself better, we'll work together to identify meaningful goals and build practical skills that support lasting change.

Rachel Sweet

Rachel Sweet

Therapist

Virtual • Utah


I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable enough to genuinely be yourself. I’m a down-to-earth and approachable therapist, and my goal is to create a space where you feel supported and understood without feeling judged. I also believe therapy doesn’t always have to feel heavy—there is absolutely room for humor and being human.

I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Rocky Mountain University of Health Professionals. I have extensive experience working in mental health, particularly with adolescents, young adults, and families. Much of my professional background has been in residential treatment, where I have supported individuals struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, behavioral concerns, relationship difficulties, and family conflict.

One thing my experience has taught me is that behavior usually makes a lot more sense once we understand what is happening underneath it. I enjoy helping clients understand themselves better, recognize patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and find healthier ways to cope, communicate, and move forward.

I especially enjoy working with people who may have had a difficult experience with therapy in the past—or who aren't completely sure they want to be in therapy in the first place. You don't have to come in knowing exactly what you want to work on. We can figure that out together.
