Therapist

Virtual • Riverton, UT


As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families—regardless of sexual orientation—who are seeking deeper connection, healing, and clarity. Many people feel stuck in patterns of conflict, disconnection, or self-doubt and want to build healthier relationships, understand themselves better, and feel empowered in their journey. Together, we create a safe, affirming space to explore pain and possibility. I believe change is possible, and every person has the strength within them to grow, connect, and thrive.

It can take work and lots of practice to find the key to balance in your life. I personally find my balance through ongoing self-care, self-reflection, and movement.

I have been in the counseling field for over a decade starting first in Forensic Counseling as an intern and spending 10 years in community mental health. I am now an owner of a private practice where I provide individual therapy ages 18+. My practice is in Wisconsin and offer telehealth to residents in Colorado, Florida, and Utah.

Therapist

Virtual • Provo, UT


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.

Therapist

Virtual • Utah


Hi there—I’m so glad you’re here. Life has thrown me my share of curveballs: childhood trauma, family struggles with addiction, deep losses, and the constant upheaval of moves and changing homes. Those experiences taught me what it feels like to question your worth—and how powerful it is to reclaim it.

Since 2022, I’ve been walking alongside people who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply trying to make sense of being human in a complicated world. As an EMDR-certified and EFT-trained therapist, I love helping clients uncover the roots of their pain and build the skills to heal and thrive. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and always centered on you—your story, your goals, your pace.

I work with teens and adults specializing in complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other trauma related mental health issues. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just curious about what therapy might offer, I’m here to help you reconnect with your strengths and move toward the life you want—with compassion, curiosity, and practical tools for lasting change.

Sasha Lloyd

Therapist

Virtual • Utah


I specialize in working with individuals navigating Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), personality disorders, trauma, and the unique stressors faced by first responders. I also enjoy supporting clients through major life transitions, including shifts in identity, relationships, and belief systems.

I am thoughtful about diagnosis and do not rush to label or pathologize clients. Instead, I focus on understanding the full picture of what you’re experiencing and creating a treatment plan that feels relevant, practical, and aligned with your goals.

I strive to provide an open-minded, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic space. I welcome conversations around diverse relationship structures, including ethical non-monogamy (ENM), as well as faith transitions, spiritual exploration, and deconstruction.

Whether you are managing anxiety, healing from trauma, navigating motherhood or identity changes, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to better understand yourself and create meaningful change.
