Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Saint George, UT

I work with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns they cannot break. My approach is supportive but direct, helping you understand what is happening beneath the surface while also focusing on real, practical change. Therapy with me is not passive. We will have honest conversations, and I will both support and challenge you as we work toward meaningful progress.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Utah State University. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I have worked in the child welfare system for 10 years, advocating for families and individuals by helping them improve their lives and reach their highest potential.

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.

Welcome. I believe every person has a unique story, strengths, and capacity for growth. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and compassionate space where children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families can feel understood and empowered. I specialize in working with individuals and families navigating ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, neurodevelopmental differences, emotional regulation challenges, relationship concerns, parenting struggles, and life transitions. I take a strengths-based and collaborative approach, helping clients better understand themselves and build meaningful connections.

I come to therapy with a background in education and theater, which has deeply shaped how I connect with people and understand the human experience. My work is rooted in helping individuals better define who they are, where they want to be, and what may be standing in the way of getting there.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on curiosity, honesty, and growth. Together, we’ll identify obstacles, explore patterns, and engage with challenges in a meaningful way until we find solutions that truly work for you. My goal is to provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

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.
