Life is difficult at times, and change can feel overwhelming. I look forward to walking with you on this journey.
I bring 20 years of experience as a social worker across a range of mental health settings, but individual therapy is where I feel most at home. I often work with people navigating life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, and that “stuck” feeling. I also use DBT-informed approaches to help build coping skills and emotional balance.
My therapeutic style is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I am highly trained, deeply dedicated to my clients, and committed to providing effective care that creates real, lasting change. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and practical, offering not only understanding but also tools that you can use in your everyday life.

Life is about maintaining balance in all aspects, through love. There is so much out there to learn and grow from, so why not have fun doing it? A little about me: I love going to CrossFit every morning. I am a huge nerd, constantly listening to audibles and/or podcasts such as Huberman Lab and non-fiction books. I enjoy being outdoors: snowboarding, motorcycle/dirt biking, hiking, any movement &traveling. My parents are from Peru, so I visit there often. Tambien hablo español! Therapy can help your understanding of where your emotions come from connecting the past to the present, and decreasing the intensity by making sense of it.

My name is Spencer Allan, MSN, APRN, PMHNP, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of experience working in mental health care. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing a wide range of mental health concerns across various levels of care, giving me a strong foundation in understanding the complexities of psychiatric illness and recovery.
I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults experiencing challenges such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, psychotic disorders, and other mental health concerns. I also have a strong interest in functional health and the relationship between mental health, sleep, hormones, physical health, nutrition, and overall wellness.
I believe mental health treatment should focus on the whole person, not just a diagnosis. My goal is to help clients better understand what is contributing to their symptoms while developing a treatment plan that supports both symptom improvement and long-term well-being.
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. As a counselor, I have worked in public schools, adult and youth residential facilities, online counseling, wilderness programs, private practice, and mental health facilities. My areas of expertise include sexual abuse, domestic violence, substance abuse, parenting, and leadership. I have presented at many local, state, and national professional conferences and have taught many masters’ level mental health courses for the past 20+ years. Currently, I am the Assistant Program Director and Associate Professor of Counseling at Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions. Prior to my work in counseling and academia, I served a tour of duty in Germany as an officer in the US Army and then back in America as a bank branch manager. I graduated from Brigham Young University with degrees in Corporate Communications (BA) and Educational Psychology (M.Ed.) and at the University of the Cumberlands (Ph.D.) in Counselor Education and Supervision.
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.
I believe we all deserve to be happy and enjoy this life. I enjoy working with clients to learn skills and overcome barriers to reach this goal

Frequently asked questions


Find the right counselor for your family
Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Salt Lake City
Finding family therapists in Salt Lake City starts with understanding what your family wants help addressing. Family therapy can support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not only one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, structural family therapy, parenting support, or adolescent concerns that match your needs.
Salt Lake City offers a range of local counseling options, with in-person offices across the city and virtual appointments that can make scheduling easier. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, certain family members, or one person at a time, depending on the goals and structure of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for their approach, session format, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. This can help you understand how they work with families before the first appointment.
Therapy in Salt Lake City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find family therapists who are accepting new patients and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details to confirm coverage. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
