I am direct, structured and supportive and have a strong committment to LGBTQIA+ affirming care. I specialize in helping individuals and families of all ages navigate anxiety, family dynamics, trauma, and transitions. For children, I create a safe, nurturing space where they can express and process emotions in healthy ways. With adults and adolescents, I focus on values and personal growth, working together to explore challenges, identify patterns, and develop practical strategies for change. Together, we’ll build resilience, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose, aligning your life with what truly matters.
I believe in showing up as a real person in the therapy room. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable being fully themselves in our sessions, whether they’re navigating anxiety, faith transitions, self-worth, or the messy in-betweens of being human. My own journey (from growing up in a high-control religious group to finding meaning and freedom in nature and music festivals) has shaped my understanding of how culture and systems impact our stories.
I provide a non Judgmental, positive environment for all populations I serve. I have a no nonsense, direct approach to therapy.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Utah who has been practicing since 2015. I tend to take a direct approach but also show love and compassion to all of the clients I see no matter their age, race, gender, past, or present that prevents them from moving into their future. Within the practice I work in, Renova Wellness & Consulting, we specialize in trauma treatment and using various techniques to help clients live a live they deserve.
Hi, I'm Shelley Sims, LMFT.
I believe healing happens when people feel truly seen, understood, and accepted. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment or pressure to have everything figured out.
I work with adults, teens, and couples who are navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, ADHD, OCD, burnout, life transitions, and low self-worth. Many of my clients have spent years putting everyone else first and are ready to reconnect with themselves, set healthier boundaries, and build lives that feel more peaceful and fulfilling.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from evidence-based therapies including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and somatic, nervous system-informed techniques. Together, we'll identify unhelpful patterns, process painful experiences, and develop practical skills that create lasting change.
Whether you're healing from childhood wounds, working through relationship struggles, managing overwhelming emotions, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to do it alone. I believe growth is possible at any stage of life, and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you rediscover your strengths and move toward the life you want.
Taking the first step can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to have it all figured out before reaching out. If you're ready to begin your healing journey, I'd love to help.
Hello—I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I received my Master’s degree from the University of Utah in 2009. I deeply believe in the value of seeking support—because being human means navigating both grief and gratitude, often at the same time.
There are seasons in life when we need additional support, and you don’t have to move through those alone. I strive in helping you reconnect with yourself, build self-trust, and make sense of what you’re carrying.
I specialize in women’s mental health, anxiety, betrayal trauma, divorce, grief, and loss.
Hello and nice to meet you. I am a mental health therapist who helps individuals, couples, and families strengthen their connection to themselves and to others. My work centers on improving communication, deepening understanding, and creating meaningful change through authentic relationships.
With years of experience in trauma recovery, family systems, and communication dynamics, I support clients in uncovering patterns that affect how they relate and respond in their relationships. My background includes working with developmental/family of origin trauma, toxic and high conflict relationships, survivors of narcissistic abuse, relational trauma, and complex grief and loss. These experiences have shaped my understanding that healing and connection go hand in hand.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Salt Lake City
Finding postpartum therapists in Salt Lake City starts with looking for care that matches your specific needs after pregnancy or birth. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also look for a prenatal depression therapist or perinatal mental health counseling during pregnancy. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with perinatal care, maternal mental health, or the PMH-C credential, which can signal specialized training in this area.
In Salt Lake City, your search may include therapists with offices near downtown, Sugar House, the Avenues, or other nearby neighborhoods, along with virtual options across Utah. For new parents, virtual care can make appointments easier to fit around infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. It can also expand access if nearby in-person options have limited availability. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for their postpartum specialties, appointment times, session format, and communication style. A free phone consultation can also help you decide whether the therapist feels like the right fit.
Therapy in Salt Lake City can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway lets you search for postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, view virtual and in-person availability, enter your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
