Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Salt Lake City, UT

I’m Chris.

I enjoy helping others with the challenges of daily living. I am interested in what motivates people and helping them modify behavior patterns. People aren't broken, they are doing perfectly that which they would like to do differently. I enjoy helping people grow and change, moving to the next level they desire. I have degrees in psychology and mental health counseling. I have been helping people find relieve from fear, pain, and discomfort for more than 20 years.

Are you carrying trauma, anxiety, depression, or a difficult transition and wondering how to feel like yourself again? I specialize in trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I work with adults in Utah, including skeptical clients. My style is direct, compassionate, and focused on helping you feel understood and move forward.

I am on your side, and I pay attention to whether our work is helping. I offer clear feedback without judgment and stay present with difficult feelings. You will never be too much for me. We can make room for heaviness, laughter, and a full life outside therapy.

Every person experiences seasons of life that can feel overwhelming. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use, grief, or major life transitions, my goal is to provide a safe, collaborative, and evidence-based therapeutic experience where meaningful, lasting change can occur.

For nearly two decades, I have had the privilege of serving individuals, couples, and families throughout Nevada as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. In addition to direct clinical practice, I have served as a Clinical Director, executive leader, clinical supervisor, consultant, educator, and program developer, helping develop innovative behavioral healthcare programs and clinical services across Nevada. These diverse experiences have allowed me to work with individuals from virtually every walk of life while treating a broad range of complex behavioral health concerns.

My approach is individualized, practical, and grounded in research-supported treatment. I integrate evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, and person-centered therapy to develop treatment plans tailored to each client's unique strengths, needs, and goals.

I believe people are far more than the challenges that bring them to therapy. My commitment is to provide compassionate, clinically excellent care while helping clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, overcome obstacles, and create healthier, more meaningful lives.

Alex has worked for 14 years as a therapist (LCSW) and four years as a therapist-supervisor. He graduated from BYU with his master's in social work in 2013. He uses therapeutic modalities such as ACT, CBT, IFS, MI, EMDR, EFT, CPP, Jungian, Child-centered, Adlerian, expressive arts, and narrative. He has worked with most behavioral health needs and age. He does dyadic work (couples or parent-child therapy).

I specialize in working with adults who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, grief, trauma, panic disorders, relationship challenges, and the particular weight that comes with being a woman managing too much at once. I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah, and I offer all sessions via telehealth — so wherever you are in the state, you can access consistent, quality care without rearranging your whole schedule. I bring a wide range of evidence-based tools to every session, including CBT, DBT, trauma-focused CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Narrative Therapy, SFBT, REBT, Gestalt, and Motivational Interviewing. That breadth matters because no two people struggle the same way — my job is to find the right fit for you, not apply a one-size approach.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s degree in Social Work and over five years of experience supporting adults ages 18 to 100. I specialize in working with individuals navigating chronic illness, chronic pain, addiction, complex grief, end-of-life concerns, and trauma.

I believe in meeting clients where they are, honoring their unique experiences, needs, and goals. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and non-judgmental, creating a caring and encouraging therapeutic environment where clients feel safe to explore challenges and develop meaningful coping skills. Through secure telehealth sessions, I work alongside clients to help them build resilience, find balance, and move toward the goals that matter most to them.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist I have been working with individuals, couples and families for over 20 years. I've observed that people have what it takes to find the peace and happiness they are looking for. I am confident that, together, we can find the solutions that will work for you.

Hi, I’m Eliza Ale-Finks, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker with more than 10 years of experience in mental health and a Master of Social Work degree. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, and major life transitions. My experience includes supporting military personnel, first responders, and individuals navigating high levels of stress and significant change. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported.

Life can be a fulfilling and challenging journey. It is part of the human experience to need support at different times depending on our life stage or situation. Seeking support can be intimidating. I am committed to working collaboratively with clients to foster learning and growth, enabling you to live your best life.

Originally from Ohio, I moved to Utah in 2003 to provide therapeutic outdoor experiences to youth and families. I have spent much of my career working with adolescents and young adults after receiving my Master of Social Work from the University of Utah in 2008. As a LCSW, I think its valuable to utilize resources specific to an individual instead of resources specific to a therapist. With that, I primarily lean on the principles of DBT, ACT, CBT, MI, Seven Challenges, Narrative therapy and EMDR/Trauma informed approaches. I also have experience with substance use and problematic media and technology use. As a psychedelic-assisted therapist, I believe in set and setting as a foundation for growth.

I spend much of my free time outdoors and sleep better under the stars. I love the mountain and desert surroundings that Utah provides and can often be found boating, skiing, hiking, backpacking and traveling the western U.S. I am also a land steward in Cache Valley, raising a menagerie of animals and vegetables. I also enjoy cooking and listening to live music.
