I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing since 2011. I have worked with many populations and age ranges, I began my own private practice in 2016, where my focus switched primarily from addiction to trauma. I realized that trauma brings on many additional mental health challenges that may be resolved through trauma treatment.
I like to explore modalities with clients that both support and go beyond talk therapy in order to get to the deepest roots of the issues, which tend to lie at the subconscious level.

Many high-performing adults are used to being the one others depend on. From the outside, life may look successful and put together, but internally you may feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or constantly questioning yourself despite your accomplishments.
I specialize in working with professionals, leaders, and high-achieving adults who are balancing demanding careers, relationships, parenting, and personal expectations while struggling with anxiety, burnout, imposter syndrome, trauma, ADHD, perfectionism, or stress that never fully seems to shut off. Many of my clients are successful professionally but find themselves struggling to feel fully present at home, connected in relationships, or able to truly slow their mind down.
I also work with adults navigating depression, major life transitions, work stress, relationship challenges, and the pressure of trying to manage everything while continuing to perform at a high level. Often, the same strengths that help people succeed professionally can also contribute to chronic stress, emotional exhaustion, people-pleasing, overthinking, difficulty relaxing, or feeling like they always need to stay in control.
Therapy with me is not about judgment or simply “talking about feelings.” It is a practical, supportive, and collaborative process focused on helping you better understand yourself, improve emotional awareness, manage stress more effectively, strengthen relationships, and feel more grounded and confident in both your personal and professional life.
Hi Everyone! I’m Tiffany. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.
In my practice, I support people who want to find more acceptance, wholeness, and aliveness in every area of their life. I often work with people who feel overwhelmed with self-criticism, doubt, sadness, anxiety, overwhelm, grief, and fear.
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.
Hi, I’m Sarah Stewart, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and founder of Pelorus Point — a practice dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s transitions with clarity and confidence. I am licensed in Florida, Idaho, Utah, and North Dakota, and bring over 11 years of clinical experience working with adolescents, adults, and couples.
My background includes a Master’s in Counseling Psychology and ongoing doctoral studies in Psychology, where my research focuses on language, identity, and inclusive mental health practices. My approach to therapy is eclectic and collaborative, blending elements of psychodynamic, narrative, and mindfulness-based work to create a space that fits you rather than forcing you into a specific model.
I specialize in working with clients navigating ADHD, dissociative disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, gender identity exploration, religious trauma, and relationship issues. My style is direct, grounded, and compassionate — I’m not afraid to challenge unhelpful patterns, but I always do so with respect and curiosity.
At Pelorus Point, my mission is simple: to help you find your true north — to better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and move toward a life that feels authentic and meaningful.
Wanting to get to the "why" of your and others behaviors and thinking can be a lifetime of healing. Have you ever wondered about why male and females are so different? I study that and have 7 brothers. I graduated from the U of U in social work. I know that my own journey in life and doing my own work can really help others do the same. One of my favorite work experiences was in drug and alcohol treatment. Your background does not define who you are. Having a safe place to be heard, understood and process is my intention. Feel free to cry and yell. I like to give resources that could be used now or they maybe helpful for the future. Let's find the joy together.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Salt Lake City, UT
Searching for therapists in Salt Lake City starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Salt Lake therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties and approach match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In Salt Lake City, your search may include therapists near Downtown, Sugar House, Holladay, or other nearby neighborhoods, along with Utah therapists who offer virtual appointments. Some people prefer an office that fits their commute or daily routine, while others choose virtual therapy for more scheduling options.

Reading bios before you book can help you understand a therapist’s communication style, experience, and what sessions may look like.
