You've been going it alone for so long and surviving but you've reached a point where a listening ear and some new coping skills are necessary. Reaching out for therapy takes courage, and the rewards can be so worth it. My experience as a therapist can help you get unstuck and thriving again.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for helping individuals and couples improve their mental health by strengthening their relationships with others and with themselves.
I have been a therapist for 10+ years. I received my Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Syracuse University. I have specialized training for trauma, anxiety, and attachment, depression, family systems, addiction, and perinatal and postpartum. My range of experience includes residential treatment programs for troubled teens, intensive outpatient, and community mental health. I love working with all ages.
I have a deep compassion for people. I am uniquely positioned from the experiences I've had in my life to have the privilege of walking with others on their healing journeys. I believe we all have the capacity for healing, which is a very individualized process. I love what I do and am privileged to do it!
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family. I love animals and have two cats. I have a lot of interests including Yoga, dance, Tai Chi, traveling, art, and nature.

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. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before you book can help you understand a therapist’s communication style, experience, and what sessions may look like.
Therapy in Salt Lake City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket session costs. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, many of whom are accepting new patients, and who match your preferences for care, schedule, and format. You can enter your insurance details, see an estimated cost before booking, review therapist profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
