Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Sandy, UT

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state of Utah. I have worked in many different capacities that have always encompassed a helping component. I have experience in law enforcement, substance abuse, and marriage and couples counseling. I am direct in a caring and loving way, with a strong belief in doing no harm. I use Cognitive Behavioral and Solution Focused therapy, along with Motivational interviewing as therapeutic modalities. Why, you might ask? because they are as positive as I am!

Hi, I’m Macy Peterson, a licensed therapist with a strong passion for helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate grief, and build a meaningful life beyond pain. I specialize in trauma and PTSD and provide a safe, supportive space for clients to work through complex emotional experiences at their own pace.

I am certified in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, Neurofeedback, Biofeedback, and Grief and Bereavement Counseling. I use these evidence-based modalities to support the mind-body connection and help clients regulate their nervous systems, release stored trauma, and develop lasting resilience.

My academic background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Human Service Management, a Master’s in School Counseling, and a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Therapy. These degrees have given me a well-rounded foundation for working with clients across diverse backgrounds and life stages.

I believe that healing is not linear, and therapy should be tailored to your individual needs and values. Whether you're feeling stuck in survival mode, coping with unresolved loss, or seeking deeper connection and clarity, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, skill, and purpose.

I have been providing treatment for over 25 years. I'm very skilled and have focused on addiction treatment, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health illnesses. I am very curious about your situation and would love to assist you.

I have a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have been working in the field for the past 15 years. I have worked in residential substance abuse, treatment, and in individual practice settings.

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 am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over five years of experience in the mental health field. I began my career working directly with adolescent girls in a residential setting. This experience shaped my passion for creating safe and supportive spaces where people feel seen, understood, and valued. I later earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Kentucky and have worked across inpatient, residential, and outpatient settings with both adolescents and adults.

Throughout my career, I have supported clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, substance use, and other behavioral health challenges. My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and person-centered, drawing from evidence-based approaches such as CBT and DBT while also incorporating attachment theory, somatic-informed interventions, and other approaches tailored to each individual.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and I strive to create a space where you can be honest, feel safe enough to explore difficult experiences, and also feel empowered to make meaningful changes. My goal is to meet you where you are while helping you better understand yourself, build lasting tools for coping and connection, and move toward the life you want to create.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) providing compassionate, integrative psychiatric care in California, Utah, and Washington via telehealth, and in-person in Rocklin, California.

I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, bipolar disorder, trauma, burnout, stress, sleep problems, and perinatal and postpartum mental health. If something feels off and you're not sure where to start, you're in the right place.

I provide evaluation and medication management using a trauma-informed approach that considers your sleep, stress, lifestyle, and history. I collaborate with therapists and other providers to support coordinated, patient-centered treatment.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience. I believe in a supportive, welcoming approach, that can be gently direct when needed. I like working with those in relationship distress, especially from an angle of men's empowerment. I am comfortable in working with trauma and sexual behaviors. I am certified to do EMDR and enjoy doing this practice with clients.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over 20 years of experience helping individuals restore balance, build resilience, and reconnect with purpose. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with a compassionate, person-centered style that supports clients in navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

As a bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural therapist, I provide a space where every client feels seen, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.

Kokoro—a Japanese word meaning “mind, heart, and spirit”—reflects my belief that healing begins when the whole self is engaged with authenticity and intention.

I have over 25 years experience working with young men and their families. I love digging in and helping clients find joy in life and increase their resilience.
