LGBT therapists in Sandy, UT

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.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of professional social work and mental health experience. I strive to develop a caring and genuine relationship with each of my clients and to tailor treatment to your specific needs. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion and work with my clients to cultivate an atmosphere of openness and safety.

I strive to help individuals who have been plagued by past or current trauma. I am here to empower within and help my clients uncover who they truly are. My goal is to connect with your potential, find wellness, and create meaning. Finding a therapist who empathizes yet pushes you is never easy. My gentle approach will aid clients in understanding their maladaptive thought patterns and challenging the narrative that has kept them stuck for so long.

Hi Y'all! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I have been practicing for over 21 years. I am specially trained in co-occurring disorders of substance and mental health diagnoses. I love all people and want to help as many people as possible, to heal and move forward towards a healthier happier life. I hope to work with you soon!

I’m David Head, LPC—an existential psychotherapist with more than a decade helping people work through anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationship and interpersonal struggles, motivation blocks, compulsivity, and the deeper exhaustion that comes from feeling disconnected from your own life.

I hold a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Capella University and am a doctoral candidate in Counselor Education at Sam Houston State University, where my research focuses on identity, emotional dissonance, and the inner experience of helping professionals. My path has taken me through community mental health, residential treatment with children and families, school-based programs, and extensive telehealth work. I’ve seen how personal pain often intersects with bigger systems—work, family, culture—and I bring that grounded perspective without ever losing sight of you as the author of your story.

What matters most to me: You already have the capacity to choose, to take responsibility for your thoughts/feelings/behaviors, and to build a life that feels more aligned. My job isn’t to fix you. It’s to walk alongside you with curiosity, straight talk, and respect for your autonomy so you can develop the self-awareness, confidence, and tools to navigate whatever comes next—on your terms
