My journey in mental health began in 2009 when I took a course titled, "Art, Medicine, and Disabilities" during my undergraduate studies at UC Berkeley. In 2012 I pursued my dreams of earning a Master’s of Mental Health in Art Psychotherapy from the University of Queensland, School of Medicine in Australia. Now, I am a dual-licensed clinician in California and Utah (CMHC, LPCC) serving individual adults and youth. I am a well versed therapist with over a decade of experience working with diverse populations, individual adults, teens, and seniors. I specialize in a psychodynamic approach that is tailored to each unique individual, fostering a safe and supportive environment for self-exploration and growth.

Hi there—I’m so glad you’re here. Life has thrown me my share of curveballs: childhood trauma, family struggles with addiction, deep losses, and the constant upheaval of moves and changing homes. Those experiences taught me what it feels like to question your worth—and how powerful it is to reclaim it.

Since 2022, I’ve been walking alongside people who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply trying to make sense of being human in a complicated world. As an EMDR-certified and EFT-trained therapist, I love helping clients uncover the roots of their pain and build the skills to heal and thrive. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and always centered on you—your story, your goals, your pace.

I work with teens and adults specializing in complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other trauma related mental health issues. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just curious about what therapy might offer, I’m here to help you reconnect with your strengths and move toward the life you want—with compassion, curiosity, and practical tools for lasting change.

I bring 20 years of experience as a social worker across a range of mental health settings, but individual therapy is where I feel most at home. I often work with people navigating life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, and that “stuck” feeling. I also use DBT-informed approaches to help build coping skills and emotional balance.

Sasha Lloyd

Therapist

Virtual • Utah


I specialize in working with individuals navigating Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), personality disorders, trauma, and the unique stressors faced by first responders. I also enjoy supporting clients through major life transitions, including shifts in identity, relationships, and belief systems.

I am thoughtful about diagnosis and do not rush to label or pathologize clients. Instead, I focus on understanding the full picture of what you’re experiencing and creating a treatment plan that feels relevant, practical, and aligned with your goals.

I strive to provide an open-minded, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic space. I welcome conversations around diverse relationship structures, including ethical non-monogamy (ENM), as well as faith transitions, spiritual exploration, and deconstruction.

Whether you are managing anxiety, healing from trauma, navigating motherhood or identity changes, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to better understand yourself and create meaningful change.

I believe that meaningful change happens in relationships—with ourselves and with others. Whether you're navigating conflict with your partner, healing after betrayal, strengthening family relationships, grieving a loss, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can provide a place to better understand yourself, reconnect with your strengths, and create lasting change.

For more than 14 years, I've worked with individuals, couples, families, and children to help them move beyond patterns that no longer serve them. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Registered Play Therapist, and educator with a PhD and master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, I bring extensive clinical training to my work. My background also includes a master's degree in Cognitive Psychology and Neuroscience, which informs my understanding of how our brains, emotions, and relationships shape the way we experience the world. I use this knowledge to tailor therapy to each client's unique needs.
