I am a graduate of the University of Southern California with a Masters in Clinical Social Work, and received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles. I am also a certified 200 HR yoga instructor and Reiki practitioner. I bring a deeply integrative approach to healing, blending somatic therapies, mindfulness, and energy work with evidence-based interventions. I am also currently completing my PhD in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies.
With a foundation in yoga, nervous system regulation, and spiritual practice, my work is rooted in guiding you to return to your own embodied truth through reinforcing resilience and post-traumatic growth. I primarily work with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and those navigating PTSD and other trauma related diagnoses.
Hi! I am a licensed clinical social worker who has been practicing for 8 years. I specialize in working with mountain athletes and folks who work and play outside. My areas of expertise include anxiety, disordered eating, grief, and trauma.
J.M. Evosevich, PhD, LMFT, CADC, BCBA, RN is a licensed MFT specializing in individuals and couples. He has more than 30 years of experience working in healthcare and mental health with a specialization in couples therapy. He has successfully created individualized care for people with mental health and substance abuse disorders.
My calling as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker allows me to partner with clients in their places of greatest need, with a focus on complex post-traumatic stress. I employ a combination of talk, somatic and non-verbal eye movement based therapies. We will do deep trauma work while still making room for safety, warmth, and even a little playfulness. Because healing doesn’t have to happen in cold, serious rooms. Sometimes it happens barefoot, holding a fidget, with a sloth nearby and someone beside you who truly sees 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.
Compassionate, Goal-Oriented Care for Trauma & Mental Health
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) specializing in trauma, PTSD, chronic pain, and treatment-resistant mental health conditions. With over 20 years of experience, I take a goal-oriented, intensive, and patient-directed approach to therapy, integrating EMDR, somatic therapy, and Trauma-Focused ACT (TFACT) to help clients reclaim their lives.
I have extensive experience working with veterans, law enforcement, and individuals navigating complex trauma, as well as those dealing with functional neurological disorders, chronic pain, and severe anxiety or depression. My practice offers structured treatment programs, including EMDR intensives, pain management programs, and immersive healing experiences tailored to your unique needs.
I believe in the deep connection between the mind and body and incorporate physical movement, self-defense principles, and mindfulness-based techniques into my work when beneficial. Whether you're seeking relief from trauma, chronic pain, or emotional distress, I provide a direct yet compassionate approach to help you heal and move forward.
I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward resilience and recovery.
I believe therapy should be a dynamic, collaborative process that yields real-world results. My practice is built on a foundation of academic excellence and specialized training, including a BA in Psychology from University of Southern California and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Utah.
My Therapeutic Toolkit: Evidence-Based & Proactive
I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach. I blend several powerful, evidence-based modalities to help you achieve your goals quickly and effectively:
- ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): A specialized approach for trauma and PTSD that uses eye movements to "reprogram" distressing memories and sensations, often providing relief in just a few sessions.
- CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): We will work together to identify and shift the thought patterns that keep you stuck in cycles of anxiety or depression.
- DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): I provide practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships—giving you a "manual" for navigating life's hardest moments.
Hello and Welcome! I began my LCSW career as a therapist at the University Neuropsychiatric Institute (now Huntsman Mental Health Institute, or HMHI) and several Employee Assistant Programs (EAP’s) before opening my own private practice.
With a strong foundation in diagnosing and treating acute mental illnesses, I now focus primarily on helping clients facing less severe but impactful mental health issues. My areas of specialization include depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, relationship challenges, anger management, and childhood-related problems and primarily work with adults and older adolescents.
Though it may not be immediately visible, I bring extensive experience working with diverse populations, including LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, neurodivergent (ND), and neurotypical (NT) individuals. I openly invite questions and conversations around these topics, emphasizing my inclusive and affirming approach.
Beyond my clinical work, I am passionate about the outdoors and enjoy Utah’s rich natural offerings, including hiking, camping, scuba diving, skiing, sailing, and climbing. A dedicated traveler, I’ve visited approximately 75 countries, with extended stays in the majority of them. My extroverted nature fuels a deep curiosity about people and their unique life experiences.
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.
Hi there. I'm Amanda. I received my undergraduate degrees from the University of Utah in '99 and a masters degree from the University of Denver in'02. I've been practicing in the mental health field for over 25 years. I've worked with many different populations in private practice, schools, medical settings, and addictions settings.
Currently, I have a private practice focusing on ages 15-adulthood. I also teach at the University of Utah graduate school of social work where I'm honored to connect with adult learners. I'm LGBTQI affirming and experienced in my practice.
In my free time you can find me skiing, surfing, paddleboarding, reading and baking.
