I specialize in helping high-capacity women — especially oldest daughters and recovering perfectionists — feel safe in their own minds again. I know what it’s like to carry invisible emotional weight while keeping a smile on your face. I’ve lived it, I’ve trained in it, and I’d love to help you unlearn the pressure and rebuild with grace.
I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience across a wide range of therapeutic settings, including family, adolescent, individual, group, adult, outpatient, residential, and day programs. I help clients enhance their quality of life by using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
It can take work and lots of practice to find the key to balance in your life. I personally find my balance through ongoing self-care, self-reflection, and movement.
I have been in the counseling field for over a decade starting first in Forensic Counseling as an intern and spending 10 years in community mental health. I am now an owner of a private practice where I provide individual therapy ages 18+. My practice is in Wisconsin and offer telehealth to residents in Colorado, Florida, and Utah.
I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience working with adults navigating some of life's hardest seasons — infertility, adoption, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and the kind of grief that doesn't have a clear name yet. I'm faith-integrated in my approach, which means I honor the role spirituality plays in your life without ever making it a requirement. My clients describe me as warm, easy to talk to, and refreshingly direct. I don't do one-size-fits-all therapy — every treatment plan starts with your story.
My passion lies in providing a safe and supportive space for individuals who are navigating difficult experiences. I approach this with empathetic listening and a fresh perspective, offering guidance and support through the toughest of times. Life challenges us with moments of stress, anxiety, depression, loss, and fear. During these times, it can feel like we're struggling to hold everything together. I know these moments intimately, and I understand the discomfort and frustration they bring.
I'm interested in helping you become your best, authentic self - whatever that looks like! Therapy is about relationships -- the relationship between therapist and client as well as the relationship the client has with themselves and others. My goal as a therapist is for you to feel seen, heard, and understood and to take that capacity and generalize it throughout your lived experience. As a therapist, I examine your memories, perceptions, and presence to paint a vibrant picture of who you are.
Nikki Day, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker and therapist with experience providing mental health services since 2019 through community mental health agencies, group practices, and private practice settings. She earned her Master of Social Work from the University of Denver in 2020 and completed her clinical licensure requirements in 2025. Nikki is the founder of Vivant Counseling, LLC, where she works primarily with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions.

In 2026, she expanded her professional licensure to include both Utah and Nevada, allowing her to broaden access to mental health care across multiple states.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Masters degree in Social Work. The areas I have emphasized further training on have been childhood abuse and trauma and the trauma disorders these experiences can cause such as CPTSD, PTSD, and Dissociative Disorders. I am also deeply interested in helping individuals who have been late diagnosed with ADHD and/or Autism to better understand how their brain works and how to approach life differently.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Utah
Searching for therapists in Utah can be easier with a clear sense of what you want support with and what kind of therapist fits those needs. Utah includes larger metro areas and more rural communities, so available therapists and specialties can vary by location. If you want support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or stress, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match what you want to address. Reading profiles can also help you compare therapy styles, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Your search may look different in Salt Lake City, Provo, Ogden, Utah County, or smaller communities across the state. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual therapy because it fits their schedule or expands their options. As you compare therapists, check whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that work for you, and provide a free phone consultation. A therapist’s bio can help you understand how they structure sessions, how they communicate, and what kinds of concerns they commonly support.
The cost of therapy in Utah can vary, and paying without insurance can become a significant expense. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket cost for mental health care. Headway helps you find Utah therapists who are accepting new patients, see estimated costs before booking, and compare options that may fit your needs, schedule, and insurance plan. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, so you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
