Many people struggle with feeling different, strange, or like others do not relate to them well. Many people feel like they have to hide who they are and have no place to be themselves. This goes for the person with depression who needs to reshape their relationships; the person with PTSD facing their painful past; and the gay person grappling with the consequences of coming out or not.
When contemplating “resiliency,” I am reminded of the wisdom shared by Thich Nhat Hanh in his quote, “No Mud, No Lotus.” This succinctly encapsulates life’s challenges and the accompanying suffering. While we often yearn for happiness devoid of difficulties, I firmly believe that these struggles are indispensable for our overall well-being, akin to the lotus requiring mud to flourish.
My role involves helping clients recognize their potential to bloom into something remarkable, even amidst adversity when the path seems obscured. Through the integration of mindfulness, self-compassion, and trauma-informed methodologies, I facilitate a journey where clients unearth their inherent strengths and resilience, fostering transformative growth from within.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience helping people navigate life's "weird left turns," from the mental game of competitive sports to the heavy landscape of grief, trauma, or a cancer diagnosis. I'm also a wife and mom who spent over a decade working in the foster care system before transitioning to the medical field and clinical work, so I understand the "everyday chaos" of being human. I've often been told I bring a unique blend of humor and compassion to the room. Whether you're a high-performer, a caregiver facing burnout, or a parents of a "tornado of feelings," I'm here to help you stop playing emotional whack-a-mole and start feeling like yourself again.
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.

Whether you are experiencing loss, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, a life transition, stress or need a sounding board, I am here to be a support!
I'm a Clinical Mental Health Counselor and have been working professionally as a therapist since 2023. However, I began working in the mental health field with children in foster care in 2016. My time with those kids made me realize that my passion for helping people was in therapy, not in medicine. During my program, I interned in the Alaska Child Trauma Center with kids as young as 2.5 years old. After getting my Master's degree, I began working in inpatient hospitals with teenagers. These experiences are what led to my interest in helping people of all ages work through trauma, suicidal ideation, and behavioral issues. As well as helping parents find the best way to manage their children's behaviors and find the best way to improve their relationship.
My name is David Hoffmann. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed since early 2015, and have been counseling for over a decade. I have been happily married for 34 years and have 5 adult children spread across the country. I have worked as a counselor for more than ten years. I work with couples and individuals and help with a wide variety of issues from Trauma to depression and anxiety.
I am committed to helping clients feel safe, heard, seen, and valued. My social work and community health education background help me focus on wellness in all areas of your life!

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.
