Anxiety & Depression Therapy in Salt Lake City, UT
Your life is going crazy! So much that it's hard to handle! Maybe you feel stretched thin and pulled in so many different directions. Perhaps you feel like you cannot live up to anyone's expectations, even your own.
Anxiety and depression rarely announce themselves. They show up as ordinary days that take everything you have. You might be looking for therapy because you're:
- Waking up already behind, already tired
- Lying awake running the same conversation for the tenth time
- Snapping at the people you love most, then feeling awful about it
- Saying yes to everything and resenting all of it
- Avoiding calls, texts, and plans you used to enjoy
- Feeling numb rather than sad, flat rather than upset
- Convinced everyone else got a manual you never received
- Performing "fine" all day and falling apart in the car
You don't have to arrive with it all figured out. Most people come in able to say only that something is off. That is enough to start.
Here, we quiet the noise. You and I work to understand your triggers. We evaluate the expectations and demands and go on to assess for resources and strengths. At your pace, we go back in time to when the unhealthy patterns began. I guide you to exercise self-compassion, on your way to develop understanding towards your past self rather than resentment or shame. From there, I guide you to master tools to steady yourself when life feels like too much.
I am your biggest fan. I am cheering you on the whole way - through the ups and downs. Utilizing Solution Focused (SFT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), I help you discover the faulty thought patterns. I help you make necessary changes within your control and achieve a new identity filled with self-compassion and confidence.
You don't have to white-knuckle your way through this alone.

Format
50 and 90-minute sessions by tele-health available in Utah. Clients report seeing more progress with weekly sessions. This allows for clients to more easily implement new coping strategies and start to see real lasting change occur. I maintain consistent communication with clients concerning the frequency of sessions, allowing for adjustments when needed. Frequency of sessions can adjust to biweekly and monthly as clients progress towards their goals.
