Therapists Beginning With D in Utah
I believe it is normal for anyone of any age to experience times of difficulty and challenging circumstances. It's easy to feel alone, hurt, helpless, and frustrated during these times and to wonder if the relief, growth, and increased connection you want is possible in your relationships. I believe anyone who is willing can change the way they experience life for the better. My goal is to help individuals, couples, and families, gain the skills and perspective needed to reach their goals and live a happier and more productive life.

Being human itself can be a challenging experience. Having a welcoming environment and experience itself can be new for many of us who do not experience welcomeness in our individual, couple and family experiences. If you are dealing with struggles related to anxiety, depression, parenting, relationship challenges and marital struggles, if you are in need of clarity and healing then I am here to help. I specialize in supporting individuals, families and couples in being more centered through challenges such as anxiety, stress, loss, grief and in simply being more connected to their true selves.

As a therapist, I take joy in helping individuals discover their own unique healing journeys, and in crafting their own solutions. I believe that satisfaction with one’s life is rooted firstly in connection with self, and then, with others. Whether you are navigating the complexities of singlehood, dating, marriage, stepfamilies, divorce, parenting, or faith transition, self-awareness and healing form the cornerstone of our responsibilities to ourselves.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. My heart goes out to those who are struggling to find hope in their lives. Is that you? Have you felt like giving up? When everyone else around you seems to be happy, you do your best to put on a smile and act as if everything is okay, but it isn’t. You are struggling. Maybe you are feeling depressed or anxious. Maybe you are struggling in your relationships including your marriage, but don’t know why. Maybe you need healing from something someone else has done to you (including your spouse).

Are you feeling stuck? Like you want your life to move forward or look a certain way, but you just don’t know how to get there? It’s okay! The feeling of stagnation could be due to lack of motivation, anxiety, depression, grief, loss or low self-esteem. Feeling stuck could also be a result of not understanding your own needs and emotions, or relationship concerns between partners or parents and children. Whatever your concern may be, you will be okay- you just need some guidance! I love connecting with people and facilitating the discovery of healing and empowerment that will lead to living a meaningful life.

Human beings deal with a phenomenon on a regular basis. We all have parts that pull us in various directions. A “part” of me can be excited about something while a “part” of me can dread that exact same thing. The model of therapy I primarily use works with this idea of having “parts” within our system that are trying to get our attention called Internal Family Systems. I also work extensively with couples who are trying to reconnect and find joy in their marriage by using Emotionally Focused Therapy. I help couples find the areas they get “stuck” in and help them find ways to get out of those cycles and reconnect.
