Therapists Beginning With M in Utah

I believe that all healing starts with developing a sense of connection and empathy with yourself and others. I support clients 18 to 50 years old who desire building the life they always imagined through understanding their drive for change. Each client I connect with seeks to deepen their understanding of self through feedback, cultivates the ability to ask when they want someone to listen and knows that their trauma is not something to be forgotten but a piece within them to be nurtured for rewiring.

Life is complicated. Unhelpful thoughts and experiences from the past making things more difficult than they need to be. I help people process those experiences, sort out their values and priorities, build their capacity to be compassionate with themselves, create healthy boundaries for improved relationships, and learn how to regulate their emotions. Anxiety, perfectionism, and procrastination can have less influence on your life. If you are struggling with mood issues, anxiety, life transitions, or interpersonal relationships, I would like to talk about how we could work together.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or the stress of a major life transition? Do you, your partner, or your adolescent struggle with communication, trust, or unresolved conflicts? Or perhaps you're dealing with attachment issues, grappling with feelings of love, belonging, and self-worth. I understand the complexities of these challenges. You deserve to feel heard, understood, and supported. My goal is to help you rediscover your inner strength, improve your relationships, and find clarity and healing. Together, we can navigate these difficulties and work towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Accepting new clients! Be yourself with me- My clients describe me as accepting, calming and insightful. I have extensive experience working with teens, adults, couples and LGTBQ+. We know how hard it is to struggle with mental health. If you experienced trauma as a child, are someone who's social anxiety makes it hard to make friends, or someone who struggles to get out of bed due to feeling sad or overwhelmed, we can help! Together, we can explore just about any life problem, with goals of increasing your self-confidence, improving connection with your partner/friends, and experiencing greater levels of happiness & acceptance.

Curious why you can’t make the changes you desperately want for your life? Or maybe you’re totally stumped by repeating patterns, bizarre triggers or you just feel stuck. I’ve got you! I’m passionate about working with neurodivergent adults (ie. ADHD). I specialize in guiding you through healing and growth using proven, cutting-edge methods. Let’s get curious together as we navigate therapy techniques that get you doing and not just talking about it. Like psycho-babble-alphabet soup? Read on my brave friend!

As your therapist, my intention is to create a safe environment for you to be and explore yourself.  Together we'll bring awareness to your thoughts, feelings, emotions, body sensations, values, desires, memories and more, to deeply understand what its like for you to be you. Awareness opens the door for understanding, self-love, and change. To support your therapeutic journey, I use Transpersonal therapy, Gestalt therapy, Somatic-based trauma therapy, Process Work, CBT, dream work, inner child work, and shadow work. I specialize in LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and affirming letter writing.

Specializing in neuropsychology, my ideal client could have any of a number of cognitive and emotional challenges. I find that those with brain injuries (whether acquired, such as from a stroke or dementia, or from a traumatic event), and those with developmental or intellectual challenges (such as autism spectrum disorder, another specialty of mine) generally want real answers, not just behavioral or pharmacological control. They want to reclaim their independence and capacity to make their own, good decisions. They are willing to make the necessary changes to help make that happen.

Therapy, whether alone or with a partner, calls for an environment where you feel at ease and confident that you're truly listened to and understood. Creating this environment is my priority. By offering an unbiased, open-hearted perspective and focusing on building a foundation of trust, I aim to make our sessions about understanding your needs, addressing your main concerns, and fostering a strong connection. My approach centers on making your therapeutic journey uniquely yours through proven and validated methodologies, models, and frameworks such as EFT, Attachment Theory, Gottman, etc. Let's get started!

Navigating life isn't as easy as it looks sometimes. Depression, anxiety, and abuse are more common than people think. Family issues, partner issues, sudden behavioral changes, unexpected life adjustments, they all can have an impact on how we perceive life. Our perception often becomes our reality and sometimes our reality feels stuck. Rewriting your story can be a release from the past as much as writing a new chapter in life can be the change people seek. You have strengths to use against your limitations and parts of yourself that need attending.

We experience difficulties. We are all worthy of love and belonging. I provide a safe haven, a supportive non-judgmental place to grow and heal. I enjoy sharing the journey as motivated individuals and couples release patterns which no longer serve them, while discovering their strengths, resilience, goals, and, new ways of being and sharing. Sometimes, we need to acknowledge our limitations and reach for help to find our way. I am here for clients as they explore feelings and needs, and discover paths to more vibrant, connected lives ~ while making changes, or being with "what is" with new perspectives.

As owner and clinical director of Amber Creek Counseling, I have the ability to help that goes beyond my own clinical abilities. I love my job and as a therapist I want to work with everyone, but I understand that my schedule does not match with everyone.

Please reach out if you are considering focusing on your mental health for any reason. I look forward to getting to know you!

To start, I am available for a consultation call to see if we are a good fit for one another. Being able to connect with your therapist is THE most important part of your journey. So, come with me on a journey of self discovery, one in which you will be free to be open and to be your authentic self. The road may be difficult at times, but I promise to walk beside you the entire way so that you always have a trusted person next to you, even if that means having to step into the dark together to find the light.

I focus my trauma-informed care on supporting people as they seek to heal from trauma and/or grief as well as learning to see the greatness within themselves. Along with the tools and skills we practice together, you will also gain deeper understanding from education, setting meaningful goals, and developing positive core beliefs.

All relationships and individuals face challenges. Yet, the challenges faced by a neurodiverse person or couple is unique and requires a unique perspective. That's where I come in! As your therapist, I will help you navigate communication, support in understanding others and encouragement in finding your own voice and needs. Whether there are concerns with autism, ADHD (Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder), OCD or other areas of living, I am here to help!
