Connect With A Therapist Who Cares

My hope is to help. Whether you are dealing with challenges as an individual, a couple, or a family, we will work together in creating the changes you seek. You may have a specific goal in mind, perhaps even a fairly good idea of how to get there, but maybe not - maybe you're only aware of what you don't want and what's not working. That in and of itself is a perfectly acceptable place to start!

My skills are diverse, but I specialize in treating relationship issues and interpersonal conflict. Prior to counseling I pursued a career in Mediation, which entailed intensive training in communication and conflict resolution. Essential skills, really, when counseling couples through turbulent times or family members with differing worldviews.

Free 15 Minute Consultation

It's important to feel a connection with your therapist. My therapy style might not match your needs, so I offer a 15 minute phone conversation to see if we would be a good fit for each other.

Therapeutic fit between client and provider is a very important component of effective treatment, and not all providers will be a good fit for you. If we discover that my style, qualifications or experience are not a good fit for your therapeutic needs, I have an ethical responsibility to offer referrals for other providers and assist with a smooth transition rather than move forward with our therapeutic work together.

Utah Invisible Conditions Alert Program S.B 148.

Utah’s Invisible Conditions Alert Program is a voluntary program that allows a person with a qualifying physical or mental condition to have a decal placed on a driver's license or ID card. Utah's Invisible Condition Alert Program is designed to promptly notify first responders about a person's invisible condition that may directly impact the person's ability to communicate. Early identification of an invisible condition during interactions allows first responders such as law enforcement, firefighters, or emergency medical personnel to approach situations with heightened awareness and respond appropriately.

For more information or to opt into this program speak with your therapist.

Praxis Counseling does not provide crisis support and is not a crisis response resource. At any time, if you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please reach out to national and local crisis response teams:
