Lloyd Stanton

Hi, I’m Joseph Stanton, LCSW. I hold a master’s degree in social work from Utah Valley University and have extensive experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating trauma, OCD, and mood disorders such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. As a certified Dialectical Behavior Therapist (DBT), I am committed to helping my clients set meaningful goals, build self-esteem, and strengthen their relationships through couples counseling. I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can explore your challenges and develop effective strategies for lasting change.

I believe that one of the most critical components of effective therapy is the relationship I build with each client. I am committed to creating a warm, supportive space where you feel accepted through unconditional positive regard. I trust that you are the expert on your own life and that you are the best person to uncover your unique solutions. My role is to provide resources and guidance that empower you to develop self-efficacy as you navigate your journey toward healing and growth.

In our first session, you can expect a non-judgmental, validating environment where you can truly be yourself. I take the time to listen carefully and care deeply about your experiences, ensuring that you feel heard from the very start. My focus is on helping you explore and discover solutions that work uniquely for you, empowering you on your journey toward living your fullest life. Clients often tell me that this initial experience of genuine support and understanding sets the foundation for meaningful growth and self-discovery.
