Life can feel incredibly heavy when the past refuses to stay in the past. If you’re tired of "just getting by," feeling constantly on edge, or noticing that old history is intruding on your present, I want you to know something important: healing does not have to be a retraumatizing experience.
I specialize in helping adults navigate unresolved trauma through a lens of total safety, pacing, and respect. You deserve a space where you can finally let your guard down, drop the heavy armor, and reclaim your story. Whenever you’re ready to transition from surviving to truly living, I am here to walk that path with you.
Nikki Day, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker and therapist with experience providing mental health services since 2019 through community mental health agencies, group practices, and private practice settings. She earned her Master of Social Work from the University of Denver in 2020 and completed her clinical licensure requirements in 2025. Nikki is the founder of Vivant Counseling, LLC, where she works primarily with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. While maintaining a generalist approach, she has developed specialized experience supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and survivors of domestic and sexual violence. In 2026, she expanded her professional licensure to include both Utah and Nevada, allowing her to broaden access to mental health care across multiple states.
Life is beautiful and joyful, and deeply challenging. My passion is to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s difficulties. I strive to provide a supportive space where you feel understood and empowered. I center each client as unique with their own history, culture, perspectives, strengths, and challenges. I have worked with clients with a variety of concerns, such as struggles with identity development, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and grief.
I approach therapy as a collaborator. My method is client-centered and humanistic. I aim to accompany my clients in achieving the goals brought into the therapeutic environment with openness, empathy, and compassion. Creating goals in small steps is vital for progress and change. Identifying insecure attachment and dysfunctional patterns will lead to lasting change. My clients can learn to recognize unhealthy cycles and gain a deeper understanding of their attachment styles.
Currently, I do not provide therapy for couples or minors.
