My name is Ailene and I am a licensed Marriage and family therapist. I’ve been working with children (6+) and their parents for nearly five years on a variety of issues like anxiety and behavioral management.

I am a compassionate mental health counselor with a professional background that bridges the fields of education and therapy. I began my career as a teacher working with at-risk teens. My journey then took a pivotal turn following the loss of my husband, which inspired me to fill the growing need for grief counselors and also deepen my passion for helping others navigate their own experiences of loss and hardship.

I have a Masters in counseling, and I enjoy working with adolescents and adults.

I love working with children, individuals, couples and families with a variety of diagnoses. I specialize in Anxiety, Attachment, PTSD and trauma including children with Anxiety, Behavior disorders, ADHD and ADD. I'm successful using EMDR, Family Systems Theory and effective Parenting skills. I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy approaches; teach effective play therapy and behavior skills that individuals can become proficient as well as communication skills where one feels understood and validated.

I’m Shannon, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s most challenging moments. I have vast experience with many populations as I’ve worked in residential treatment centers, crisis centers, outpatient clinics, and in private practice. I bring a deep, compassionate understanding of trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationships, and life transitions. I am also an expert in working with the eating disorder Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder. (ARFID)

With over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, I have developed an approach of direct communication while being a source of stability, safety and knowledge to my clients.

You will feel the warmth and understanding when we meet, while together we will assess how you got to where you are now so we can make a plan of action that fits your needs.

The genuine care and concern will not overshadow the goals you want to meet, or the support you need to heal and move on in life, so you are no longer stuck.

I work well with people who have a longer history of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationships problems, life transitions, grief and trauma. I also work with parents and children in an individual and family approach.

I also work with people who feel like they are under performing and would like to enhance their sense of self in order to connect better with others and reach their personal goals.

Greetings,

I specialize in treating anxiety, codependency, and trauma-related disorders, offering services to both individuals and couples. I emphasizes the importance of rewriting personal narratives, helping patients unlearn carried shame, guilt, and negative beliefs to become emboldened versions of themselves. My therapy style integrates philosophies from Buddhism, Taoism, and Stoicism into my therapeutic approach. I value building secure, trusting relationships to facilitate lasting change and offers flexible scheduling, including evenings and most weekends, for both in-person and telehealth sessions.

I was born and raised in Las Vegas but relocated to Utah with my wife in 2014. I have spent most of my career as a business consultant and enjoy helping others simplify complex issues. After my own struggles, I realized that these skills could easily be transferred to individuals who had challenges in their personal lives. I am drawn to working with others who are overwhelmed by all the demands life places on them.

I work with individuals across the lifespan who are navigating a wide range of mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My goal is to create a supportive therapeutic environment where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences, build resilience, and develop the tools needed to lead fulfilling lives.
