Grief counselors and therapists in Midvale, UT

Hi, I’m Sarah Stewart, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and founder of Pelorus Point — a practice dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s transitions with clarity and confidence. I am licensed in Florida, Idaho, Utah, and North Dakota, and bring over 11 years of clinical experience working with adolescents, adults, and couples.

My background includes a Master’s in Counseling Psychology and ongoing doctoral studies in Psychology, where my research focuses on language, identity, and inclusive mental health practices. My approach to therapy is eclectic and collaborative, blending elements of psychodynamic, narrative, and mindfulness-based work to create a space that fits you rather than forcing you into a specific model.

I specialize in working with clients navigating ADHD, dissociative disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, gender identity exploration, religious trauma, and relationship issues. My style is direct, grounded, and compassionate — I’m not afraid to challenge unhelpful patterns, but I always do so with respect and curiosity.

At Pelorus Point, my mission is simple: to help you find your true north — to better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and move toward a life that feels authentic and meaningful.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 26 years of experience taking a holistic approach to healing - helping people move forward in alignment with their deepest knowing and truest self-expression. I believe real healing creates sustainable change and brings more ease and joy to your life.

Besides client session, I also provide clinical supervision to students and prelicensed therapists, and mentoring/consulting to licensed therapists.

I offer in-person services in Eugene, Oregon and telehealth in Oregon, New Mexico, and Utah, and specialize in working with complex trauma, neurodivergent folks, highly sensitive people, LGBTQ+ clients, and anyone seeking to live with more freedom and alignment.

I have been a therapist for 10+ years. I received my Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Syracuse University. I have specialized training for trauma, anxiety, and attachment, depression, family systems, addiction, and perinatal and postpartum. My range of experience includes residential treatment programs for troubled teens, intensive outpatient, and community mental health. I love working with all ages.

Do you feel stuck in a cycle of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or even thoughts of suicide? Has it become difficult to remember what it feels like to live with joy, purpose, or peace? Mental health symptoms can become so overwhelming that they overshadow hope itself, making healing seem out of reach. But recovery is possible—with the right support, guidance, and a treatment plan that truly honors your whole self. I’m Michelle, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who believes in getting to the root of what’s causing your pain rather than offering short-term band-aids.

Brady and his wife are parents to eight children and were foster parents for 11 years, adopting six of their children from the foster care system. Brady has been a natural helper most of his life, as people are drawn to his ability to help them see change and hope in themselves.

If you have been feeling disconnected from yourself, overwhelmed by stress, or unsure how to carry everything on your own, you are not alone. Since 2019, I have supported people in a variety of settings and know therapy is not one size fits all. I bring a multicultural, LGBTQ+ affirming lens and help you move toward feeling more grounded, fulfilled, and like yourself again.

If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or worn down by life stress, you’re not alone. Therapy can be a place to slow down, gain clarity, and start feeling more grounded and in control.

I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, high-functioning anxiety, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Many clients come in unsure where to start or worried about saying the “right” thing. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are.

With over 18 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, EMDR, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness to help you understand patterns, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

My therapeutic style is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I am highly trained, deeply dedicated to my clients, and committed to providing effective care that creates real, lasting change. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and practical, offering not only understanding but also tools that you can use in your everyday life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Utah State University. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I have worked in the child welfare system for 10 years, advocating for families and individuals by helping them improve their lives and reach their highest potential.

I dedicate my life work to helping others find ease in their life along with meaning and purpose and whatever is most important to them and their loved ones. When we lost my son-in-law to addiction and suicide, this career was jump-started!
