LGBT therapists in Midvale, UT

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families—regardless of sexual orientation—who are seeking deeper connection, healing, and clarity. Many people feel stuck in patterns of conflict, disconnection, or self-doubt and want to build healthier relationships, understand themselves better, and feel empowered in their journey. Together, we create a safe, affirming space to explore pain and possibility. I believe change is possible, and every person has the strength within them to grow, connect, and thrive.

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!

My education and licensing background includes:

Master of Arts - Integrated Recovery for Co-Occuring Disorders - Hazelden Betty Ford Graduate School

CMHC - Clinical Mental Health Counselor

LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor

LAADC/ICAADC - Internationally Certified / Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor

My name is Geoff and I've been working as a therapist for 6 years in both outpatient and inpatient settings. I have been a clinical director and a therapist in an inpatient treatment center for 5 years and working in general outpatient for 3 years. My work tends to specialize in trauma, mood disorders, and substance abuse.

Map & Lantern Counseling is about helping your chart your path forward through the unknown and sometimes treacherous waters of life. I want you to feel as if you are embarking on an adventure where along the way you obtain the best tools for you to conquer and overcome. I have been in the social service industry working with non-profit organizations for over 14 years as a social worker. I have worked in therapeutic foster care, homeless services, and residential inpatient treatment for mental health and substance abuse disorder. My experience working in community mental health with both men and adolescents, veterans, LGBTQIA+ and an extensive background in serving individuals struggling with addiction - I am confident in being able to assist with helping you navigate and achieve your goals.

I specialize in working with individuals navigating Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), personality disorders, trauma, and the unique stressors faced by first responders. I also enjoy supporting clients through major life transitions, including shifts in identity, relationships, and belief systems.

I am thoughtful about diagnosis and do not rush to label or pathologize clients. Instead, I focus on understanding the full picture of what you’re experiencing and creating a treatment plan that feels relevant, practical, and aligned with your goals.

I strive to provide an open-minded, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic space. I welcome conversations around diverse relationship structures, including ethical non-monogamy (ENM), as well as faith transitions, spiritual exploration, and deconstruction.

Whether you are managing anxiety, healing from trauma, navigating motherhood or identity changes, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to better understand yourself and create meaningful change.

Life can be a fulfilling and challenging journey. It is part of the human experience to need support at different times depending on our life stage or situation. Seeking support can be intimidating. I am committed to working collaboratively with clients to foster learning and growth, enabling you to live your best life.

Originally from Ohio, I moved to Utah in 2003 to provide therapeutic outdoor experiences to youth and families. I have spent much of my career working with adolescents and young adults after receiving my Master of Social Work from the University of Utah in 2008. As a LCSW, I think its valuable to utilize resources specific to an individual instead of resources specific to a therapist. With that, I primarily lean on the principles of DBT, ACT, CBT, MI, Seven Challenges, Narrative therapy and EMDR/Trauma informed approaches. I also have experience with substance use and problematic media and technology use. As a psychedelic-assisted therapist, I believe in set and setting as a foundation for growth.

I spend much of my free time outdoors and sleep better under the stars. I love the mountain and desert surroundings that Utah provides and can often be found boating, skiing, hiking, backpacking and traveling the western U.S. I am also a land steward in Cache Valley, raising a menagerie of animals and vegetables. I also enjoy cooking and listening to live music.

Hi, I’m Rochelle. I’ve been a therapist for over 25 years, and my goal is simple — to help you feel better, think clearer, and live your best life.

My sessions are warm, honest, and conversational. I don’t just listen — I teach practical tools and life skills you can actually use to manage stress, handle emotions, and build healthier relationships. Together, we’ll work through what’s weighing on you and find new ways to create peace and balance.

I take a whole-person approach — mind, body, and spirit — and I especially enjoy helping adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of their next step. Therapy with me feels like a safe, supportive space to learn, grow, and start feeling more like yourself again.

I am committed to helping clients feel safe, heard, seen, and valued. My social work and community health education background help me focus on wellness in all areas of your life!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's degree in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University and 18 years of experience in behavioral health and addiction services. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing substance use challenges, mental health concerns, life transitions, and personal struggles that can leave people feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from who they want to be.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing addiction, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, men's issues, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationship challenges, trauma, and major life transitions. I am passionate about helping clients discover their strengths, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe that healing happens when people feel accepted, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment where clients can explore their experiences without judgment. No matter how difficult things may feel today, I believe there is hope for growth, healing, and recovery.
