Hi I'm Blair, a licensed clinical social worker with experience in behavioral health, residential, and community-based settings. My work is rooted in a relational, intuitive approach, with a strong focus on the connection between mind and body. I care a lot about helping people reconnect, with themselves, their bodies, and the world around them. Outside of therapy, I’m deeply drawn to nature and have led outdoor programs for adolescents around the world, which continues to shape how I show up in this work. Because of this background, I am offering walk and talk sessions in addition to virtual. I aim to be authentic, present, and genuinely curious with the people I work with.
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.

I'm a licensed therapist and social worker who supports teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity, and neurodivergence.
I'm crisis-trained, LGBTQIA-affirming, and bring both warmth and practicality to my work. I draw from DBT, CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to help my clients feel grounded, empowered, and in charge of their own story.
I earned my degrees at the University of Utah and completed my clinical training at Huntsman Mental Health Institute and the University of Utah Hospital, where I worked with clients working through complex physical and mental health conditions. I have particular experience working with depression, anxiety, Autism and ADHD, behavioral concerns, chronic mental health conditions, and clients facing self-harm or suicidal thoughts.
I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience across a wide range of therapeutic settings, including family, adolescent, individual, group, adult, outpatient, residential, and day programs. I help clients enhance their quality of life by using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Salt Lake City, UT
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Salt Lake City starts with looking for identity-affirming care. An affirming therapist may support people navigating identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for therapists who list experience with LGBTQIA+ clients, affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or World Professional Association for Transgender Health training. The right fit goes beyond general experience — a therapist’s listed specialties and approach should match what you want support with.
Salt Lake City has a range of mental health therapists, but LGBTQIA+-affirming options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and appointment format. Virtual therapy can expand your choices, especially if you want a therapist with specific experience or prefer more scheduling flexibility. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that work for you, provides a free phone consultation, or shares identity and background details that matter to you. Reading bios can help you see how each therapist describes their communication style, populations served, and approach to care before you book.
Therapy in Salt Lake City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Salt Lake City who are accepting new clients, compare bios, check appointment availability, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can review therapists who match your needs, accept your plan, and offer in-person or virtual appointments when you’re ready.
