Hello—I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I received my Master’s degree from the University of Utah in 2009. I deeply believe in the value of seeking support—because being human means navigating both grief and gratitude, often at the same time.
There are seasons in life when we need additional support, and you don’t have to move through those alone. I strive in helping you reconnect with yourself, build self-trust, and make sense of what you’re carrying.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Salt Lake City starts with identifying what kind of support you need. Common reasons people seek therapy here include anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, and ADHD. If you're looking for medication management for conditions like bipolar disorder or depression, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit. Knowing your goals can help you narrow your search and find a provider whose specialties match your needs.
Salt Lake City has a large and varied mental health provider community, with licensed therapists practicing across Downtown, Sugar House, the Avenues, Holladay, and surrounding areas like Murray and Millcreek. When comparing providers, consider their credentials, areas of focus, and whether they offer virtual visits, in-person sessions, or both. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a sense of their approach and help you decide if they're a good match.
Therapy in Salt Lake City can be expensive without insurance — but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. Verifying your insurance before your first session is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
