If you’re interested in therapy in Utah, consider online treatment. While an independent practice or a mental health center may be available in your area, barriers to treatment, like a lack of available providers or transportation issues, can make it challenging to find an in-person appointment. 

With BetterHelp, you can attend therapy with social workers, psychologists, and other mental health professionals from the comfort of your home at a time that works for you, making treatment more accessible and convenient. This flexibility can benefit busy UT students, professionals, or parents with limited time in their schedules. 

While BetterHelp does not currently provide group therapy or hold support groups, the providers on the platform can provide a welcoming environment for individual counseling and help you through your unique challenges. You can also request to have your counseling records transferred to your medical doctor or other provider if needed.

Whether you need to learn coping skills or mindfulness techniques or want to overcome past experiences, online treatment can help.

Hi, My name is S. Katie Roghaar (She, Her, Hers), and I have been working in the medical/mental health field for the last 12 years. I have been working specifically with substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health issues for the last 6 years, and this is how I fell in love with the social work field. I have extensive experience working with survivors of sexual assault as a trained sexual assault advocate. I have one undergraduate degree in Neuroscience from the University of Nevada, Reno, and another undergraduate degree from the University of Utah in human development and family studies. I received my master's in social work in 2019, then have been working in mental health crisis, substance use disorders, and many other mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I specialized in a trauma informed therapeutic model called Feminist Multicultural therapy (FMT) in my master's program, and that is the model I like to base my therapeutic style on because it provides me the freedom to provide client-centered therapy and utilize skills from Acceptance and Commitment therapy(ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and many different mindfulness techniques. I have helped many clients with relationship issues, sexual assault trauma, domestic violence trauma, self-esteem empowerment, substance use issues, suicidality, codependency, women's issues, and many other issues that have come up on my clients healing journey. I have worked with medical professionals, students, young adults, first responders, many female-identifying individuals, and the LGBTQ+ community. I love to see the growth and healing that my clients experience, and am very privileged to be a compassionate witness to their journey. I am so proud of you for taking the next steps in your healing journey.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist, and I have been practicing Mental Health and Addiction Therapy for the past 18 years. I specialize in providing healing to those who struggle with Substance Use, Depression, Bipolar, and Anxiety (specifically OCD, PTSD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Panic Disorder both with and without Agoraphobia). I also have experience with grief and loss, physical trauma, emotional abuse, and relationship conflicts. My counseling style embraces empathy, compassion, mindfulness, and empowerment. Patient Centered Therapy is one of my main therapeutic approaches, as it takes into account each person's own preferences, needs, and values before making any treatment decisions. My theoretical approach utilizes coping skills and techniques from both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Rational Emotive Therapy. The Practice of Mindfulness plays a significant role in my counseling style and approach as well. Mindfulness is very effective in calming the mind and freeing it from anxiety. It is a safe, effective healing therapy that provides long lasting positive changes. When we believe we are given more than we can handle, the next step is to begin the journey of healing. With healing comes self-confidence, well-being, freedom to control our thoughts and emotions, and to understand our purpose. It would be a privilege to enter into the journey of healing with you. As you begin the healing walk on the way of your journey, the healing way appears - Kyra Dawn Delcambre, LCMHC

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Some commonly asked questions can be found below.

How much does a therapist cost?

Mental health professionals can differ in price. Forbes found that the average cost of in-person therapy in the US is around $100 to $200 per hour. Pricing can also vary based on your location. 

BetterHelp offers payment plans of $60 to $90 per session, charged monthly in a lump sum. You can also take advantage of this pricing on one of BetterHelp's sister platforms, like ReGain for couples or TeenCounseling for teens aged 13 to 19.

Many therapists may be upfront about their pricing and whether or not they take health insurance from the beginning. Additionally, some in your area may offer a sliding scale plan to allow those with lower incomes to pay less for therapy. However, services online can often save individuals a few hundred dollars per month.

How do I know if I should get a therapist?

Mental health services and mental health providers may help you navigate various concerns. You do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy; You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general advice. A counselor may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Mental health issues don't always present as a crisis. Many professionals provide talk therapy and support for life transitions, skills learning, relationship problems, or life coaching. Online therapy sessions in Utah can allow clients seeking therapy to experience professional help through video, phone, or live chat sessions without commuting to an office.

Does insurance cover therapy?

Different counseling services can vary in cost. Therapists must apply to accept insurance through insurance companies, which may take time and money, so not every therapist offers services through insurance. If you cannot find a therapist that accepts your plan, BetterHelp may be cheaper than visiting an in-person therapist.

Is online therapy safe?

Online therapy through BetterHelp and its sister platforms is safe. Therapists are licensed, experienced, and vetted before being contracted with the platform. If you experience any concerns with your therapist, you change your counselor through the platform or app at any time.
