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. If you’re looking for an online therapist, UT has many individual counseling services available. The providers on the following list are licensed to provide individual therapy online in Utah. If you need immediate support, please see the resources on our Get Help Now page.

Adrienne Gamble
I want to hear your story, honor your strengths, and foster a sense of control over your life. I specialize in working with people within the LGBTQ+ population -- especially Transgender individuals at any stage of their transition process, Non-monogamy/polyamory relationship structures, relationship communication issues (friends, partners, etc.), self-esteem, anxiety, depression, cancer (patients and/or family members), religious trauma/leaving a particular religion, etc. I use evidence-based interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and more. It is my passion to help people move their lives in a more fulfilling direction one step at a time while taking care to build a solid, strong foundation. I will work with you from a place of genuine respect and warmth. I use a holistic-based, person-centered approach, exploring the roots of behaviors/thought patterns and how they inform the present. I can help you build your self-confidence, repair relationships, and lessen the hold anxiety and depression has had over your life. I am a part of the LGBTQ+ community and I have worked with individuals of all denominations, cultures, races, ethnicities, sexualities, genders, and identities. If these words have resonated with you in any way, contact me and I will be glad to help. **Please Note: I have a fluffy cat who likes to appear on camera while in session so if that is in any way triggering for you then I might not be the best counselor for you unless you wish to utilize the messenger feature instead. I just wanted to put that out there.

I am basic trained in EMDR and have additional training in maternal mental health. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Some of the most commonly asked questions about therapy can be found in the section 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.
When should I get a therapist in Utah?
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 can allow clients seeking therapy to experience professional help through video, phone, or live chat sessions without commuting to an office.
Does insurance cover the cost of 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 the safe option?
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.
