Therapists in American Fork, UT

I have a Master’s degree in Mental Health/ Mental Health Counseling. Which has enabled me to get my Clinical Mental Health Counselor license in the State of Utah. I have 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. In that time, I have gained a lot of experience in the areas of individual, couples, parents and family therapy. I have several areas of which I have gained expertise in such as; trauma treatment, substance abuse treatment, attachment and family dynamics, as well as grief and loss. I believe that for any change in someone’s life they need to first have a safe place to start from. I try and create that safe place in counseling, to allow you as my client to decide what changes you want to make and how to overcome whatever obstacle their facing now. I work from a place of compassion and empathy as well as straight honesty. I believe that we are all doing the best we can in life and sometimes we just need a little help to change where we are. In my life I have many things going on but for me what helps keep me grounded and moving forward are my desire to help others, my dog Coda and my creative spirit. I am a native Utah resident and have experience both in and out of the LDS church. I currently run a parenting group that allows me to reach many needy families and I find it very fulfilling.

Welcome! Congrats on taking that step to begin your online therapy journey with us!! My name is Stephanie and I'm a licensed clinical mental health counselor from Salt Lake. I received my Bachelor's degree in psychology from scenic Southern Utah University (go T-birds!) and received my Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling from La Salle University in Philadelphia (Go birds again!). The majority of my post-Master's work Is with addiction and dual diagnosis so lots of depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. I've also been heavily involved in marriage and family counseling as well as coaching life skills and effective communication. I am very CBT and behavior-oriented but I also know connecting and having a good relationship with your therapist is key and my job Is to help you feel comfortable and ready for change. With that being said, a good therapist will also call you out on your challenges and hang-ups and that can be a difficult but very rewarding experience. I love getting creative with my therapy techniques and interventions because it makes therapy more fun and why couldn't it be? I wish the best of luck to you on this journey! You deserve it!!

I have proudly served as a licensed professional counselor since 1996. My journey began in community mental health, where I found great fulfillment in helping individuals. However, I was inspired to shift my focus to law enforcement, becoming a mental health professional dedicated to supporting both the community and our courageous officers. After an enriching 20-year career in a local law enforcement agency, I retired in 2019, leaving a legacy of crisis intervention and compassionate service. Throughout my career, I have stood by individuals and families during some of their most difficult moments. I have navigated complex issues such as mental illness, addiction, domestic violence, sexual crimes, child and elder abuse or neglect, and various tragic circumstances, including natural causes, suicide, homicide, and accidents. These experiences have reinforced three powerful truths: people possess remarkable resilience, they are deeply eager to be heard, and they remain open to exploring options when a foundation of respect and trust is established. My ideal client embodies these qualities, demonstrating a readiness for growth. I offer telehealth counseling, providing flexible options tailored to your needs. My extensive professional and personal history enables me to effectively support various individuals and families. Moreover, I have a particular passion for working with first responders, both sworn and civilian, and understanding the unique challenges they face. If you are seeking an open-minded, culturally competent therapist who thrives on creative solutions and innovative approaches, I encourage you to reach out with your questions or interest. I welcome the opportunity to engage in challenging, complex, and meaningful discussions. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to the privilege of assisting you on your journey!
