Therapists in Koosharem, UT

Hello, I am Tamara Wright (you can call me Tammy) and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who is licensed to work in Utah, a Mental Health Counselor also licensed to work in Washington and a Clinical Professional Counselor licensed to work in Nevada. I have worked in the mental health field since 1991 when I began as a psychiatric technician at the Wyoming State Hospital. I have also worked as a Case Manager for Valley Behavioral Health in various settings. These past experiences inspired me to become more educated in the mental health field and become a therapist. I received an AS in criminal justice (with a strong background in criminal profiling) in 2012 from the Salt Lake Community College, a BS in both psychology and anthropology (cultural anthropology with a strong background in anthropology of religion) from the University of Utah in 2012 and an MS in clinical mental health counseling from the University of Phoenix in 2016. I have experience as a therapist working in the mental health field as well as substance abuse field and worked at Project Reality as an intern and at Odyssey House and Cornerstone Counseling as a primary therapist in residential and outpatient settings. Modalities I use in therapy are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral therapy and other solution oriented approaches in my therapy as well as art, existential and narrative therapies. Due to my anthropology background, I enjoy working with individuals from various ethnic and religious backgrounds and I am culturally sensitive and informed in my practice. I also have experience working with the LGBTQ+ community. I like to make sure that my clients feel that they are in a “safe place” where they can share their feelings without judgement of any kind. In my spare time significant other and cats watching scary movies, writing (I write under a pen name), cooking, gardening and collecting antiques. I like to crochet, make bread, candles and soap and go on an occasional adventure. I currently work out of Utah where I am licensed and have a license in Washington and Nevada as well.

Hi, there! My name is Tamra Priestley and I am a clinical mental health counselor (CMHC) living in Utah. I am also a Life Coach, specializing in the essentials of self-mastery, and relationships. It is my passion to help people have successful relationships, first with themselves, and then with others. It has been a joy to help those who are seeking to learn skills necessary for successful relationships! Most people just don’t know how! I have also been privileged to help many individuals overcome the devastating effects of anxiety and depression. I experienced this devastation myself and no longer suffer from those emotions. I want to help you learn how to live more peaceful, productive, and happy lives. I have also worked with many individuals who have experienced pain from trauma and abuse in all the ways that can happen. This leads to lack of motivation, poor self-esteem, lack of confidence, depression and anxiety. Trauma and abuse may affect every part of your life until healing occurs. I want to help you heal those parts of your past. My experience includes working in three private practices (now my own) and for a company providing services to their employees, including first responders and law enforcement and their families. I have worked with the elderly experiencing end-of-life issues. I love working with people from all walks of life. Each person is so important! Drawing from my own experiences as a single parent, a son who has several challenges, adoption, divorce, abuse, and many other experiences helps me to utilize my professional training in a way that is personal and effective. I believe in homework that helps you grow beyond the sessions. I welcome the opportunity to help you in your current challenges to find meaning and purpose, learn new skills, and experience a healed and happier life!
