Greetings! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have been involved with helping people resolve their unique challenges and struggles for over two and a half decades. My approach to counseling is “Person-centered”. That means your answers are to be found within you. The problem is you may not know how to listen very well to that inner guiding voice. In fact, you may have learned to doubt and to ignore it. Such blatant self-disregard can actually be the cause of much of your frustration and disturbance. My challenge is to help you learn how to hear yourself better, which comes by reconnecting with your emotions and mending the rift between your heart and your mind. The “Person-centered” journey is an insightful one and, at the conclusion of it, you find “self-realization”. There you recognize that the true-you is the solution and not the problem. I look forward to helping you find that inner guide within you. With warm regards, Dennis Tucker, LCSW

35 years of experience

A FORWARD-THINKING, EXPERIENCED THERAPIST Licensed Mental Health Therapist with 35 years of in-patient and out-patient clinical experience working with adults, adolescents, children, and families. Specializes in working with relationships, complex trauma (childhood trauma within families), PTSD, anxiety, stress disorders, addiction recovery, blended family issues, extended family issues, and spiritual crisis. I lived and worked in Seattle for 28 years and in 2016 moved to southern Utah for the landscapes and the red rocks I love. I have a deep respect for personal struggles. I also have great confidence in the therapeutic process based on the transformations I've witnessed in the lives of the men, women, and young people with whom I've been privileged to work. Many of my clients are high-functioning, corporate professionals, first responders, healthcare professionals, therapists themselves, or people who have been in therapy before but seek a more integrative approach. I also work with people new to therapy who are seeking to build a more solid foundation for their emotional health. The heart of what I do is create the space for clients to address the issues that are keeping them from moving forward in life. My style is active and direct. I'm trained in trauma-informed and evidence-based approaches. I'm a Jungian and experiential therapist and use Rational Emotive and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapies. I've taught the MBSR, Jon Kabat-Zinn's 'Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction' course and integrate elements as it can be extremely effective in working with anxiety as well as targeting the very roots of addictive behaviors. As a therapist I draw not only on my education, but also on my life experiences as a woman, a daughter, a sister, a wife, and a mother. I am by nature interested in the world around me and continue to educate myself both formally and informally. In 1993, I began to practice Vipassana Meditation, a simple form of sitting/walking meditation. This continues to support me personally and has informed my work over the years. Thoughts are powerful. They shape our lives, impact our health, and play an important role in our ability to be creative. Thoughts impact the choices we make throughout our lives and can help us respond with resiliency when life challenges us. I advocate living life with compassion. Change is hard. Most of us resist change for fear of what's unknown in the future. I understand it takes courage to reach out for help. If you wish to work with me, bring your grit, your honesty, but most importantly a strong commitment to yourself. I'm here to help.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I began my college education in a humble town located in Hawaii where I was raised until the age of 21. I completed my undergraduate degree in psychology through distance learning and later earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2007 from the University of Phoenix. I currently practice via online telehealth only and have done so since the beginning of the COVID pandemic. My therapy approach is eclectic, meaning I combine different therapeutic approaches based on the presenting concerns and goals that are adapted to the needs of the person via the use of cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, brief therapy and solution-focused therapy with particular attention to the psychoanalytic processes, which emphasizes how life events and relationship experiences both past and present may be affecting your current issues and circumstances. What I can bring to the counseling environment to help you with this is a style that I believe to be approachable and warm so that my patients are able to 1) actively process and explore, 2) find their way, 3) learn about themselves and 4) grow to be directors of their life. In short, to help you have the most successful experience in counseling it is important to me that we work together in establishing what your needs are and how I can be of most benefit to you. With that comes responsibility for your mental health and dedication of your time to your mental health needs. To be more specific, I ask that you not just do therapy sessions once a week for 30-45 minutes but that you have a proactive and committed intention of working on your mental health needs outside of therapy as well via homework that is completed in a timely manner as opposed to completing it right before your sessions; I need time to look over said homework and cannot do this effectively when it is sent back the day of. I am genuinely interested in what brings you to therapy and hope that you would feel comfortable working with me as I look forward to working with you. Lani

I am excited for you that you've chosen to take a step towards healing. It can be scary to face your own judgments and fears. I also think some of the most beautiful experiences come from when we truly embrace our most authentic selves and it requires true strength and bravery to show up for yourself in your most authentic way vulnerabilities and all. I know what it feels like to be lost, broken, confused, or frustrated in life. Together we can help you strengthen your abilities to cope with the twist and turns of life. Don't feel like you currently have any abilities to cope? Don't worry we can find them in you and develop them too. I believe in the healing nature of secure relationships. When you engage in therapy it's my goal to create a safe environment for you to express and explore your story. This helps us both better understand what's happening that brought you to therapy. I work compassionately while monitoring my own life experiences and judgments to ensure I am showing up for you in the most authentic and helpful way. I welcome feedback on our work so I can improve how I work with you. Therapy with me is very collaborative, I listen and gather information, and then listen more. I want to understand you and your unique struggles. Our work together will focus on your goals and help you see improvements in the things that matter most to you. We can identify ways to cope more effectively and change old-held beliefs for a more adaptive outlook on life. My work experience has a vast range. I've worked in homes with developmentally disabled adults, residential, day treatment, and intensive outpatient substance abuse rehabilitation centers, working on the streets with our homeless and those with severe persistent mental illness, in private practice, community mental health agencies, and in schools. Because of the various environments and unique people in each environment, I have been blessed to meet, work with, and alongside some truly amazing people. I have worked with ages 5 to 80+ years of age. I was born and raised in Provo Utah and went to New York University for graduate school. Having spent time in two very different environments I have again been exposed to a variety of backgrounds which has made my life richer. I love to travel, I have visited England and India while seeing the inside of airports in Germany and Iceland so far. I hope to add Italy, Ireland, and Scotland to the list soon. My friends and family describe me as warm, friendly, silly, passionate, and easy to talk to. I have often said to my clients, I may be the one with a fancy paper on the wall, but you are the expert in your life, with the ability to enact the most amazing changes. Sometimes we just have to have some guidance, support, and unconditional love and acceptance. I think you should always feel comfortable with your therapist, If you meet me and decide I am not the right fit, that is fine I would encourage you to find the therapist that is the right fit. It's when we feel supported and safe that we are better able to explore and enact lasting change in our lives.

Hello. I have been a mental health counselor for 20 years; currently residing in Utah. prior to that was NY and FL. I work with an array of concerns, including, but not limited to marriage and family, childhood trauma, attachment disorder, ADHD, disordered eating, anxiety/mood disorders, anger management, substance use, grief and loss, and some psychotic disorders/behaviors. I have also worked with individuals and families involved with divorce/blended/separation issues; including reunification and parental alienation. As a Christian, I believe in meeting people where they are, with respect, dignity, humility and compassion. My therapeutic approach includes EMDR, existentialism, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and solution-focused. Our therapeutic relationship is that of a dance; sometimes you will lead, sometimes I will lead. Our dance will be slow and steady at times and yet other times unsteady and off beat. Please understand that sometimes, the dynamic of the dance will seem uncomfortable and you will doubt whether or not you can continue; rest assured, that is where I begin to lead you. I will teach you the dance, in other words, how to cope with whatever it is you are struggling with. Then one day you will lead, by mastering the skill set needed to overcome whatever difficulties lie ahead in your given situation. It is a process that requires patience, trust and kindness on your part - being kind to yourself, but also, gradually allowing yourself to trust and be patient with the process. It takes great courage to reach out for help from a stranger! And you are very brave and courageous by taking the next best steps in this journey; this dance! I consider it a privilege to work alongside you. Blessings, Jessica

Hi. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of Texas, Utah, Washington, Oregon, Colorado and Arizona. I am also pending in Tennessee and New Mexico. I am a NBCCH (National Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and I am also a Certified Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist (CAGCS). Navigating life can be hard. There is no manual, and many of us did not grow up with good models or examples we want to emulate. Some of us are seeking tools and resources to evolve and grow beyond our current limits, others need a sounding board or someone who believes in us and can cheer us on. Regardless of your need, my goal is to help. As human beings, we all find that we need other perspectives, support, ideas and ways of being, at various points in our lives. I would love to be that for you. I have worked with individuals and groups for over 20 years, both in a clinical setting as well as in a crisis intervention capacity. I have witnessed and assisted people from essentially birth to death with all things related to being human and all the beauty and complexities that come with that. My one desire as a therapist, is to always leave people better than I found them. I will meet you where you are with sensitivity, warmth and compassion, and we will walk this healing path together at a pace that is set by you. I believe establishing a strong rapport with mutual respect is key in achieving lasting change. I believe the way in which we have experienced life dictates how we choose to live each day and the quality of our relationships, influences how we cope with stress, sadness and even joy that life inevitably brings. I use a combination of therapy to help clients identify problematic or distressing patterns or behavior, reflect on how their experiences in life have shaped these patterns and encourage clients to discuss possible solutions. I combine many therapeutic modalities to develop your treatment plan by using a strengths-based approach to empower goals tailored to your needs and areas of concern. No two of us are alike and we all experience life differently. Therefore, the approach to healing must also be flexible. My goal is to establish a connection, whereby both you and I will partner, addressing that each person is an individual and worthy of a safe space to heal and be present in their goals as an evolving human being. I believe that prioritizing one's mental health is an investment in self, and is an active step towards your healing journey. 
I acknowledge the courage it takes to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and commend you for your choice in reaching for that goal. I look forward to working together. *once a session has been scheduled, I will message you to touch base and confirm. If you do not see a day or time available that suits your needs, please reach out to me via the therapy room message option and we will work together to schedule a mutually agreed upon session.*

I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in the state of Nevada.

I also help many people who face physical and sexual trauma, emotional abuse, substance abuse, LGBTQ+ issues, and parental challenges. As a social worker, I must focus on the whole person. I believe mental health is multi-dimensional and most events in our life shape our mental health. My strategy is to personalize dialog and treatment plans to meet your specific needs. I have experience using many modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Behavior Modification, and Psychotherapy. We will work together to explore which modalities and treatment approaches will help you achieve your personal goals. I have gained many critical life experiences in fast food, manufacturing, and retail industries along with working as a preschool teacher and children’s caregiver. I believe that this helps me connect with people from various environments and backgrounds. With work, family, school and everything else life throws at you, it is completely understandable that taking time for yourself can be challenging. The fact that you have taken steps to begin self-care is amazing and I look forward to guiding you through this rewarding journey!

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Washington Terrace area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Washington Terrace therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Washington Terrace due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a psychologist: $100

While many psychologists in Washington Terrace may not take health insurance, some in the state of Utah may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Utah you can expect significantly more affordable options, with therapists sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

Therapists have been qualified and certified by their state's professional board after successfully completing the necessary education, exams, training and practice with a patient, and extensive experience in a healthcare clinic or treatment centers, in order to become a mental health provider. While their lived experience, expertise, careers, and background vary, therapists here all possess at least 3 years and 1,000 hours of hands-on experience with adult and sometimes teen patients, and have the necessary therapist credentials to provide a safe space for long lasting emotional healing in therapy.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Washington Terrace?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Washington Terrace therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors and therapists are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Washington Terrace therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A Washington Terrace therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in UT, therapists may be booked out with clients. Through the list of profiles or therapists above and others within BetterHelp's team, you may be able to find a psychologist within 24 to 48 hours. If you're searching to find a a nearby psychotherapist close to 84405 or the surrounding zip codes, consider others available through the BetterHelp site where you can schedule a session based on your and the therapist's schedule. No matter if you are seeking help from therapists in your area or beyond, online therapy can be a great option.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Washington Terrace counselor?

Before seeing your Washington Terrace therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns or feel unsure about what to talk about. Washington Terrace therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Washington Terrace licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Washington Terrace counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Washington Terrace, Utah can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Washington Terrace has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
