True Self Counseling Utah

True Self Counseling Utah True Self Counseling provides individual, couples, and group therapy to children, teens and adults. in addition to more expressive therapies.

At True Self Counseling, we believe that each of us has inherent worth and value. We all carry within us the ability to heal, grow, and find true happiness and peace. We begin to struggle when we lose sight of that individual worth and begin to let our actions and beliefs be based more on the world around us than on the voice within us. Our goal is to help our clients strengthen that inner voice and live a life consistent with their authentic selves. We work with a variety of issues, but specialize in treating trauma, anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, ADHD, LGBTQ+ issues, life transitions, and faith transitions. We also have therapists who specialize in work with children, as well as therapists who work with families and couples. We take a client-centered approach, meaning that we value each individual and their fundamental worth, and we view our clients as equal partners in the therapy process. We believe that there is not a one size fits all approach to therapy, so we utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches to connect and communicate with our clients in the way that works best for them. Because children express themselves and their needs through play, we rely heavily on play therapy, art, and sand tray therapies. For older adolescents and adults, we provide traditional talk therapy (such as CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, etc.) We are also trained various trauma approaches, including EMDR, IFS, CPT, and TF-CBT. We strongly believe in and promote acceptance and inclusivity, and we welcome people from all backgrounds, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, genders, religions, and abilities.

When we spend years living under the weight of religious expectations or the "shoulds" of a specific community, our own voice can get lost in the noise. Navigating a faith transition isn't just about what you are leaving behind—it's about who you are becoming.

At True Self Counseling, we provide an affirming, non-judgmental space to explore your identity development outside of external pressures. When we strip away the "shoulds," who is left? That person—your True Self—is the one we want to meet.

Untangling your values from your upbringing is a brave and often lonely process. We are here to support you in navigating religious trauma and finding a path that feels authentic to your own internal authority.

Deconstructing a belief system can feel like losing your map. If you’re looking for a steady place to find your footing and redefine your world on your own terms, we are here to walk alongside you whenever you feel ready.

In the journey of trauma recovery, we often tell ourselves we are safe, but our bodies might still be bracing for impact. True healing happens when we move beyond just "knowing" we are secure and start helping our nervous systems feel it again.

At True Self Counseling, our trauma-informed approach honors the profound body-mind connection. We utilize evidence-based tools like EMDR Utah to help you process old memories that may be stuck in a cycle of high alert.

Your nervous system deserves to experience reclamation and peace. By focusing on somatic healing, we work together to release the physical weight of the past so you can return to your True Self.

Healing is a quiet, personal process that requires a high level of safety. If you feel ready to explore what life could look like with a more grounded nervous system, our door is open whenever you'd like to reach out.

In our relationships, we often feel the most pressure to be "perfect" right around Valentine’s Day. But at True Self Counseling, we know that real, authentic connection isn’t built on grand gestures—it’s built in the messy, un-glamorous moments of repair and understanding.

Relationship health thrives when both partners feel safe enough to be their True Selves. Healing and reconnection don't happen by avoiding conflict, but by ensuring that both people feel truly seen and heard when things get difficult.

By shifting the focus from "fixing" your partner to practicing values-based communication, you can build a partnership that supports the growth of both individuals.

Connection is a lifelong journey. If you and your partner are looking for a way back to each other, we offer a safe, non-judgmental space to start that conversation. You can find more about our approach to support via the link in our bio.

For many neurodivergent individuals, "fitting in" is a full-time job. We call this masking—the subconscious effort to hide ADHD or Autistic traits to meet neurotypical expectations.

But masking comes with a steep price: autism burnout and deep exhaustion. At True Self Counseling, we believe your True Self shouldn't have to be hidden to be considered worthy or successful. You deserve to live in a way that honors your natural wiring rather than constantly working against it.

If you are feeling drained by the performance, know that there is a path to a more sustainable, authentic life. We specialize in neurodivergent therapy that focuses on understanding your needs, not just managing your symptoms.

If you’re tired of carrying the weight of the mask, we offer an affirming, non-judgmental space to explore what it looks like to just be. Our link in bio has more information on how we support unique brains whenever you're ready to connect.

We often hear that self-love is about indulgence—bubble baths, treats, or spa days. While those moments of rest are beautiful, true self-love often happens in the quiet, less "glamorous" spaces.

Sometimes, it’s the difficult work of setting a firm personal boundary to protect your peace. Other times, it’s the radical act of forgiving yourself for a mistake instead of letting your inner critic take over. At its core, it’s about learning how to be a safe person for yourself.

By tuning into your inner voice with self-compassion, you begin to prioritize your mental wellness not just as a goal, but as a way of being. You don't have to be perfect to be worthy of your own kindness.

Practicing self-kindness is a journey that doesn't have to be walked alone. If you’re looking for a space to explore what it means to truly support your True Self, we are here to walk alongside you whenever you feel ready.

By early February, the initial spark of the new year often begins to fade into the quiet routine of winter. If you’re feeling a bit "stuck," or as if you haven't made the progress you'd hoped for—take a deep breath. You are not behind.

At True Self Counseling, we believe that healing starts with feeling seen and heard, not with checking boxes on a productivity list. Sometimes the most important work of your week isn't what you do, but simply acknowledging your inner voice and giving yourself permission to move at a slower pace.

Whether you're navigating a heavy season or just a heavy Thursday, your experience is valid. You don't have to have it all figured out to be moving toward your True Self.

If you’re looking for a quiet space to process the weight you've been carrying, we’re here to walk alongside you. Our link in bio offers more about how we can support your mental wellness journey whenever you feel ready to connect.

As we head toward the season of celebrating love, we want to invite you to start with the most important relationship you have: the one with yourself.

True self-compassion isn’t just about "treat yourself" moments; it’s about becoming your own best friend. It’s about listening to your inner voice with kindness rather than criticism. At True Self Counseling, we believe you are the expert on your own experience.

Instead of waiting for external validation, practice giving yourself the same grace you so freely offer others. Choosing self-love is an act of courage that leads to lasting mental wellness. You are worthy of your own kindness today, exactly as you are.

Kindness toward yourself is a practice. If you’d like a guide to help you find that inner friend, our link in bio has more on how we can help.

In our relationships, we often find ourselves setting goals for "the other" or trying to fix behaviors that frustrate us. But what if we shifted our focus toward shared values instead?

At True Self Counseling, we believe that relationship health thrives when both partners feel safe enough to be their authentic selves. Healing and reconnection start with the simple, yet profound, act of being truly seen and heard by your partner.

We help couples move beyond the cycle of conflict and into a space of intentional living and communication. By aligning with your shared values, you can build a partnership that supports the growth of both individuals. You both deserve a relationship where your True Selves can flourish.

Living authentically in a world that often demands conformity takes immense courage. At True Self Counseling, we believe that vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness.

We are proud to be an intentionally affirming environment where who you love and how you identify is not only respected but honored. Whether you are currently coming out, exploring your gender identity, or simply looking for a therapist who "gets it," we provide a non-judgmental space for your journey.

Your unique voice and experience are essential. We are here to support the LGBTQ+ community with care that sees, hears, and understands the whole you.

You deserve to be yourself, fully and safely. Click the link in our bio to learn more about our inclusive and affirming therapy services.

Did you know that your body often remembers what your mind tries to move past? Trauma isn’t just a memory; it can show up as physical tension, "brain fog," or a constant state of high alert.

At True Self Counseling, we specialize in trauma-informed care that honors the body-mind connection. We use powerful, evidence-based tools like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help your brain and body finally release the weight of the past.

Healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means finding the safety and strength to reclaim your True Self from the experiences that have held you back. You don't have to navigate this struggle alone.

The third Monday of January is often referred to as "Blue Monday," but we prefer to call it Brew Monday. It’s a day to intentionally pause the "holiday hangover" or the winter slump and reach out for connection. At True Self Counseling, we believe that your inner voice knows exactly what you need to feel regulated and grounded, even when the world feels heavy.

Take a moment today to grab a warm tea or coffee, check in with yourself, and perhaps reach out to someone you trust. Healing starts with feeling seen and heard—and sometimes that begins with a simple, honest conversation over a warm drink. How are you really doing today?

If you’re finding the winter months difficult to navigate, we’re here to help. Send us a DM or visit the link in our bio to find a guide for your journey.
