Everyone's motivation to make that first call is different. Sure, moments of crisis or overwhelm are definitely worthy of working with a therapist. But, it's less about hitting a threshold of difficulty and more about recognizing when your typical coping mechanisms are no longer working.

Therapy can also be used as preventative maintenance or even a dedicated hour for personal growth and development.

Our Intake Team is happy to help you find the right fit, no matter the sign you're following through our doors. Give us a call today at (801) 525-4645.

It’s difficult to show in 90 seconds (and keeping HIPAA in mind 😉) what it’s really like to be a mental health counselor. The real magic of therapy is in seeing clients’ progress, sitting with them through their grief, and celebrating with them when they reach goals and make positive changes in their lives.

This is just a small slice of what it’s like in a day filled with caring for clients and self. If you’ve been considering therapy, call Aspire Intake Team to be matched with a therapist, like Jenny, who can help you learn the skills to manage your busy life as well.

Summer’s passion for helping women through life transitions began with life coaching. As a mom herself, she had compassion for the common, but all too often overlooked postpartum mental health needs of the mothers around her. She decided to pursue a Master of Social Work so she could provide the right tools to those needing this support.

Summer’s experience goes beyond women’s health though; she has particular passion for helping couples and families as she sees it as the foundation for healthy communities. She also enjoys working with teens who often are not yet discouraged by the world and have hope for a future they can create for themselves.

Outside the therapy office, you can find Summer adventuring outdoors under the sun, or curled up with a feel-good rom com.

If Summer sounds like someone who can relate to your experiences and provide support, visit her web bio or call our Intake Team to schedule an appointment at (801) 525-4645.

Meet Anna Smyth, a Master of Social Work intern who has been working in the mental health and wellness field for about 10 years. Her desire to serve clients deeper and more holistically led her to seek a second master’s degree and clinical licensure as a therapist.

Anna specializes in mindfulness-based practices, parent/child relationships, trauma healing, and stress management. She enjoys working with individuals of all ages and backgrounds.

When Anna is not in the office, she enjoys reading, lifting weights, trying new recipes, exploring the outdoors, picking tomatoes with her daughter, and taking afternoon naps in the sun.

We’re excited to introduce you to Liz Whitesides, a Clinical Mental Health Counselor intern who was inspired to pursue a career as a therapist after familial experiences with mental health and relationship challenges. Liz has found hope, healing, and courage through her own personal learning and awareness. She wants to give back and help others find the same healing.

Liz enjoys work grounded in a person-centered approach, supporting clients in developing greater self-awareness around their needs, values, and goals. She values a psychodynamic perspective to healing, recognizing that personal histories play an important role in shaping who we are today. She believes that exploring these patterns can help us better understand ourselves and identify what may be interfering with well-being, fulfillment, and healing.

Liz enjoys watching funny prank videos on YouTube and laughing her head off. She believes laughter makes life’s challenges feel lighter.

If you feel like Liz would be a good fit for someone you love, visit her web bio or call our Intake Team today to schedule an appointment.

Chocolate is great, but have you tried the soul-soothing power of saying "no" to a plan you don't want to attend?

There's a lot of "Treat Yourself" messaging out there, and don't get us wrong—we love a spa day as much as anyone, but there's a big difference between Surface Self-Care and Radical Self-Love.

Surface Self-Care is maintenance. It’s the "reset" button we hit when we’re stressed. It feels good for an hour.

Radical Self-Love is the transformation. It’s the "rebuild" of how you treat yourself. It’s often uncomfortable, un-aesthetic, and quiet.

This Valentine's Day, try something radical for yourself. Maybe it looks something like:

✨ Saying "no" without a 10-paragraph explanation.

✨ Forgiving yourself for that thing you did in 2019.

✨ Showing up for your therapy appointment when you’d rather stay in bed.

✨ Cleaning your kitchen because "Future You" deserves to wake up to a clean space.

What un-aesthetic way are you practicing self-love?
