Depression Counseling, SALT LAKE CITY, Utah

Depression Therapy in Salt Lake City, UT

Support for Low Self-Esteem, Shame, and Feeling Not Good Enough

You try so hard to do everything right, but no matter how much effort you put in, it never feels like enough. That heaviness you carry inside—the self-doubt, sadness, and hopelessness—makes everyday tasks feel impossible. When someone says, “I love you” or “You’re amazing,” you don’t believe them. Instead, your mind whispers, “They’d leave if they really knew you.”

You look around and wonder why it seems so easy for everyone else. They get up, go to work, laugh with friends, and seem genuinely happy. Meanwhile, you can barely find the energy to get out of bed, shower, brush your teeth, or put on anything besides pajamas. You hide your pain, believing that opening up would only push others away.

You are more than you believe you are.

You Feel Like a Burden—But You’re Not

Maybe you’ve lived with the belief that you’re a problem in others’ lives. When something goes wrong, you’re quick to blame yourself—even when it’s not your fault. You minimize compliments and dismiss positive feedback as people “just being nice.”

Each day feels like you’re moving through molasses. You look in the mirror and see someone unworthy, unlovable, and broken. You can list every flaw you think you have but struggle to find a single quality that makes you feel like you're enough.

You Are More Than Your Inner Critic Tells You


As a therapist who specializes in depression, self-esteem issues, and toxic shame, I work with people who feel like they are drowning in their own thoughts. I help individuals learn how to challenge their inner critic, reconnect with their sense of self-worth, and slowly emerge from the fog of depression.

In our sessions, you'll find:

  • A safe, judgment-free space to say what you’ve never said out loud

  • Tools to fight back against negative self-talk

  • Support in exploring the root of your shame and emotional pain

  • Humor, honesty, and a lot of heart (no pompoms, but plenty of encouragement)

Therapy for Depression and Low Self-Esteem Can Help You Reclaim Your Life


I’ve spent the past nine years helping people in Salt Lake City and across Utah who feel overwhelmed by sadness, shame, and a constant sense of inadequacy. You don’t have to hit rock bottom to ask for help—and seeking therapy doesn't mean you're broken. It means you're brave enough to want something better for yourself.

My approach is person-centered therapy, meaning I tailor our work to meet you where you are. I see the good in people even when they can’t see it in themselves. In therapy, we’ll move at your pace, working through the hard stuff while discovering how strong, lovable, and worthy you truly are.

You don’t have to do this alone.

You Deserve to Feel Like You Matter


You’ve already taken the most courageous first step—acknowledging that you want help. That means a part of you already believes you’re worth saving. And that part is right.
