Utah Center for Evidence Based Treatment
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Our expert child therapists provide quality, Evidence Based Care for Children and Adolescents. We treat a range of common childhood difficulties (e.g. school refusal, separation anxiety, self-harm, depression, ADHD, encopresis, PTSD, etc).
We work with children and their parents across the lifespan. In our experience, we find that a combination of working both with child and parents leads to the most effective and lasting results. As such, our team will carefully craft a treatment plan that best suits the needs of your family, which may include individual child treatment, parent coaching, or both. In this way, we take a collaborative approach to help your family navigate complex developmental challenges.
