Benjamin Conner Trauma To Peace Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S. Clinical Mental Health Counseling, LPC, EMDR, Veteran
I use a combination of evidence based practices proven over time to lead individuals from trauma to peace.
I offer you a pathway from pain and fatigue to peace and empowerment. This comes from one who has endured it. I understand trying to make it to the next minute or the next day and it seeming impossible. I was tired too. I have a different life now. I don't believe in people needing counseling weekly for years on end. Lets work together for relief. You will overcome the obstacles in your way and build skills that help you take on whatever comes next.
I understand treating these issues with EMDR, CBT, ACT and more, guiding healing for individuals and families. Working, parenting, and relationships are difficult on their own, and with trauma, anxiety, or depression in the background it can seem impossible. Treating those injuries from the past and present can change your life, strengthen your identity, and heal your relationships.
Reach out to me, lets build some trust and get some work done that makes your life and your mind feel different. We are 100% online, no need to travel, we can work with you anywhere in Texas or Utah.

Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
You're here because you're feeling stressed, stuck, or simply wanting to grow—and I’m here to help. Together, we will navigate the internal and external challenges you’re facing, so you can move through them with greater ease and clarity. In our work, your feelings, process, and perspective will be validated and supported in a safe, compassionate space. And sometimes, we don’t always see or understand what we truly need. My approach to therapy helps you develop the skills to navigate relational and emotional challenges while deepening your understanding of what may be missing and how to meet those needs. Life is already hard enough—you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to offer you a safe, skillful, and supportive space so you don’t have to.

Amority Health - Rachel Cooper - Therapy for High-Achieving Women
Therapist, MS, LPC Associate
If you’re a high-achieving woman in the HFHA loop of constant striving to get things “right,” struggling to say no, or feeling anxious and exhausted from relentlessly trying to keep up with everything, you understand firsthand how overwhelming it's becoming to maintain the mask.
You may find yourself overthinking decisions, being highly self-critical, or feeling like you can’t quite settle, even when things are going well. Over time, these patterns can become mentally exhausting and difficult to shift.
In session, we focus on understanding what’s driving these patterns and aim to develop a more flexible, sustainable way of thinking, responding, and relating to yourself.

Christine Fatherree @ Unwritten In Stone Psychotherapy PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I believe I have 2 superpowers. One is listening and the other is being curious. These create a powerful amalgam for change when used with proven therapeutic tools. Change can be scary, but sometimes we take a step into the unknown in spite of our fear. I believe this is being brave. That is the step that can move you toward the change and understanding you want.

Dr. Jacob Lebar
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Figuring out how to create meaningful change in your life can feel overwhelming, especially if you aren't sure where to start. I work with and for adults to manage the daily realities of anxiety, OCD, panic, and comorbid depression. My practice is explicitly neurodiversity-affirming; I dedicate a significant portion of my work to helping adults unpack the impact of living with overlooked ADHD or Autism into adulthood. Additionally, my background as a former lawyer gives me a grounded, firsthand perspective on the unique stressors faced by individuals in highly technical, high-pressure professional fields. If you are ready to explore what therapy can do for you, we may be a great fit.

Debbie Cherry
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
After 25 years as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in CA, TX & FL. I know conflict is not the problem. Conflict is natural in close relationships. What matters most is HOW couples talk to each other when emotions run high. That’s why I created the research-based Happily Partnered Playbook — to help couples end negative cycles and grow closer.

Courtney Loyola
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Becoming — Not Broken.
You've found yourself researching 'Am I a narcissist?' in the middle of the night, you have constant questions as to 'How did I get here?' and 'Why do these things keep happening to me?' You've lost someone very close to you and now you are spinning out and can't seem to find your feet. You keep repeating patterns that bring the same people into your life and leave you in pieces after they've left. You're ready to change, you just don't know how or where to start.
I believe healing is not about fixing what’s wrong with you, but uncovering the strength and resilience that have always been there. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by complex trauma, narcissistic abuse, or deep grief. Together, we create a safe, grounded space where painful experiences can be processed and integrated — not avoided. Our work is centered on helping you reconnect with your voice, your clarity, and your capacity for secure relationships.

Madison Short Conteh - Joy in the Morning Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, RPT
I've been practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist for nearly a decade now, and I love this work because it is so full of hope. Usually, when people come to see me, they're not feeling very hopeful, because the problem feels too big to handle. It's sucking the joy out of their relationships, or their life, and they're overwhelmed. Life has let them down, they've been disappointed, and now they're stuck in a spiral of the worst feelings. Some part of them though, knows there is hope out there, that things can be better and they can have relief. That's where therapy, and my role in your story, comes in. I get to hold the hope for you, because I know this path. I've been walking it with people just like you for years. I know that parts of this path are hard, or scary, or beautiful, or relaxing, and I know that all of it is heading towards you experiencing freedom. We walk it together so that you don't have to hold your own burdens,
I have special skills that help us along the path like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). This is a way we use the brain's natural ability to process information, and alleviate feeling stuck in a past experience or experiences. It's especially useful for trauma.
I use Person Centered Talk Therapy. We create the space to sit together with what's on your mind or your heart, to give it what it needs, and move through it.
I use Child Centered Play Therapy so that kids can have the same benefits of therapy as adults, but in a child-attuned way. Kids aren't ready to talk through things, they express them through behaviors. Play therapy gives kids the opportunity to play through those behaviors and find healing.
With parents I offer Child Parent Relationship Therapy training, where I give you the same tools I use as a therapist, but to use within your own home.
In all of this, I often integrate things like somatic work, parts work, and sandtray work.

Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I work with high achieving women, caregivers, and helping professionals who are used to being the one who holds everything together. They anticipate needs, take responsibility for other people’s emotions, and say yes when they mean no. They push through when they are depleted and keep going long after their capacity is gone.
For a long time, this worked. It earned success, stability, and connection. Until it didn’t.
Most clients come to me when burnout has turned into resentment. When relationships feel one sided. When the emotional load becomes impossible to ignore.
This is not an individual failure. These patterns are often shaped by early roles, expectations, and environments that rewarded overfunctioning and self sacrifice.
In our work together, we focus on identifying these patterns, understanding what is actually yours to carry, and building the capacity to do less without collapsing into guilt or anxiety.
This is not about becoming a different person.
It is about creating a life that feels sustainable, reciprocal, and aligned.
If you are waiting until things calm down or get worse before reaching out, that waiting is part of the pattern.
You do not have to keep doing this.
