Peace and Balance Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Justin Williams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker committed to helping individuals across the lifespan build emotional wellness, resilience, and meaningful change. Based in Salt Lake City, Justin provides virtual therapy to clients throughout Utah and New Jersey, offering accessible, convenient care. Many clients begin therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed by racing thoughts, weighed down by hopelessness, and unsure how to move forward. Justin partners closely with his clients to clarify concerns, examine unhelpful thoughts and beliefs about themselves, and regain a sense of confidence and direction.
Justin integrates evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to help clients recognize and challenge judgments about themselves, others, and the world around them. Many of the individuals he works with experience intense stress, anxiety, depression, and persistent self-doubt that interferes with daily life. Through therapy, Justin supports clients in identifying their strengths, rebuilding self-worth, and moving ahead with a more balanced and hopeful perspective.
Creating a safe, supportive space is central to Justin’s work, allowing clients to explore anxiety and depression without judgment. With experience serving individuals from diverse backgrounds, his approach is both trauma-informed and culturally responsive. Justin understands that each client’s experiences are unique and believes their care should reflect individualized, thoughtful solutions rather than a one-size-fits-all model.
Justin understands that many clients feel constrained by the direction their lives have taken. He is committed to helping them gain clarity and a greater sense of freedom through professional support. In addition to the convenience of telehealth, he provides a flexible schedule with evening and weekend appointments to better accommodate his clients’ needs.

Online therapy allows people to select a therapist based on their specialty, and the ability to meet their unique needs, and not simply their location. Being licensed in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania, I am able to work with people in both of those states hoping to address specifically anxiety/stress, trauma, parenting, and relationship stress.

My mission is to bring ease to therapy with a relaxed, down-to-earth approach, where comfort and insight go hand in hand. Clients can look forward to several key benefits from our sessions, including Enhanced Self-Understanding, Coping Strategies, Personal Growth, Increased Emotional Well-being and Insight.
I specialize in a wide range of areas, including anxiety and depressive disorders, trauma and post-traumatic stress, sexual violence, grief, coping with chronic illness or cancer, life transitions, relationship and family issues, low self-esteem, women’s and men’s health, as well as caregiver distress and burnout.

I take a very participatory approach in sessions.

I aim to create a collaborative environment where we work together to explore challenges, identify solutions, and foster growth.

Melissa Berschauer
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Whether you are an expert with online meetings or are a little hesitant to start telemedicine, I promise you, online therapy with me doesn't feel like another stiff, robotic Zoom meeting. I’ve intentionally designed my virtual practice to feel just as warm, connected, and down-to-earth as sitting across from each other in a cozy office. You get the exact same focused, high-quality care and deep collaboration—just without the stress of fighting traffic, rushing to an appointment, or even having to put on real shoes.
We live busy lives, and finding a block of time to take care of your mental health is hard enough. Telehealth makes it incredibly easy to fit real, impactful support right into your day, whether you're logging on from your couch, your office, in your car (while parked), or a quiet corner of your home. All you need is a comfortable spot and a secure internet connection, and we can get to work getting you unstuck, wherever you happen to be.

Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Online therapy with me is a confidential, secure space where you can show up exactly as you are, no commute, no waiting room, just you in a setting that feels safe and familiar. In sessions, we slow things down, notice how trauma and stress are living in your body and relationships, and work together to build more choice, safety, and connection in your daily life. I use a trauma‑informed, warm, direct, and collaborative style, and I will always move at a pace that respects your nervous system and your limits. Many clients appreciate the flexibility of telehealth, especially when balancing work, caregiving, and health needs, and find that being in their own space lets them be more honest about sex, intimacy, and other vulnerable topics. If you are looking for online therapy that is attuned to both your story and your nervous system, we can use our time together to make practical, meaningful changes one session at a time.
