Peace and Balance Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Will I ever feel like myself again? It can feel as though a part of you has vanished, leaving behind an emptiness nothing seems to ease. Life feels muted; colors less vivid, joy just out of reach. Some days, you hardly recognize the person you’ve become. You want to move forward, yet every step feels heavy and uncertain. When you think about the future, it often appears distant and dark, leaving you wondering how life reached this point.
Therapy with me offers a safe, supportive space to untangle the layers of your emotions, thoughts, and experiences. I provide a compassionate environment where you can openly explore anxiety, depression, and the challenges weighing on you. Even if you feel trapped by your current circumstances, it is possible to find clarity, direction, and a sense of freedom through working with a professional.
Will happiness return? Yes. Counseling can help you reconnect with who you want to be and how you want to feel. This is your opportunity to make a change and step away from the life that has been holding you down. Take the step you’ve been postponing and reconnect with your confident, joyful self. I’m here to help when you’re ready. Reach out today to begin.

Dr. Tatiana Turo-Handy | Licensed Psychologist (CO) | Bilingual: Spanish & English | PSYPACT‑Authorized
Becoming a parent is one of the most profound transitions in life and it can also be one of the most challenging. I specialize in supporting individuals and families through the full spectrum of the perinatal journey, including fertility struggles, pregnancy and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, birth trauma, perinatal grief and loss, and the complex emotional adjustment to parenthood.
I also work with adults experiencing generalized anxiety, depression, and interpersonal difficulties, offering a grounded, culturally responsive, and collaborative therapeutic space.
As a bilingual psychologist, I provide care in both Spanish and English. I also conduct comprehensive immigration psychological evaluations, including N‑648, T‑Visa, U‑Visa, VAWA, and Asylum evaluations.

Charles B. Walker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life's journey is filled with unexpected twists and turns—stress, anxiety, depression, and moments of feeling utterly overwhelmed. Often, we find our way through these challenges on our own. Yet, there are times when the guidance of a compassionate, licensed psychotherapist can be invaluable in restoring balance and steering your life toward greater fulfillment and joy. As your therapist, I offer more than just interventions; I provide a nurturing space to listen, understand, and actively support your path to well-being.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
We are a collective of couples psychologists united by the shared conviction that relationships deserve more emotional care and community support than our culture provides. Building and sustaining a loving partnership isn’t meant to happen in isolation — it takes a village. In today’s world, we ask more of our partners than ever before. Our partners are our confidants, our co-parents, our lovers, our best friends, and the witnesses to both our strength and our vulnerability. This profound closeness is one of life’s greatest gifts, yet it can also create immense pressure. At PCT, we strive to be that village — a steady emotional anchor for couples navigating the highs and lows of connection.
Every kind of couple is welcome here: those deeply in love, those in conflict, those recovering from betrayal, and those unsure of how to move forward. Together, we help partners rediscover what first drew them together while uncovering new ways to grow intimacy and trust. Our work isn’t about perfection — it’s about helping two people feel seen, understood, and supported as they evolve together.
Sometimes, relationships reach a crossroads. The clinicians at PCT are skilled at holding space for both partners’ perspectives, guiding them through painful or uncertain transitions toward clarity and peace. That might mean learning to co-parent respectfully, parting ways with compassion, or exploring whether staying together is truly right. Even after a breakup, we help couples find a way to relate from steadier ground — because healing, too, is a form of love. We remain beside you for as long as you need, until the storm calms and a new balance emerges.
We also offer individual therapy for those seeking personal growth, clarity, or support. Whether you’re navigating life transitions, managing stress, or simply looking to better understand yourself, our psychologists provide a safe, compassionate space to explore your goals and challenges.

Salt Lake City is the world headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and this religious and cultural reality profoundly shapes the city's therapy landscape — with therapists who can work thoughtfully within LDS family frameworks, navigate faith transitions, and understand the particular psychological pressures of a community where cultural and religious expectations are deeply intertwined serving an essential role. The city's growing tech industry — part of the 'Silicon Slopes' corridor — creates additional demand for therapists experienced with startup culture, high-performance careers, and the particular identity challenges of building secular professional lives in a deeply religious community. University of Utah Health and Intermountain Medical Center provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a well-developed private therapy community. Salt Lake City's significant LGBTQ+ population — navigating identity in a predominantly LDS cultural context — creates consistent demand for affirming therapists who understand the intersection of queer identity and religious community.
