Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Most people who don't progress in therapy, have undiagnosed neurodivergence. We have the ability to help get you tested. We know the neurodivergent resources to help you to get the information you need to understand what you or a loved one are going through. You will be able to feel the difference during our sessions. You will gain the skills and knowledge to make change happen outside of therapy.

Alina Hovsoyan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support autistic clients by creating a calm, predictable, and person-centered therapeutic space where their communication style, sensory needs, and processing patterns are honored. Using a neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed approach, I help clients increase self-understanding, reduce anxiety, and build practical skills for emotional regulation, social navigation, and daily functioning. I draw on strengths-based strategies, and structured tools that support clarity and autonomy. Together, we explore routines, relationships, sensory overwhelm, and executive functioning challenges with compassion and flexibility. My goal is to empower autistic clients to feel safe, capable, and authentically themselves—while helping them build lives that work with their nervous system, not against it.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
We appreciate that while people on the spectrum might have some difficulties in life, having a different brain doesn't always have to mean something negative. A lot of the work we do is helping our clients see how their unique brains are contributing to dynamics in their relationships, and what that means moving forward. Sometimes a better understanding of the way one's mind works can help augment relationships in powerful ways.

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.
