Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not only a parent of three teenagers, I've also dedicated the bulk of my career to helping parents and their pre-teens and teens. I started a residential treatment center for adolescents as well as a therapeutic boarding school, was a psychologist for an outdoor adventure therapy program, was a therapist at an inner city group home for teenage boys, and the lead therapist on the adolescent wing of a locked psychiatric hospital and a group life coordinator at a juvenile corrections facility. Parenting is challenging and none of us are perfect. Great job seeking guidance and taking action to become the best parent you can be.

Kenny Levine
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Navigating co-parenting amidst challenging circumstances requires specialized support and guidance. As a co-parenting therapist with expertise in mediation, conflict resolution, communication skills training, and child development, I am here to help. My goal is to empower co-parents to prioritize their children's well-being while addressing the difficulties of high-conflict divorce.
In a safe, nonjudgmental space, I facilitate open dialogue and constructive problem-solving, helping co-parents find common ground and implement effective communication strategies. I equip you with tools to manage emotions, set healthy boundaries, and navigate co-parenting challenges with resilience and grace.
Together, we can establish a collaborative co-parenting relationship, promoting stability and emotional security for your children amidst the turmoil of divorce. Let’s work together to create a positive co-parenting environment for your family.

Richard Cox, PhD
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
Personally, I think being a parent is the hardest job in the world, but also the most rewarding and enjoyable. I speak as a parent of six, and I know as does any parent of more than one child, that each child is unique. Today we live in a world of many different parent-child dynamics. I once knew a young lady who had four mothers: her biological mother, the mother who adopted her, her step-mother, and her mother-in-law. For her, each relationship was different and unique. Each and every parent-child relationship is one of a kind. I will help uncover the uniqueness and rely on some universal truths about parent-child interactions to help your situation be more positive and satisfying.

Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting is one of the hardest jobs on the planet, and it is completely normal to feel overwhelmed, stuck, or triggered by your children. As a therapist trained in both Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help parents move from reactive, guilt-driven parenting to a more secure, compassionate, and "Self-led" connection with their children.
How I Can Help You:
Understand Your Triggers (IFS): Instead of fighting your "reactive parts" (anger, impatience, fear), we will get to know them. You’ll learn to unblend from the parts that shame you or yell, allowing you to parent from a calmer, more confident "Self".
Decode the Negative Cycle (EFT): We will identify the, often, unconscious patterns that leave everyone feeling disconnected or upset. By understanding the attachment needs behind your child's behavior—and your own—we can break the cycle of pursuit and withdrawal.
Build Secure Attachment (EFT & IFS): I provide a safe space to explore your own childhood wounds, ensuring they don't get passed down. You will learn how to show up as a secure base, helping your children feel safe, seen, and understood.
Together, we will move from perfectionism to connection, helping you raise resilient children while finding peace in your parenting journey.

Jordan Dye - Prepared Acceptance
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, EMT
When your career involves high-stakes decision-making and constant service to others, coming home to the complexities of parenting can feel like a different kind of frontline. It is incredibly difficult to shift from the "commander" or "crisis-responder" mindset into the patient, nurturing role that children require, and many professional helpers find themselves feeling irritable or "poured out" by the time they reach their own front door. Drawing on my experience working within the school system and my background in the military and emergency services, I provide practical, no-nonsense strategies to help you bridge the gap between your professional and personal life. We focus on finding the emotions driving your child’s behavior—and your own reactions—so you can lead your family with clarity and build a stronger connection without feeling like you’re constantly "on duty."

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.
