Depression
Jennifer Wong with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Depression can make everyday life feel heavy, isolating, or overwhelming, and it often comes with a sense of being stuck or disconnected - from yourself, your relationships, or your purpose. I work with clients to gently explore these feelings, uncover the underlying emotions, and identify patterns that contribute to low mood. Using a combination of CBT, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Family Systems approaches, I help you develop practical coping strategies, strengthen emotional awareness, and build more supportive connections with yourself and others. My goal is to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, understood, and supported as you take steps toward renewed energy, clarity, and hope.

Depression
Allyson Eggleton with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
I work with clients experiencing low mood, lack of motivation, and persistent self-critical thinking. Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting patterns that reinforce depression, including withdrawal, negative beliefs, and difficulty engaging in meaningful activities. We incorporate behavioral activation, cognitive restructuring, and self-compassion practices to gradually improve mood and functioning. I aim to help clients build momentum, reconnect with purpose, and develop a more balanced and supportive internal narrative.

Depression
Compassionate Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Depression symptoms can range from feeling kind of "Eyore-ish" to having the sensation of trying to walk through life in a suit made of wet mud. The sluggish and often energy-sucking sensations that come with feeling sad, isolated, and even hopeless often suck away the joy of the life you've created. Together we can find a way to release you from your overwhelm and begin accessing a full range of emotional experiences successfully.

Depression
Richard Cox, PhD
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
Depression is extremely debilitating. Medications can be helpful, but recovery requires consistent effort on the part of the client or patient. I will help you with that. Depression is a disorder that is not always the same for everyone, and remedies can vary considerably from individual to individual. That is why there are so many different antidepressant medications. I will help you figure out what works for you.

Depression
Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
When treating depression I typically take a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach. We look at how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and how when in a negative mindset we can spiral ourselves deeper into depression. We will also examine our negative self-talk and or irrational beliefs that could be contributing to depression as well as a holistic approach that encourages a healthy lifestyle and behavioral activation (taking action).

Depression
Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
My therapy services are designed to address the unique emotional and psychological challenges that gay men often face. Growing up and living in systems that stigmatize and marginalize us can lead to anxiety, depression, trauma, shame, and isolation. I offer a safe, affirming space where you can explore these experiences, find healing, and build resilience.
Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma
Gay men experience higher rates of depression, often rooted in rejection, discrimination, and past trauma. Together, we’ll identify the sources of distress and use evidence-based strategies to reduce symptoms, improve mood, and restore balance. For those healing from trauma or PTSD, therapy offers a supportive environment to process painful memories and regain a sense of safety and control.
Building Confidence
Stigma and chronic stress can undermine self-worth. My approach focuses on strengthening self-esteem, developing healthy coping tools, and helping you cultivate self-compassion and confidence.
My Approach
I use a client-centered, affirming approach that validates your experiences while empowering you to grow. With years of experience working with gay men’s mental health, I integrate proven therapeutic methods to support you in creating lasting change and living more fully and authentically.

West Valley City is Utah's second-largest city and one of the most ethnically diverse communities in the state, home to large Latino, Polynesian (particularly Tongan and Samoan), and refugee communities that make it dramatically different from the predominantly white, LDS suburban cities surrounding it in the Salt Lake Valley. This diversity creates significant demand for multilingual and culturally competent therapy, and the intersection of mental health needs across immigrant, refugee, and Pacific Islander communities with Utah's broader LDS religious culture—which shapes community norms around mental health and help-seeking—creates a complex and underserved landscape. Intermountain Health and Valley Behavioral Health provide services in the area, and community health organizations address the specific trauma and adjustment needs of refugee populations. Common therapy concerns include immigration and refugee trauma, acculturation, family stress, economic anxiety, and the challenges of navigating mental health in a city where cultural and religious contexts vary sharply across neighborhoods.
