Jennifer Wong with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Life transitions—whether it’s a career change, moving to a new city, becoming a parent, or navigating other major shifts - can feel exciting and overwhelming at the same time. I help clients navigate these periods of change with clarity, emotional awareness, and practical strategies. Using CBT, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Family Systems approaches, we explore the emotions and patterns that arise during transitions, strengthen coping skills, and build supportive connections. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can reflect, adjust, and move forward with confidence, resilience, and a deeper understanding of yourself.

Allyson Eggleton with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
I support clients through periods of change such as career shifts, identity development, relationship changes, or post-grad transitions by helping them build clarity and direction. We work on tolerating uncertainty, reducing overwhelm, and identifying values to guide decision-making. I also help clients process the emotional impact of transitions, including grief, fear, or loss of identity that can accompany change. The goal is to move through transitions with greater intention, confidence, and self-trust.

Misty Nomberto with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
I have experience both personally and professionally with faith transitions and navigating them. I have supported people through other transitions, such as gender transition, adulting, marriage, divorce, parenthood, retirement, hospice, loss and grief. These periods of change often leave us feeling unmoored and uncertain. Together we will navigate these "in-between" stages by honoring what you’ve left behind while building the confidence and clarity needed to step into your next chapter.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Every major transition — a move, a loss, a new beginning, the end of something that defined you — strips away the structure you had been living inside without noticing. What remains can feel like nothing. That blankness is not emptiness. It is the space before the next thing, and it requires a particular kind of patience. Therapy during transition is not about figuring out the next step. It is about tolerating the interval long enough to discover what actually wants to emerge, rather than grabbing for the first thing that will make the uncertainty stop.

Dr. Sharon Herzog
Psychologist, PsyD
My client base ranges from 18 to 90 years old, so I have experience working with all the transitions of adult life. From school to career to marriage to parenthood to menopause to grief. My therapeutic approach of being supportive yet directive, and having insight into the emotions attached to each life stage is a valuable asset I bring to my clients.

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.
