Anxiety Therapy Online for Residents of Tooele, UT
Welcome
Are you looking for compassionate online therapy in Tooele, Utah? Lifeβs unexpected challenges can leave you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. At Inner Heart Therapy, I provide confidential, LGBTQ+ affirming online therapy to residents across Utah, including Tooele. My goal is to create a safe space where you can process your experiences and regain a sense of peace.
If youβre struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, or navigating LGBTQ+ identity, I offer the support you need to break free from overthinking, heal, and move forward.
As an ex-Mormon therapist, I understand the complexities of faith deconstruction, family tensions, and redefining your identity outside of religious structures. Whether youβre processing religious trauma, setting boundaries, or seeking clarity, I provide a compassionate, judgment-free space for you to explore what feels right.
Tooeleβs rural location can make finding an affirming therapist difficult, but online therapy removes barriers, ensuring you can get the care you deserve without long commutes or waitlists.
Letβs take the first step toward healing together you donβt have to do this alone.
You will receive a response in two business days.
What anxiety looks like in Tooele
Anxiety here can be quiet until it is not. Your mind ramps during a long stretch past the Smelter Road exit. Your chest tightens when inversion settles in or the budget gets tight. You hold it together on a shift at the hospital or with a commute to the base, then you snap at home and feel guilty. Harvest weekends, school calendars, and winter darkness add more weight. If you are not sure what you are dealing with, we will map it together and choose small steps that fit life in Tooele Valley.
How therapy helps
We keep it practical and kind. First we notice your tells, breath speed, jaw set, shoulder lift, racing thoughts. Then we test small skills you can use before a hard talk, between tasks, or when bedtime turns into scrolling. I pair clear thinking tools with nervous-system work so decisions get easier and your body can settle. If you want more body-based support, I also offer polyvagal-informed tools and the Safe and Sound Protocol. Sessions are online across Utah, so you can meet from a quiet room at home, your parked car near Settlement Canyon, or any private spot that works.
Support for Tooele rhythms
Rotating shifts, long drives to SLC, coaching or caregiving, and weather whiplash can wreck sleep and mood. We will build routines that flex with your calendar. Short focus blocks for busy mornings, down-regulation after late finishes, and steady steps away from all-or-nothing thinking.
LGBTQ+ affirming therapy in Tooele
This is care where your whole self fits. Bring questions about gender, sexuality, dating, family, church history, being out at work, or choosing privacy. No trimming parts of you to be understood. We move at your pace, keep safety at the center, and build belonging that actually feels like yours.
FAQs
Are you licensed to work with clients in Tooele?
Yes. Iβm licensed in Utah and provide online therapy to adults in Tooele and surrounding areas. Living in a smaller town shouldnβt mean going without the care you need. My virtual sessions are private, accessible, and designed to meet you where you are, without requiring a long drive or settling for a therapist who doesnβt quite get it.
What if Iβve had a hard time finding a therapist who understands me?
Thatβs exactly why I built this practice. I work with people whoβve felt misunderstood, overlooked, or burned out by therapy that didnβt fit. You wonβt need to downplay your identity, explain the nuances of your experience, or prove that your pain matters. My approach is gentle, affirming, and deeply informed by how your nervous system responds to the world around you.
Is anxiety therapy right for me if Iβve tried talk therapy before?
Yes, especially if past therapy left you feeling more intellectualized than supported. My work goes beyond just talking about whatβs wrong. Together, we focus on helping your body and brain shift out of survival mode using polyvagal-informed and body-based techniques. If youβve ever said, βI understand why I feel this way, but I still feel stuck,β this work might be what youβve been missing.
Online therapy allows me to work with adults in Tooele and throughout the entire state. Visit my Utah therapy page for more info.
