Teresa Salais

LCSW
Accepting Clients

I am a dedicated mental health therapist passionate about guiding individuals through trauma to rediscover their strength and joy.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Layton, UT

About My Clients

I support individuals dealing with trauma, depression, and anxiety in a compassionate and safe environment. Specializing in trauma-informed care, I help clients process their experiences using techniques like EMDR, fostering resilience and healing. For those facing depression, we work together to challenge negative thoughts and nurture self-compassion. With clients struggling with anxiety, I provide practical tools and mindfulness strategies to cultivate calm.

My Background and Approach

My passion for supporting individuals through trauma, anxiety, and depression is deeply rooted in my own journey with trauma. I know firsthand how overwhelming these challenges can be, and my heart is dedicated to helping you navigate through them. I provide tailored and effective tools that I've refined over my career, ensuring you leave with at least five techniques to carry with you for discreet relief whenever you need it. Specializing in trauma-informed care, I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to facilitate healing from distressing memories, fostering resilience and inner peace. I approach our sessions with a direct and solution-focused mindset, collaborating with you to tackle anxiety attacks as they arise. Together, we’ll explore how your thoughts, bodily responses, and brain activity intersect during moments of anxiety, empowering you to regain control. I am here to guide you towards lasting healing and a brighter, more hopeful future.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I deeply believe in the innate ability of every person to heal from trauma. While trauma can profoundly affect thoughts and emotions, it does not define who you are or what you can become. My personal journey has shown me that healing, though challenging, leads to self-discovery and resilience. With the right support and tools, individuals can reconnect with their true selves and find peace. I am committed to providing a safe environment for you to explore your experiences and empower you on your healing journey. There's life & Healing After Trauma.
