Accelerated Resolution Therapy
ART incorporates a combination of techniques used in many other traditional psychotherapies. ART works directly to reprogram the way in which distressing memories and images are stored in the brain so that they no longer trigger strong physical and emotional reactions. ART accomplishes this through the use of rapid eye movements similar to eye movements that occur during dreaming. Although techniques similar to these are used in other types of therapies, ART’s very specific and directive approach can achieve rapid recovery from symptoms and reactions that may have been present for many years. ART combines long respected, sound treatment practices with safe and effective methods validated by current scientific research studies conducted by the University of South Florida.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing)
TF-CBT (Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
TF-CBT (Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
This EMDR specialization will help guide and inspire you to achieve more of your personal and professional goals. EMDR is a specialized procedure in which the therapist guides you in concentrating on a troubled memory or emotion while you move your eyes rapidly back and forth (by following therapist fingers). Clients create a Dual Awareness toward their troubling memory or emotion. It happens fast and can speed up the process quicker than traditional therapy can.
TF-CBT (Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
TF-CBT (Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
TF-CBT (Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
As its name implies is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy that addresses the specific emotional and mental health needs of children, adolescents, adult survivors, and families who are struggling to overcome the destructive effects of early trauma. Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) is especially sensitive to the unique problems of youth with post-traumatic stress and mood disorders resulting from abuse, violence, or grief. Because the client is usually a child, TF-CBT often brings non-offending parents or other caregivers into treatment and incorporates principles of family therapy. Counseling

Invisible Condition Alert Program
Utah’s Invisible Conditions Alert Program, created by the Utah Legislature during the 2023 Legislative Session, is a voluntary program that allows a person with a qualifying physical or mental condition to have a decal placed on a driver's license or ID card.
Utah's Invisible Condition Alert Program is designed to promptly notify first responders about a person's invisible condition that may directly impact the person's ability to communicate. Early identification of an invisible condition during interactions allows first responders such as law enforcement, firefighters, or emergency medical personnel to approach situations with heightened awareness and respond appropriately.
Utah Code 53-3-207: Invisible conditions include: a communication impediment; hearing loss; blindness or visual impairment; autism spectrum disorder; drug allergy; Alzheimer’s disease or dementia; post-traumatic stress disorder; traumatic brain injury; schizophrenia; epilepsy; a developmental disability; Down syndrome; diabetes; a heart condition; or any other condition approved by the department.
If you choose to participate in this voluntary program and your therapist diagnoses you with a qualifying invisible condition, your therapist will assist you in completing the invisible condition request form and submiting it to the Driver’s License Division by mail, fax, email, or nearest office location.
