Treatment
Children
If your child is suffering from anxiety or OCD I’d love to help. I’ve been working with children and their parents for many years.
Teenagers
There are so many pressures for teenagers and anxiety and OCD can be crippling. This is a safe and helpful place for them. They can choose to attend alone or to invite you and your support.
Adults
You may have been experiencing anxiety or OCD since you were a child or have recently realized it’s becoming a problem. I’m here for you. We can meet in person in my office in Bountiful or through a private and secure virtual platform - telehealth.
It can be hard to choose a therapist, it’s a big step. Hearing the experience of others can help.

I’m Alivia and in addition to working in this field for 25 years (19 as a therapist), I’ve had my own journey with anxiety. While my experience doesn’t mean I know exactly what you’re going through, I know that what I teach works because I use it too. I’m excited to work with you.
