Jania Sommers

I welcome individuals navigating depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I offer affirming support for those exploring sexuality and gender identity. My approach is strengths-based, integrating compassion, mindfulness, and a feminist, multicultural lens. I encourage focused, positive work to foster authenticity and self-discovery. I've worked extensively with gay, lesbian, and transgender individuals, providing an open, inclusive space. I believe everyone has a creative spark that can inspire growth, connection, and well-being. I appreciate the diversity in human experience through gender identity, sexual expression and creative work. Exploring internal feelings and outward behavior through mindfulness and compassion practices, combined with a healthy therapeutic relationship, opens up the possibilities of health and wellness. Appointments are available early on weekdays, selected weekday evenings and on Sunday. I accept private pay, some insurance and offer sliding scale on an individual basis. I am licensed in Utah, California, New Mexico and Idaho. I am a member of the LGBTQ Affirmative Therapists Guild in Utah, California Society of Clinical Social Workers and WPATH.
