Hi, there! I’m Caidy—a compassionate & down-to-earth therapist based in Salt Lake City-Taylorsville, UT. I specialize in faith transitions, depression, trauma and am LGBTQIA+ affirming.

My Specialties
Where I do my best work
“Working with Caidy changed my life. I felt seen, understood, and never judged. She helped me through my faith transition and past trauma with incredible care.
”
01 crisis of faith
My faith is such a core part of who I am. So when I started to question it, it feels like I was unraveling at the seams. I never expected to question the beliefs that once felt like home, but now everything feels uncertain and heavy. It’s lonely, confusing, and hard to talk about—especially when people around me don’t understand.
02 sadness & depression
Most days, I feel like I’m just going through the motions—tired, unmotivated, and disconnected from who I used to be. It’s hard to explain to anyone, and even harder to believe it could feel different. I need help to feel like myself again—or maybe find a new version I actually recognize.
04 lgbtqia+ exploration
I’ve been questioning parts of who I am, and it’s bringing up a mix of fear, relief, and confusion. I want to feel accepted and whole—but I’m scared of what this might mean for my relationships, my faith, or how I see myself. I need someone to help me explore with compassion, remind me that who I am is not wrong, and hold space while I figure out what feels true.
03 trauma
Some days, I feel like I’m still stuck in survival mode. I can’t always explain why I’m anxious, shut down, or on edge—it just feels like my body never got the message that things are safe now. I’ve learned to hold it all together, but underneath, I’m exhausted. It’s hard to trust people. It’s hard to trust myself. I need someone who can help me make sense of what I’ve gone through.

service fees & insurance
I’ve chosen to offer self-pay therapy so we can focus on what truly matters in your healing—not what’s approved by insurance. This allows for more privacy, flexibility, and individualized care without diagnoses or session limits. Many clients also prefer the freedom and confidentiality that self-pay provides.
60 minute intake: $190
50 minute session: $170
While I’m a self-pay provider, I partner with Mentaya to help you get reimbursed if you have out-of-network benefits. Mentaya can check your coverage, file claims on your behalf, and simplify the reimbursement process—saving you time and money. Many clients receive 50–80% back, depending on their plan.
restore the joy you’ve been missing.
Balance is not about finding the perfect midpoint, but about continually adjusting as you navigate the currents of life.
I look forward to seeing you soon.
You deserve support and compassion.
