Find the Right Therapist for You
At Salty Counseling, we believe therapy should meet you where you are. Whether you're looking for specialized trauma treatment or a more affordable place to begin, we'll help you explore your options.
Hi, I'm Amber LeDoux (she/her), a Master's-level clinical intern at Salty Counseling with a background in psychology and trauma-informed yoga. I'm passionate about helping people understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and bodies, especially when anxiety, perfectionism, intrusive thoughts, or past experiences leave them feeling stuck.
What if you didn't have to fight every uncomfortable thought or feeling to move forward?
I'm especially interested in helping people who feel caught between wanting to change and being afraid of getting it wrong. Whether you're constantly second-guessing yourself, feeling pressured to get everything just right, or struggling to quiet your mind, we can explore those patterns with curiosity rather than judgment.
Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and mind-body approaches, I offer a compassionate, collaborative space to explore your experiences, reconnect with your values, and begin making meaningful changes.
Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, self-worth, or life's challenges, you deserve support that meets you where you are.
Individual therapy: $100 per session. Sliding-scale options available.
Hi, I’m Q Porschatis (she/her), founder and clinical director of Salty Counseling, a trauma specialty clinic in Salt Lake City. I'm an EMDRIA Certified Therapist specializing in trauma treatment, and an EMDR Consultant-in-Training (CIT) who integrates nervous-system-informed approaches and Ego State work to support lasting healing.
You understand your patterns. So why is it still so hard to change them?
Most clients who work with me aren’t new to self-awareness. They’ve read the books, reflected deeply, and pushed themselves to grow personally and professionally. But despite that insight and hard work, they still feel stuck in patterns they can’t think their way out of — anxiety that won’t turn off, criticism and self-doubt that keep resurfacing, or the feeling that they're not fully enjoying their lives.
My approach goes beyond helping you understand your patterns. Together, we identify what's keeping them in place, process the experiences that shaped them, and work with the emotional and physical responses that keep those patterns going. Using EMDR and nervous-system-informed approaches, we focus on helping you experience change, not just understand why you're struggling.
You've already done a lot of work to understand yourself. Now let's work on helping you feel the difference.
Individual therapy: $225 per session.
