Dr. Walsh is a psychologist practicing in Utah with more than 32 years of experience. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
She also teaches mindfulness practices that build awareness and reduce reactivity.
Background and approach
These approaches are used with a wide range of concerns including mood disorders, panic attacks, grief, trauma, and relationship struggles. Dr. Walsh has worked across many life stages and brings experience with complex mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and with neuropsychological issues related to brain injury.
She supports people managing career pressure, parenting strains, financial stress, and the exhaustion that comes from caregiving or compassion fatigue. In sessions she focuses on clear goals and practical skills you can use between meetings. Expect straightforward tools for coping with worry, improving sleep, managing mood swings, and repairing communication problems.
She also addresses self-esteem, guilt and shame, and feelings of emptiness that can follow major life changes. Her training includes a Doctor of Psychology degree and additional study in clinical psychopharmacology and neuropsychological assessment. Outside of work she enjoys cooking, gardening, yoga, kickboxing, and meditation, which she sometimes brings into mindfulness exercises during therapy.
CBT and Mindfulness for Online Care
Dr. Walsh uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is practical and goal oriented, and it is often used for anxiety, panic attacks, mood problems, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation; it can help with rumination, sleep disruption, and coping with strong feelings.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt techniques so they fit the client's life. That collaborative process means strategies can change over time as needs shift.
Online therapy offers several practical options: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, access sessions from different locations in Utah, and pick the communication style that helps someone stay consistent with treatment.
