Emily Hawkins, LCSW C-IAYT

Salt City Wellness was born out of my extensive experience as a therapist, social worker non-profit clinical director and educator. With over 15 years of experience in working with mental health and recovery, I am passionate about bringing the tools for health and wellness to everyone, to help individuals work from their strengths and build lives of consistent wellness and joy. Born and raised in Salt Lake City, I grew up  hiking, fishing and exploring the Wasatch mountains and streams. This is where i developed my deep love for and awareness of the healing capacity of nature and our own bodies.  


Among my areas of expertise are working with the impact of trauma and childhood experiences, psychology of women, sexual violence, oppression and relationship dynamics. Other areas of interest include the impact of trauma and other experiences on the brain and body, mindfulness based psychotherapy, integration of the mind-body experience and spirituality based work.
   
I am an empowerment and strengths based therapist. My therapeutic approach combines present moment focused therapy and evidenced based therapies to assist clients to effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing.
