Online Therapy in Salt Lake City, Utah

Roots Counseling provides online therapy to people across Salt Lake City and the surrounding valley, with licensed Utah clinicians you meet by secure video. You get thoughtful, specialized care without a commute or a waitlist tied to one neighborhood. In a city this size, telehealth simply opens up more choice about who you work with and when.

Telehealth therapy for Salt Lake City residents

Salt Lake moves at a metro pace. Between I-15 traffic, downtown work schedules, and the pull of the mountains on the weekend, a standing appointment across town can be tough to keep. Online sessions let you meet from your apartment, your office at lunch, or home in the suburbs without losing an hour to driving and parking.

The valley also has a wide range of needs and a lot of providers, which can make finding the right fit feel overwhelming rather than easy. Working with Roots by telehealth gives you access to specific approaches like DBT and Internal Family Systems, matched to what you actually want to work on, rather than whoever has the soonest downtown opening.

How telehealth works at Roots

Scheduling happens by phone or online. Before your appointment, you receive a secure link. You join from any device with a camera and microphone, in a private spot where you can talk openly. Sessions are the same length and follow the same structure as in-person care, all on a HIPAA-compliant platform.

What you can address by telehealth

Most Roots services are offered online, including individual counseling, couples counseling, DBT and IFS skills, mindfulness-based work, and ESA letter consultations. We will help you find a clinician suited to your goals.
