Mental Health Conditions We Treat
at Harper Clinic Utah

Our functional medicine approach helps address the root causes of mental health problems and chronic illness.

Trauma

We offer trauma-informed care to treat Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Complex PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), and other trauma syndromes. 

Harper Clinic offers evidence-based therapies approved to treat trauma disorders such as EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Our functional medicine services can help examine underlying chronic illness or inflammation caused by trauma. Holistic interventions like yoga, reiki or massage can help the body and brain feel safe again. 

Studies show that ongoing trauma can actually shorten one’s lifespan. Some common symptoms of trauma may include:

Depression

Depression affects over 20 million adults in the United States. It is characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness and low-mood. It can impact a person’s ability to function—and increase the risk of developing chronic health problems. 

Harper Clinic focuses on healing the gut-brain connection to support patients with depression, as we now know from research, 95% of your serotonin is formed in the gut. Our functional medicine services explore these underlying causes of depression, such as gut inflammation, nutrition, and genetics. 

We treat medication-resistant depression through revolutionary therapies such as TMS and Ketamine Therapy for those who have tried standard treatments and still have no relief. Conventional therapies such as CBT and DBT are also used alongside medication management through licensed psychiatrists to address negative thought patterns and improve sleep and appetite. 

Anxiety

An estimated 31% of adults in the United States struggle with anxiety. Symptoms include:

Our functional medical services can look at your hormones, gut microbiome, and potential toxins in your environment that could contribute to anxiety. 

Licensed therapists in CBT and DBT can help address anxious thinking patterns, while EMDR and ART can reduce trauma-induced anxiety. Our empathetic team of holistic healers can provide healthy stress-reduction techniques such as yoga, Reiki, and massage.

Committed to helping you heal with empathy & compassion

Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism, ADHD, and other learning disabilities can cause problems with communication, sensory perception, and behavior that affect relationships.

Neurodivergency can make it hard to understand what others are thinking, feeling, or experiencing. These disorders can cause repetitive behaviors, special interests, and problems in school. Neurodivergency can look different in everyone and is usually diagnosed at different developmental milestones. 

Harper Clinic provides comprehensive neurodivergent testing to help individuals understand their diagnoses and develop a proper treatment plan for their unique needs.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder or better known as OCD is a mental health disorder that can cause life-long distress without intervention and treatment. It is characterized by “obsessions and compulsions”.

Obsessive symptoms:
Persistent anxiety, intrusive thoughts, fear of dirt, germs or a change in routine.

Compulsive symptoms:
Behaviors to reduce obsessive symptoms: Cleaning, counting, following a strict routine with no flexibility.

Harper Clinic offers evidence-based therapies and medication management approved to treat OCD.

Holistic approaches can help reduce the stress associated with OCD, easing sympthoms and boosting emotional wellness.
