Client Testimonials:
“When I started therapy I never anticipated finding such wisdom and unconditional love in one person. I tried for years, even decades—to heal. My peeps felt so unyielding and carrying them was so heavy. You helped me find out that they were trying to carry me, give me love and wanting me to heal. Thank you for helping me find myself—so many parts of me that I had continually pushed down—and to learn to listen to and love these dear peeps so much better. You help me walk with courage and hope. You are the best”
~ Cynthia
“Kathy was the most integral piece of my healing during addiction, betrayal trauma and divorce from my spouse. I went through all the textbook stages of grief, and she met me with grace at each one. I shifted from a victim mindset, sleepless nights, desperation and severe depression to radical responsibility and courage as her effective tools empowered me. I now live a healthy, balanced and successful life as I help others in similar transitions. I couldn’t have made it without her. I still reflect on her tools and the meticulous notes I kept to stay grounded. Forever grateful for Kathy and her skills, time, and hope.”

“Kathy helped me navigate one of the darkest times of my life. She didn’t always tell me what I wanted to hear, but taught me what I needed to know to progress. I’ll be forever grateful.”

The History of Therapy Utah
Brannon Patrick and Kathy Kinghorn began their therapy careers in private practice over a decade ago, working with clients seeking help with sex addiction and betrayal. Since then, they’ve received the highest levels of training in both group and individual therapy work.
Five years ago, Brannon and Kathy started Therapy Utah to provide a deeper level of support for individuals, couples, families, and children seeking help with various challenges. They also developed the LIFT Program to create a unique and thriving community of support for people suffering from sex addiction and betrayal trauma.
Brannon also hosts the Real Talk Recovery podcast with his brother Tyler Patrick (the wandering therapist), providing accessible insights into relationships affected by addiction and betrayal. Before that, he hosted a similar podcast called The Betrayed, the Addicted, and The Expert for over four years, reaching listeners all over the web.
Kathy has a passion for educating professionals on sexual addiction and betrayal trauma. She has spoken at national and local conferences, and is a part-time instructor at The University of Kentucky. She’s also a field instructor for The University of Utah, and is on the advisory board for Sundance Academy. Kathy is also the author of The Long Road to Recovery, and hosts The Three Minute Therapist podcast. Kathy enjoys speaking engagements, and is available for events upon request.
Today, Therapy Utah provides in-person and online therapy services for a diverse range of clients in specially-designed facilities. We hire experienced, licensed therapists who specialize in specific modalities, provide detailed in-house training, and focus on matching every client with a therapist who will support their goals and needs effectively.
