Client Testimonials:
“Kendee is absolutely wonderful. She makes clear goals and plans and she truly cares about getting you to a point where you reach your own personal goals and solve your problems through therapy.
She is very professional, but also very warm and kind and I truly feel she cares. I look forward to seeing her and I’ve always felt like we’re working together, not that she’s just working on me.
After many attempts to find a therapist, I’m so happy with Kendee and couldn’t recommend her more highly. Her style is very concise and clear, but it’s not overbearing. She has a way of guiding you to a realization or breakthrough where you don’t feel like you were pushed to any specific outcome. It’s always an amazing experience when I see her.
Therapy Utah is in a gorgeous facility and is very clean and neat. Everyone is inviting and welcoming. It feels like a very safe space. Their communication is great and they have options for all ways you prefer to communicate or receive therapy. The Zoom meetings were a huge help during Covid and when I traveled.”

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.
