AAIM Counseling and Training

Addiction Recovery, Family Counseling and Individual Therapy

AAIM Counseling offers therapy for individuals, couples, and families in the Salt Lake Valley. Our services include therapy for addiction recovery, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and counseling for marriage and family challenges. Through techniques such as motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, resiliency, and others, we seek to empower individuals to be more skilled and capable of dealing with mental and emotional stress.

Sometimes life can present difficulties that we may never have anticipated. As one person’s circumstances and experience can be so different from another, it is crucial to know where one can turn for help in feeling mentally and emotionally independent. In times of heightened stress, family dynamics can become complicated, emotional impulses can become more difficult to control, and compulsive and addictive behavior can ambush an individual. Sometimes a simple change in perception is all that is needed to help one return to his/herself. Other times more advanced tools and techniques may be needed to cope with more extreme challenges.  Our hope is that you feel comfortable in using our resources to help you through whatever difficulties you may be facing.
