Online Therapy and Counseling
Support That Meets You Where You Are
At Sunrise Marriage & Family Therapy, we provide in-person and online therapy for individuals, couples, and families. Currently, our online services are available throughout Utah and Colorado, while in-person sessions are available in Utah. Our secure virtual sessions allow you to receive professional care and guidance from the comfort of your home — without sacrificing connection, quality, or progress. Whether you’re managing stress, repairing a relationship, or navigating ADHD, depression, or anxiety, our online counseling services are structured to help you find clarity and create lasting change.
What Is Online Therapy?
Online therapy (sometimes called virtual therapy or internet-based therapy) provides the same evidence-based support as in-person sessions, conducted through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You will meet with a licensed therapist face-to-face via video call to explore challenges, gain insight, and develop tools for emotional regulation, effective communication, and repairing relationships.
Our online therapy services are tailored to your needs — whether you are seeking individual therapy, couples therapy, or family counseling.
Benefits of Online Therapy
Online therapy offers flexibility without compromising therapeutic depth. Benefits include:
Accessibility — Connect with a licensed therapist anywhere in Utah or Colorado.
Consistency — Keep your routine, even when life feels busy or unpredictable.
Comfort — Engage in therapy from a space where you feel safe and grounded.
Privacy — Secure, confidential sessions designed to protect your well-being.
Continuity — Stay connected even during travel, health concerns, or relocation.
For many clients, virtual therapy serves as a bridge to stability, supporting long-term growth through practical, insight-driven care.
Effectiveness of Online Therapy
We believe that online therapy can be just as effective as in-person counseling for most emotional and relational concerns. Our therapists use structured, evidence-based interventions — including the Gottman Method, CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic therapy — to promote measurable progress and self-awareness.
Clients often tell us that online sessions feel surprisingly personal and productive, helping them stay consistent and focused on change.

Break cycles of defensiveness and misunderstanding.
Rebuild emotional connection and intimacy.
Develop healthy conflict resolution skills.
Strengthen commitment and teamwork.
Our online marriage and family counseling programs make it easier to prioritize your relationship, even with busy schedules or distance between you and your partner.
Online Depression Therapy
Depression can make even simple tasks feel impossible. Through online therapy for depression, we will focus on identifying thought patterns, reshaping emotional responses, and rebuilding daily structure. Using CBT and mindfulness-based tools, you will gain insight and strategies to restore motivation and self-compassion — from wherever you are.
Online Anxiety Therapy
Online therapy for anxiety helps you regain control over worry, panic, or tension through structured coping skills, grounding techniques, and realistic thinking patterns. Our therapists integrate DBT and CBT to reduce overthinking and increase calm, clarity, and confidence in daily life.
Online ADHD Therapy
ADHD does not just impact focus — it affects communication, relationships, and self-esteem. Our online ADHD therapy combines psychoeducation, executive-function tools, and relational support to help you manage overwhelm, stay organized, and follow through on goals. You will learn how to turn insight into consistent action, both personally and professionally.
Online Autism Therapy
For individuals or families navigating autism, online therapy can create a comfortable and structured space to build emotional understanding, communication, and connection. Our therapists use strength-based, neurodiversity-affirming approaches to help clients and families reduce stress and enhance self-awareness, acceptance, and daily functioning.
