About the Utah Center for Trauma Recovery
A Higher Standard of Trauma Care in Utah
The Utah Center for Trauma Recovery was founded to meet a critical need in our community — the need for high-quality, specialized trauma therapy that truly helps people heal. While many clinics in Utah claim to provide trauma treatment, few deliver the depth of care or expertise required for lasting recovery.
Too often, trauma therapy is handled by interns or generalists using basic talk therapy approaches. Real trauma work demands advanced training, precision, and deep understanding.
Here, we do trauma therapy differently.
Every clinician on our team is or will be an expert in trauma treatment — trained in EMDR, trauma-focused modalities, and the science of resilience. We serve adults and families who want more than surface-level symptom management. Our goal is to help you experience full, permanent healing — not just temporary relief.
Our clients tend to be motivated professionals, parents, and individuals seeking high-level, results-driven trauma care in a private, safe, and compassionate environment.
Our Philosophy: Healing the Whole Person
At the Utah Center for Trauma Recovery, we look at trauma as a puzzle — and most therapists only have a few of the pieces. They treat symptoms like anxiety, depression, or hypervigilance, but never complete the picture.
We believe that true and lasting recovery requires addressing every layer of a person’s experience:
The Trauma Itself – processing and resolving the painful memories and experiences that created the wounds.
Identity Loss – understanding how trauma changed your sense of self, confidence, and purpose.
Relational Healing – repairing how trauma shaped your ability to connect, trust, and love.
Future Restoration – reigniting your hope, motivation, and ability to imagine the life you want to live.
When these areas are addressed together, complete healing is possible. You won’t just feel “better” — you will become a new version of yourself, free from the limitations of the past.
Our Team and Vision
Currently, our team includes Jordan Meyer, CMHC, and an energy healer who integrates holistic approaches for mind-body alignment. We are actively expanding to include a psychiatrist for medication management and additional trauma specialists, such as experts in couples trauma and family healing.
Every professional who joins the Utah Center for Trauma Recovery will meet the highest standard of expertise, compassion, and trauma-focused training. Our vision is to become Utah’s leading trauma recovery center — combining the best of clinical psychology, neuroscience, and human connection.
Our Environment
Our office is calm, professional, and designed for deep emotional work. We provide a confidential, comfortable setting where clients can feel safe and supported as they process their trauma. We also offer virtual sessions for clients across Utah who prefer the privacy and convenience of online trauma therapy.
Why We Exist
We exist because healing should not be mediocre.
We exist because you deserve expert-level trauma care that helps you find peace, rebuild identity, and restore hope.
And we exist because trauma should never be a life sentence.
At the Utah Center for Trauma Recovery, healing is not just possible — it’s inevitable when you address the whole person: mind, body, and spirit.

Our Founder
Jordan Meyer, CMHC, EMDR Certified Therapist
At just sixteen years old, I was a rising star athlete with college scholarships in hand and a future full of promise ahead. Then, in an instant, everything changed. A devastating accident left me paralyzed from the waist down, shattering not only my body but the identity and future I had worked so hard to build.
The physical recovery was grueling , eighteen months of pushing through pain just to walk again. But the harder battle came afterward: the silent fight to rebuild a sense of purpose, to rediscover who I was, and to face the deep ache of feeling broken beyond repair.
That journey changed everything for me. Over the next decade, I dedicated myself to understanding what allows people not only to survive life’s hardships but to grow from them. I became fascinated by resilience, identity, and the psychology of transformation. I earned a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in addiction from the University of Denver, became a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and went on to achieve advanced certifications in trauma therapy and EMDR.
Today, I am a Ph.D. candidate in Performance Psychology, an author, and a national speaker on trauma recovery, identity, and human potential. My book, Resilient: Using Courage and Hope to Overcome Adversity, shares the same message I live and teach every day that healing and fulfillment are possible for anyone who is willing to do the inner work.
Whether I’m working with high-performing executives facing burnout or individuals healing from complex trauma, my goal is the same: to help people rebuild identity, restore purpose, and reclaim the sense of wholeness that trauma once took away.
Jordan’s philosophy is simple but radical:
“Healing from trauma doesn’t have to be a lifelong battle.”
He believes that everyone deserves three things: [to be loved, to belong, and to feel wanted and accepted ] and that trauma should never take that away. His mission is to help people reclaim those truths and rebuild lives filled with freedom, purpose, and joy.
