About Damon
Damon Bryan is a Utah LMFT with 21 years of professional experience. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, addictions, anger, parenting strains, and related concerns. He works with individuals to set clear goals and reduce the things that get in the way of daily life.
Damon favors practical, straightforward work. He collaborates with clients to define goals and then uses structured techniques to address patterns of thinking and behavior that feed anger, low mood, or conflict. Sessions move between talking, skill practice, and looking at past events that continue to affect feelings today.
He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. Damon also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and mindfulness approaches when trauma or painful memories are part of the problem. These methods are used to reduce intense reactions and make emotions easier to manage.
Damon trained as a Marriage and Family Therapist and has substantial experience with relationship-focused work, though he also works with individuals. He emphasizes the relationship between client and therapist and treats that alliance as part of the work to change patterns of anger and conflict.
If someone wants to begin, he asks them to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Costs vary by location and sessions are provided through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How his approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that feed anger and anxiety. Online sessions can include skill teaching, homework assignments, and short in-session practice to build new habits.DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. In remote sessions this often looks like learning concrete skills, rehearsing responses, and checking progress between appointments.
EMDR is used when past traumatic memories continue to trigger strong reactions. When appropriate, EMDR techniques can be adapted to a remote setting to process memories and reduce their intensity, with careful pacing and therapist guidance.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and responses to early sessions, then adjust methods if something is not working. Together they decide which techniques to prioritize based on the issues presented.
Practical benefits of online care include fitting sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. If you need shorter check-ins or sessions that better fit work breaks, ask about those options when you schedule. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking so the arrangement matches your routine.
