About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Utah with over 5 years working in a therapeutic capacity. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD.

My counseling style is non-judgmental and self determination focused. I believe that people change when they are ready and they make decisions the best way they know how. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, humanistic, and psychodynamic approaches. Your sessions are your time, I will ensure it is spent in a way you find beneficial and your goals wills be yours to accomplish in your time.

Most issues in relationships are due to misunderstandings. When two people really love each other it is not likely they are intentionally doing harm. Change usually happens when both people decide to take a different approach to communicating their feelings.

Changes is never an easy task but the first step is making the choice to engage. Everyday you show up is progress in the right direction. If you are ready to take that step I will do everything I capable of to help you move forward towards the life, dreams and goals, you desire.

I look forward meeting you!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Irene Hopkins . We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Irene is direct and to the point…something I appreciate when I’m paying someone for their time.
She asks intricate questions that I normally wouldn’t think of…and she understands the bigger picture well enough that she’s able to help us get out of our own heads.
She has great insight for couple intimacy issues and is probably the best therapist we’ve seen as a couple for this issue

We were hesitant to seek therapy at first, but we are very happy to have Irene as our councillor. Her professional guidance has put us back on track towards better communication as a couple.

Written on Jul 08, 2021 after therapy with Irene for 3 months on issues concerning relationship

Irene has been able to verbalize and explain misunderstood issues that we have been having as a couple for years. She has a lot of resources beyond our sessions and is available when/if we have questions. She is supportive, but also expects us to participate.
