About Norma
Norma Peck brings a client-centered approach grounded in practical, evidence-informed methods. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside solution-focused and mindfulness practices to help people address stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction.
Background and approach
Norma emphasizes goal-setting and collaborative homework so clients can practice new skills between sessions and track meaningful progress.
With 18 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and three decades in social work overall, Norma has worked extensively with adults across a wide range of concerns including grief, anger, relationship and family issues, parenting challenges, sleeping problems, career transitions, and bipolar disorder.
She has long-standing experience supporting parents of children with disabilities or developmental delays, addressing associated anxiety, guilt, and grief when relevant. Norma adapts her style to each person’s needs, meeting clients where they are and tailoring interventions to current and past difficulties.
Based in Utah, she aims to create a focused, listening-oriented space where practical problem solving and compassionate support come together to help clients navigate life changes and build sustainable skills.
Practical approaches for online therapy and coping skills
Norma often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and build concrete strategies for changing behaviors and mood. CBT is useful for concerns like anxiety, depression, sleeping difficulties, and coping with life transitions because it emphasizes skill practice and measurable progress.She also draws on client-centered and mindfulness approaches that prioritize a respectful, listening-focused relationship and present-moment awareness. Client-centered work supports exploration of personal goals and values, while mindfulness practices teach attention and stress-management skills that can reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning.
Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative; the therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust the plan over time. Norma emphasizes goal-setting and homework as part of that process so clients can apply new tools between sessions.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care, try different formats, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with a licensed professional located in Utah.
