Kaelie Wagner, LMFTA

Hello! My name is Kaelie Lemmon Wagner, and I am originally from Bluebell, Utah. I received a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Utah Valley University and am currently working on my PhD from Brigham Young University. 

I deeply believe in the power of connection, whether that connection is to oneself, others, or spirituality. I believe that connections are best created and maintained through understanding, accepting, and even embracing the wide array of emotions we experience as humans. Our physical and emotional selves are very much connected and intertwined, which I account for in session. With a background in physiological factors in my work as a Certified Nurse Assistant (CAN) and Emergency Medical Technician EMT), I have seen firsthand the impact of trauma and physical factors on mental health and subsequent relationships.

I also love working with children and tend to see a lot of child/family clients. I believe that learning how to regulate emotion at an early age sets kiddos up for success, in both relationships now and in the future. I have experience working with autism, behavioral issues, oppositional defiant disorder, and trauma in children. 

I am continually humbled by the resiliency, humility, and strength that I witness from clients. Through these experiences, I have learned to recognize and use the inherent strengths that you have, to accomplish the change/support you are seeking. I believe that you are the expert of your own experience and strength, and that sometimes you just need help seeing that. I consider it an honor to work with/learn from you. 

When I am not working with/learning from clients, I enjoy spending time with my husband, babies and extended family, spending time outdoors, watching movies, playing games, eating delicious food and if possible, sneaking in a nap. ;)
