Tim’s educational background started with music at a small college, now known as Brigham Young University-Idaho. As his culture and heritage are from Louisiana, he felt a call to transfer to Southeastern Louisiana University to be a Bachelor of Science in Family Consumer Science and Sociology. 

Tim has always had an interest in the full scope of therapy and he has worked in several medical and mental health business offices, thus furthering his insight into the patient experience; from registration through billing and collection. After graduation, his young family moved to Southern California and he graduated from the University of Phoenix as a Master of Science in Marriage, Family, and Child Therapy. 

 Tim started his career as a marriage and family therapist working with the adult substance abuse population; working with families, couples, and individuals. Tim then moved to Utah in late 2016 and started working with adolescents with substance abuse issues, continuing to work with families. Later, Tim worked with adolescents with behavioral and sexual misconduct issues in the residential setting. Throughout this time, Tim continued to work with families of all shapes and sizes including the LDS and LGBTQ+ populations. 

Tim firmly believes that, “Even though an individual may come in for their own therapy, working with the family and looking at systems of the individual (school, employment, social, etc), can help the individual to recognize that they are just a piece of a larger puzzle.” Although Tim was born in Louisiana (Geaux Tigers!), he now resides in the rural area of Weber County. Tim has joined Anson Family Counseling to use his skills of patient management and billing specialities.

Hi! My name is Emerson Sauer and I am currently studying social work at Utah State University. I hope to one day to become a licensed clinical social worker.

    I grew up in Marsing, Idaho with four wonderful and crazy siblings. Life was always busy at our house! I love being around my family and learning from them.     

I grew up playing all kinds of sports including basketball, volleyball, and doing winter and water sports. I love doing anything active or involving the outdoors!

Hi, I'm Kit! I'm a social worker and psychology major at Utah State University.

 I especially love working with kids and my goal is to be a child therapist, so mentoring is a lot of fun for me. I grew up in Ohio and Florida, but I've been in Logan for about eight years now. 

I love reading, board games, animals, and spending time with my kids. I collect Build-a-Bears and I'm pretty good at Uno, if I do say so myself.  

Hi my name is Taylor! I am currently a student at Utah State University studying social work! 

I grew up on a farm in Idaho and love spending time with my family! I love boating, hiking, and doing anything outdoors! I played basketball, volleyball, and softball growing up and so I love to be active! 

I have worked with kids my whole life and love being able to connect with and meet new people. My goal is to one day own my own practice but until then I have enjoyed being a mentor and helping people in any way I can!
