Bear Haslam

I was raised in the beautiful valley of Hurricane, where I developed a deep appreciation for personal growth and human connection. From a young age, I found myself drawn to the process of helping others improve their lives—an interest shaped by the challenges and refining experiences I’ve encountered throughout different life stages.

My journey into the mental health field began in residential treatment, working directly with at-risk youth. That experience solidified my passion for supporting others through change and healing. I went on to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Human Communication from Dixie State University, followed by a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Northcentral University, a COAMFTE-accredited program.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working extensively with families and adolescent boys facing a range of struggles, including addiction, depression, anxiety, and relational challenges. I approach therapy from a holistic perspective—believing that mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual wellness are all essential components of a meaningful and balanced life.

As a clinician, I believe that personal growth is a continuous process. I am committed to doing my own inner work and fostering healthy relationships in my own life. I strive to live what I teach, knowing that I can only guide others as far as I’ve come myself. My greatest joys come from living intentionally with my wife and three children, and I embrace life’s challenges as opportunities to grow stronger and more connected.
