Meet The Team

Meet Joseph Gleed, LCSW, CCTP, CGP

Co-Founder | Complex Trauma Specialist | Clinical Director

For over 20 years, Joseph Gleed worked with veterans, first responders, and high-stress professionals, helping them navigate trauma recovery, PTSD, chronic pain, and complex mental health challenges.

As an Army veteran and former undercover operator in anti-human trafficking efforts, I bring a deep, personal understanding of high-impact trauma and the toll it takes. My experiences have shaped a grounded, compassionate approach to care—one rooted in trust, safety, and transformation.

I’m a Certified Trauma Specialist, Certified Grief Professional, and EMDR-trained therapist. My work draws from evidence-based practices, including EMDR, somatic therapy, and Trauma-Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (TFACT), to break cycles of pain and support deep, lasting change.

In addition to my clinical work, I teach in the Department of Social Work at Utah Valley University and provide continuing education for mental health professionals nationwide, sharing tools and trauma-informed practices that improve care across the field.

At Renova, we don’t just treat symptoms, we help people heal, rebuild, and thrive. Whether you’re dealing with trauma, grief, or chronic stress, I’m here to walk alongside you as you reclaim your life with purpose and strength.

Meet Mary Garrett, LCMHCA

Mental Health Counselor

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate practicing in Utah since 2024. Prior to her role as a mental health counselor, I spent nearly 13 years working in oncology/biotech where I co-founded, developed, and implemented a mental health support program for patient-facing employees. I earned a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology in 2015 from Saint Martin’s University in Lacey, Washington and a Bachelor’s in Science in Health Promotion/Exercise Science in 2010 from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke.

I offer a holistic and integrative approach to counseling. Some of the interventions I use commonly are mindfulness-based stress reduction, strength-based therapy, Internal Family Systems-informed therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral therapy. My approach to therapy is one of compassion, authenticity, and collaboration. I offer skills to manage thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by the second session and most clients experience an improvement in symptoms in the first month with continued improvement thereafter.

Meet Amaya Hoglund, MSW, CSW

Mental Health Counselor

You’ve done survival. Now it’s time for something different. If you’ve lived through trauma – whether from painful relationships, family dynamics, or experiences that left you feeling unsafe or disconnected – you already know how to endure. But healing isn’t just about getting by, it’s about reclaiming your sense of safety, self, and possibility. I specialize in trauma therapy, EMDR, IFS, ACT and helping you move from surviving to truly living again — while never losing sight of the human in the room.

Therapy with me isn’t about fixing you; it’s about honoring what you’ve already survived and helping you reconnect with parts of yourself that may have gone quiet. I work with teens and adults of all identities and support and advocate for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities, ensuring inclusive and equitable care for all individuals. Many of my clients come to me when they’re tired of holding it together and are ready to start healing, even if they’re not sure where to begin. I bring steadiness, humor, and deep respect into the therapy space. You set the pace—I’ll be with you every step of the way.

Specialties

• Teens and adults
• Relationship, Sexual, and Domestic Violence
• Sexual abuse
• Trauma and PTSD
• Women’s issues
• Anxiety and depression
• Life transitions

Every therapeutic experience is uniquely tailored, drawing on practical and experiential tools to foster healing, growth and resilience.

Having supported clients in both individual and group settings using evidence based approaches, I strive to foster real change. The Journey toward healing isn’t always straightforward, but you don’t have to face it alone.
