Skidmore Jon Psy.D. 568 East 1400 South, Orem, UT 84097

"I saw Dr. Skidmore at Utah Valley Psychology. For therapy I just wanted to have a better mindset about exercising. I was transitioning out of a sport and just wanted someone to talk to about it. About 3 months into therapy we finally started discussing exercise. He laughed at me when I opened up to him about my goals that I had had. Most of the time spent in our sessions was him talking about him own problems and/or him teaching classes at BYU. During a session, he wanted me to sing to him. Yep, that's right, sing to him. I said no but he kept pressuring and nagging me too. It was such a power struggle and he kept insisting. When I kept saying no he told me I had too rigid of thinking and that'd I'd never change. He never explained what singing had to do with me processing or working through my relationship with exercising. Overall, not a great experience. Definitely not a safe environment or a therapist that seemed to care about a patient's well-being or knew where they were at."

"Very insightful, never pushes too hard but gets you to discover the roots to your problems. Very friendly and easy to talk to."

"Doc. Skidmore made me fell comfortable and easy to talk to. Even though my time with him was short due to distance from my house, I was able to learn some great strategies with him. Would recommend him to my family and friends."
