About Dr. Paul Callister
Paul Callister, PhD, CGP, Group Psychotherapist serving Utah
My name is Paul Callister, and I founded the Utah Group Therapy Center because I've seen firsthand how group therapy can be life-changing. I believe group work helps people get to know themselves deeply and learn to connect with others in ways that promote growth, healing, and lasting satisfaction.
Experience & Training
With over 10 years of experience as a group psychotherapist, I'm a Certified Group Psychotherapist with a PhD and Master's degree in mental health counseling. I am currently pursuing advanced group training in modern group analysis at the Center for Group Studies in New York City.
My Approach
I know the idea of sharing personal struggles with strangers can feel intimidating - that's completely normal. In my groups, we work at your pace to create a safe space where you can take the risks that lead to real change. My approach focuses on helping you understand your patterns in relationships and practice new ways of connecting, both within the group and in your outside life.
