A path forward.

We partner with you to replace uncertainty with understanding, providing a practical roadmap and collaborative support so you feel understood, hopeful, and confidently equipped for the journey ahead.


Our journey started with a commitment.

Over twenty years ago, Tracine Smoot (our founder and mentor) saw a gap in psychological care. Families were often handed complex reports filled with scores and jargon, but no clear understanding of what to do next. An evaluation, she believed, shouldn't be the end of the road—it should be the beginning of a clear, actionable path forward.

Wasatch Learning & Wellness has always aimed to provide a different experience. It was built to be a place where rigorous, science-based evaluations produce not just accurate insights, but a practical roadmap for parents, schools, and therapists to follow – to step forward into real, meaningful change.

"My passion is making the insights from an evaluation come to life. True change happens in a warm, collaborative environment where people are seen and understood. We built our practice to deliver compassionate, evidence-based therapy and support.“ 

Kara Peterson, PhD

"We are passionate about diagnostic accuracy because we’ve seen the power it has to change a person's trajectory. When a family truly understands the 'why' behind the challenges, they are empowered to find the right solutions.

Nicole Stewart, PhD

From rigorous evaluations to integrated care.

What began with a focus on best-in-class evaluations naturally grew into a fully integrated clinical practice. We recognized that the strongest outcomes occurred when evaluators, families, schools, and therapists worked in close collaboration. Today, our integrated model ensures that assessment findings sharpen treatment and therapy brings insight to life, all under one roof.
