Lindsay Metli, LCSW

Lindsay Metli is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Utah and Wyoming with 11 years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, addiction, and parenting challenges. She also addresses attention differences, grief, career strain, and intimacy-related issues.

Lindsay uses straightforward, practical methods to help people set and work toward reachable goals. She blends client-centered work with evidence-based strategies so sessions tend to focus on concrete steps. Expect conversations that link daily routines, relationships, and emotional patterns to small changes you can try between meetings.

Her background includes work in community mental health, private practice, and psychiatric hospitals. She has experience running groups and supporting people after trauma and major life changes. Earlier roles included child welfare advocacy and teaching life skills in correctional settings.

In session she may draw on cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thinking and behavior. Dialectical behavior tools can be used to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Mindfulness practices are offered as simple ways to notice thoughts and reduce reactivity.

Lindsay describes family life as part of her lived experience and understands the practical demands of parenting and managing a household while a partner is deployed. That perspective informs how she helps clients balance responsibilities with emotional needs.

People who come to her often want clear tools and straightforward support for coping, rebuilding after loss or violence, managing mood changes, or reducing substance use. If you want a direct, practical approach to these concerns she may be a fit.
