About Lindsay
Lindsay Metli is a licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of experience helping people who feel stuck or overwhelmed. She helps clients set clear, doable goals and takes a practical, whole-person view when working toward better daily functioning. Her style aims to be down-to-earth and approachable so people can talk honestly about what’s hard for them.
She draws on a mix of evidence-based methods to match what each person needs.
Background and approach
That can include strategies to manage anxiety and depression, tools for coping with trauma, and ways to address relationship or parenting stress. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings as well as steps that shift patterns over time. Lindsay’s background includes work in community mental health, independent practice, and psychiatric hospitals.
She also spent years in child welfare and volunteered in correctional settings running life-skills and therapy groups. Those roles shaped her practical problem-solving approach and her comfort working with complicated life situations. Clients may find help with loss, addiction, career strain, self-esteem, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and recovery from abuse.
She often addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family challenges, and communication or control issues. Her experience covers both short-term coping and longer-term change. She practices in Utah and holds a Utah Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Wyoming Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential.
Lindsay balances clinical work with family life in a blended household and understands the strain of juggling multiple responsibilities.

Online support
Approaches and how they work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the client’s goals and experience, giving space for people to set their own direction while the therapist listens and reflects. It helps when someone needs validation and a respectful partner to guide self-discovery.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical strategies to change them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and habit change because sessions include clear skills to practice between meetings.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. It can help people who struggle with intense emotions or relationship conflict by building steady coping tools.
Choosing a method is collaborative. Lindsay will work with each person to try approaches that match their goals and comfort level, adjusting over time as needs change. Finding the right fit is part of the process and often happens in the first few sessions.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers a flexible way to get support. Video works well for interactive skill practice and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text are helpful for brief updates, ongoing coaching, or when messaging fits into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and use therapy tools in real life.
