About Lindsay
Lindsay Metli is a licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of practice. She guides people toward clear, manageable goals that improve day-to-day well-being. Lindsay aims to create a calm, down-to-earth space where clients can talk about what matters most.
She takes a whole-person view that looks at mind, body, and spirit. That perspective is paired with evidence-informed methods, chosen to fit each person's needs. Sessions focus on practical steps, new skills, and small changes that add up over time.
Lindsay trained at the University of Utah, earning a Bachelor of Science in psychology and a Master of Social Work. She holds LCSW licenses in Utah and Wyoming and brings experience from community mental health, private practice, and psychiatric hospitals.

Her clinical interests include trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, addictions, and adjusting to major life changes. Additional areas she addresses include attachment and abandonment issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, grief, ADHD, body image, and domestic violence. She often combines mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral tools, and skills-based approaches to meet specific needs.
Lindsay also balances family life with a blended household and a young child, and she understands the challenges of juggling responsibilities. She emphasizes collaboration and steady progress, helping people build routines and skills that fit their real lives.
Using Mindfulness and Skills-Based Approaches Online
Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and physical sensations without judgment and can reduce reactivity to stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting, respectful relationship so people feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with major life changes.
Deciding which approach fits best is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they may try one approach or combine methods to match changing needs over time.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people practice skills in the contexts where they live and work, and make it simpler to maintain continuity of care during life transitions.
These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
