About Sean
Sean Horsley is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 23 years of clinical experience supporting people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, relationship and family difficulties, addiction, trauma, and issues with intimacy and self-esteem.
Background and approach
He draws on a broad set of evidence-based strategies to help clients build practical skills for coping with life changes, managing chronic pain or illness, and addressing complex emotional challenges like guilt, isolation, or compassion fatigue.
Working in Utah and available to international clients, he offers individual, couple, and family sessions grounded in proven techniques such as cognitive behavioral approaches, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness practices. His work also covers areas like caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, communication problems, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and multicultural concerns.
Sean combines skill-building with collaborative problem solving so clients can pursue meaningful goals and improved daily functioning. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and provided through flexible online formats.
He aims to tailor treatment to each person’s needs while keeping the focus practical and results-oriented, helping clients develop tools they can use outside of therapy to navigate ongoing life challenges.
Practical therapeutic approaches for online care
Sean often uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices to help clients recognize and change unhelpful thinking patterns while cultivating present-moment awareness. CBT is effective for addressing anxiety, depression, and many stress-related problems by teaching concrete skills for restructuring thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness therapy supports emotional regulation and stress reduction through exercises that increase awareness and reduce reactivity.He also integrates motivational interviewing when clients need to build motivation for change or weigh options during life transitions. This approach focuses on clarifying values and enhancing a person’s own reasons for change through collaborative conversation. Throughout the work he aims to partner with clients to determine which methods fit their goals and preferences rather than imposing a single model.
Online sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varying schedules and needs. These formats make it possible to access consistent care from Utah or internationally and to use therapeutic tools between sessions with formats that suit different communication styles.
