About Sean
Sean Horsley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Utah with 23 years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, grief, depression, parenting strain, relationship and family concerns, addiction, trauma and related issues. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and he accepts international clients.
Sean focuses on practical skills that help people manage everyday pressures. He uses straightforward tools to address sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD challenges and coping with life changes. He also helps with blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and chronic illness or pain adjustments.
His approach mixes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness techniques and Motivational Interviewing. That combination is used to teach coping strategies, reduce unhelpful thinking patterns, and build clearer communication. Sessions tend to emphasize brief skills practice and concrete steps people can try between meetings.
Sean also uses solution-focused work to set small, realistic goals. He helps clients break problems into manageable parts and track progress. This can be useful for issues like addiction recovery, separation and divorce transitions, or rebuilding intimacy after conflict.
In practice he keeps things direct and practical. New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence. Online sessions can include brief exercises and homework to change thinking patterns that worsen anxiety, depression, or sleep problems.DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills. In an online setting this looks like practicing concrete coping skills, tracking reactions, and learning step-by-step methods to handle intense feelings or relationship conflict.
Mindfulness therapy brings attention to the present moment through simple practices. It can help reduce rumination, manage stress, and improve focus for people juggling parenting and caregiving demands.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That process usually involves checking results and shifting focus toward clearer, smaller goals.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into busy days - it can make attending sessions easier, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about language options and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
