Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Utah

Hi, I’m Sheena Gaddis, LCSW, and I’m so glad you’re here. I earned my Master of Social Work from Fayetteville State University and have over 15 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges. I believe therapy should feel like a safe, welcoming space where you can be heard without judgment. I use approaches such as CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help you build coping skills, gain clarity, and create meaningful change at your own pace.

First and foremost, I enjoy meeting people, getting to know the way they think, making people comfortable, and then seeing how I can help or support. I enjoy seeing people grow through their challenges and find progress in their goals. I've spent much of my career working in psychiatric hospitals managing crisis, doing family and adolescent counseling, and have built several addiction counseling programs. I and am currently working as the Clinical Director for an addiction medical clinic, but looking at building up my private practice for more independence. I'm always up to learning something new as I meet new people, and am looking forward to seeing how I can help.

Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist and am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). If you struggle with insomnia, you are not alone - up to 70 million Americans have problems with sleep. I'm here to tell you that you don't have to "just live with it" for the rest of your life. With CBT-I, you can learn how to respond to insomnia in a more workable way and take back control of your life. I love to help people sleep better and am currently accepting new clients!

I am an LCSW. I am a trauma and neurodivergent-informed therapist that specializes in EMDR and DBT. I am good at building relationships with clients and helping them feel safe. I use humor and direct communication to overcome barriers with clients. I use things like art, culture, media, etc. to reach clients where they are at. I am non-binary and work on LGBT issues with clients. I am also a person of color, so I work with cultural trauma.

Are you carrying trauma, anxiety, depression, or a difficult transition and wondering how to feel like yourself again? I specialize in trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I work with adults in Utah, including skeptical clients. My style is direct, compassionate, and focused on helping you feel understood and move forward.

I am on your side, and I pay attention to whether our work is helping. I offer clear feedback without judgment and stay present with difficult feelings. You will never be too much for me. We can make room for heaviness, laughter, and a full life outside therapy.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness. My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and centered on creating a safe space where you can be heard, understood, and supported.

I work with individuals who are ambitious and capable but often feel stretched thin trying to keep up with life, goals, and expectations. Many of my clients are professionals or working adults navigating stress, burnout, perfectionism, or self-doubt. I also enjoy working with teenage girls (13+). Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back, set realistic boundaries for your time and energy, manage stress, and find more peace in the present while still working toward meaningful goals for your future.

I’m EMDR-trained and IFS-informed. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Boise State University in 2021.

I believe in showing up as a real person in the therapy room. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable being fully themselves in our sessions, whether they’re navigating anxiety, faith transitions, self-worth, or the messy in-betweens of being human. My own journey (from growing up in a high-control religious group to finding meaning and freedom in nature and music festivals) has shaped my understanding of how culture and systems impact our stories.
