About Connie

Connie Winn is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, family strains, parenting struggles, low self-esteem, career questions, and major life changes. She speaks plainly and listens carefully to understand what matters most to each person. Her approach centers on practical steps and steady support rather than jargon.

Connie practices in Utah and works in English. Connie brings eight years of professional experience to her work as an LCSW.

Background and approach

She draws on several evidence-based methods to tailor sessions to individual needs. Sessions often focus on building skills for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and making clearer choices when life feels overwhelming. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to reframe unhelpful thoughts and from acceptance and commitment therapy to clarify values and guide action.

She also integrates attachment-informed ideas to understand relationship patterns and dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. In session, conversations are grounded and straightforward, with attention to what a person can try between meetings. The practice emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies that fit a person’s daily life.

Connie aims to make therapy feel approachable and useful. Parents and caregivers looking for support with family or parenting concerns will find a focus on communication, boundaries, and problem-solving. Prospective clients can expect clear next steps, gentle challenge when needed, and a steady focus on what helps in the moment.

To begin, new clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions. Therapy is offered through subscription sessions that can be canceled at any time, and sessions are provided via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit family life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are strong. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where choices feel stuck.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical experiments to change patterns. It is often used for panic, social anxiety, low mood, and stress management.

Connie treats the choice of approach as a shared decision. She will talk with clients about what feels most useful, try out methods, and adjust based on progress and preferences. Finding the right fit is part of the work together rather than a one-time decision.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families and people with limited travel time. Sessions can happen by video call or phone when a conversation is needed, or through live chat and text-based messaging for brief check-ins and ongoing support. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, school, and family demands while keeping therapy consistent and practical.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
