About Holly

LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) in Utah with eight years of experience. Holly Stone focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, and coping with life changes. She uses practical tools and multiple therapeutic techniques in a collaborative way.

Holly offers clear, everyday strategies clients can use between sessions. She talks through patterns of thought and behavior and teaches skills meant for daily life. Her stated toolbox includes dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness techniques as ways to manage mood, anxiety, and traumatic reactions.

Holly prefers a relaxed, open approach in sessions. She aims to work alongside clients rather than direct them. Conversations include exercises, skill practice, and reflection to build self-awareness and more steady coping.

She has a particular interest in young adults and adolescents facing school or career stress and life transitions. That focus reflects her practice style rather than a promise of specific outcomes. Sessions may include problem-solving around changing environments and support for establishing direction.

Her work also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, dissociation, personality and mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress. The emphasis is on concrete skills and clearer understanding so people can manage symptoms and move forward at their own pace.

To begin, Holly asks people to complete an intake that clarifies current needs and goals. From there she and the client decide which techniques and exercises fit best for day-to-day progress.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. In practice this can mean learning breathing and grounding exercises, distress tolerance steps, and communication techniques to use during high-stress moments.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with practical experiments. It helps people change behaviors that maintain anxiety or low mood by setting small, measurable tasks and reviewing the results together.

Mindfulness techniques train present-moment awareness and steadying attention. These practices are often short exercises used between sessions to reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, symptoms, and preferences. That may mean trying different exercises and adjusting the plan as progress is observed.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to keep regular check-ins, practice skills between appointments, and follow a treatment plan without adding a lengthy commute.
