McKenzie Shemwell, LCSW

Psychotherapist
UT
My aim is to cultivate a comfortable environment where individuals can embark on their healing journey feeling supported and secure. With a focus on trauma, anxiety, grief, and navigating significant life changes, I provide a compassionate space for exploration and growth. I am committed to building positive therapeutic relationships with each of my clients and working to ensure they feel understood, safe, and seen. I help individuals identify their strengths and struggles, learn to incorporate behaviors that decrease distressing symptoms, and explore how their interpersonal relationships may be impacting them. My therapeutic approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Somatic-Based Interventions, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I hold a Master’s in Social Work and a Bachelor’s degree from The University of Utah. In my free time, you can find me reading, exploring the outdoors, and spending time with my family, friends, and dog, Blair. I truly look forward to the opportunity to join you on your path toward healing and wellness.
