Carolshene Powell, LCMHC

Carolshene Powell, LCMHC, is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in Utah with 20 years of experience supporting people through difficult seasons and meaningful life transitions. Her work is grounded in evidence-based care and a deep respect for each person’s lived experience, with an emphasis on helping clients build practical skills, strengthen resilience, and move toward lasting change.

Over the course of her career, Carolshene has developed a multifaceted practice that draws from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). These methods can be especially helpful for clients working through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and self-esteem concerns, as well as challenges like guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, communication problems, social anxiety, and questions of life purpose and self-love.

Her background includes extensive experience in substance abuse counseling in both group and individual settings, along with many years of crisis intervention work focused on creating clear, tailored action plans during high-stress moments. Carolshene has worked with a wide age range, including children, teens, and adults, and she particularly enjoys supporting teenagers through the pressures of adolescence. She also offers thoughtful support to women navigating body image concerns, weight-related struggles, eating disorders, and compulsive behaviors.

Carolshene aims to create a steady, supportive space where clients feel heard and validated while developing strategies that fit their goals and values. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process that honors each client’s unique story and helps them reconnect with their strengths as they move forward.
