Work with Angela Mesenburg (MSW, LCSW, CCTS-F)

About Me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Utah with nine years of experience supporting people with improving their mental health. I have multiple additional certifications and strive to continuously stay educated in current modalities and treatment through research and training. My approach is solution-focused, client-centered, and strengths-based with a strong foundation in healing past negative experiences or trauma.

When working with clients I strive to make the therapy experience genuine, respectful to assist in creating a safe place to process and share feelings openly. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you know best what you need in our sessions. I love honoring your strengths and hardships and exploring ways you can evolve as an individual. My areas of specialties include but are not limited to Acute, Chronic and Complex traumas, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders, Substance Abuse and Dependency, Suicidality, Eating Disorders, domestic violence, Gender dysphoria, Post Traumatic Stress Disorders, Body Image, Anxiety, Depression, Borderline Personality, Histrionic and Dependency Disorders with families, couples, and children/adults of all ages.
I am a certified yoga and Nidra Meditation teacher in which I use in my sessions as needed/requested to help with grounding and getting clients into a relaxed body. I encompass a holistic approach to my therapy services. I have an array of experience working with multiple populations. I have learned from these experiences that every individual is unique in who they are and what they need. I prefer to read my client's energy and be present in the moment with them to support them in seeking what they need in their healing. I have my own personal experience to add to my professional experience. I feel my personal experience has assisted me in being more empathetic and authentic in treating clients.

Angela is one of the most wise and compassionate people you will ever meet! I'm thankful I've had her to help me navigate the dark trenches of a divorce. Regardless of what I've had to work through, she listened, understood, and provided me with well thought out advice and feedback. With her support, I've been able relearn emotional regulation/self-soothing techniques, boundaries, and self-compassion. As a result, I've re-connected to the core aspects of myself that went dormant during my failed marriage and gained the knowledge necessary to slowly but surely rebuild my life and begin actualizing my potential. I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone whose feeling some version of stuck, fearful, alone, overwhelmed, confused, insecure, or disconnected from their power.

Even after only a few sessions, I feel like I've been given an opportunity to actually talk about my issues without getting shut down and being told to get over it. I finally feel like I have a chance.

Angela was wonderful! I was going through a rough patch and she helped me open up and recognize how to make a change. She provided so many resources, worksheets and books and really listened to what I had to say. I highly recommend Angela

I have had one session with Angela so far, but she gave me the confidence I needed to stay firm with my boundries this holiday season. My family respected my requests and we all had a safe and happy Christmas.

Angela has been extremely understanding to my needs. Some days I need to vent, some days I need to listen and some days I need to work through it and she caters to whatever those needs are. I've tried a few therapists elsewhere but no one has been as understanding as Angela! She also truly cares, I'm happy she's my therapist!

Angela is very real with me and is easy to speak with. She listens very well, and has been very helpful with offering solutions for my issues or just reassuring me and helping to reduce my anxieties. I'm happy I have her!

Angela has been amazing. She always knows the exact questions to ask me to help me come to my own conclusions in my healing journey. Her expertise, advice, and listening ear has been so appreciated.

Written by D.E. on Oct 21, 2021 after therapy with Angela for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and compassion fatigue

Angela is great. She’s very open and honest. She doesn’t operate or feign being perfect herself, which I appreciate. She has a very “we are in this together” vibe that I enjoy and makes me feel comfortable. We all have troubles. We all have histories. So does Angela. And she’s here to help you with yours from the expertise she has acquired.

Angela listens and goes out of her way to accommodate my schedule even when she doesn't have availability. She's knowledgeable and has great ideas to help me overcome my struggles. I would definitely recommend her.

Work with me!
