Feeling more tired than usual, wondering how you are going to make it through the day? Are you frustrated with trying to achieve things you feel you should be able to do, but somehow can’t? Do you have thoughts and feelings of anxiety, anger, betrayal, shame, grief, or humiliation log jammed in your mind? You wish life could be better, but you can’t seem to find the path there on your own, even after doing your best. What if you could clear the log jam? Be kinder to yourself? Feel part of the world?

I specialize in working with individuals with neurodevelopmental disabilities including autism, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, and ADHD. I work with both children and adults, providing evaluations from a neuro-positive perspective. Many of my clients have been young adults struggling with ADHD and autism as they try to navigate college and work life.

Do you feel overwhelmed by the challenges of life? Stressed out, burned out, coming out? My name is Lynne McRae, and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, Certified Clinical Herbalist, Reiki Master, and Yoga Nidra teacher. I work well with people who experience anxiety, which can present itself as stress and burnout, using substances, food, or social media to cope, hating your body, feeling in emotional or physical pain, unhappy relationships, disempowering sexual experiences, grief and loss, or many other types of disconnections.

My approach to therapy hinges on finding what works for you as an individual. This takes a lot of honesty and courage about the things with which you struggle. My commitment to my clients is to help them see these dynamics more clearly from a place of clarity, dignity, & respect and empower them towards a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling. I have a strong focus on relationships. This includes the connections we have with meaningful people in our lives as well as the relationship we have with ourselves. Naturally, topics such as belonging, accountability, and shared experience tend to be important conversations for us.

As a Stanford trained psychologist, I combine skills-based with insight-oriented therapy approaches to help young adults and adults with anxiety, depression, or disordered eating find their way back to a fulfilling life. Do you feel down and sad for no apparent reason? Do you feel all alone and as though nobody understands you or sees your pain? Do you tend to overthink things? You are not alone. Through my ability to read between the lines, I can see you and help you better understand yourself. We will work through subconscious challenges that interfere with your joy in life, growth, and path to healing.

I am, first and foremost, a highly trained Christian Therapist. For over thirty years I have worked with couples, individuals, and families helping put an anchor back into their lives. As a Marriage and Family Therapist who is licensed in both Colorado and California, I have two Masters degrees: a Masters of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Masters of Divinity (a three-year ministerial academic training) both earned from Fuller Seminary in Pasadena, California that has been coined “The Princeton of the West”. I use a "systems" approach to marriage and family therapy which means I view each person as part of a whole.
