I’m Bess Lynch (she/her), a licensed counselor and supervisor in Ohio. I work with adults who are struggling with eating disorders, body image concerns, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Many of the people who find their way to my practice are capable, responsible, and used to being the one others lean on. They often hold themselves to very high standards and feel a lot of pressure to keep things together. On the outside, things may look “fine,” but internally it can feel exhausting, confusing, or lonely.
In therapy, we slow things down. There’s no expectation to perform, explain yourself perfectly, or know exactly what you need. My approach is grounded in Health at Every Size (HAES), meaning I support healing without a focus on weight and with respect for body diversity.
I work collaboratively and use evidence-based care, with an emphasis on creating a steady, non-judgmental space. I offer both in-person and virtual sessions and work with clients throughout Ohio. Whether you're ready to dive in or just exploring options, you're welcome here.
