All of us, at some point in our lives, are going to experience a significant emotional struggle. Whether individual or relational, we all encounter sometimes brief, sometimes longer, periods where our struggle may begin to feel overwhelming. My practice is founded on treating clients with a comprehensive psychosocial approach. Most individuals realize medication can temporarily retard the progress of symptoms through symptom reduction. Alone, medication cannot resolve the personal issues associated with long term increases in quality of life. I believe my best professional strengths are an abiding respect for the individual coming into my office, and a reliable resource to explore, educate and inform persons about critical life issues.

Do you feel alone in your sadness? Are you frustrated with your situation? I want to help you live a happier, more fulfilling life. I can give you the tools to help you overcome the frustration that goes along with life's ups and downs. You can find strength and hope in my caring approach and experience.

Hello, Thank you for visiting my page. I have worked with people who have experienced trauma, depression, unresolved grief, addiction, anxiety, loss, and life transitions. I work collaboratively with my clients, while being supportive and dedicated to their increased well being. My approach to therapy is to be genuine, open, honest, supportive, and curious. I view psychotherapy as a framework for identifying, understanding, and working through problems that cause people to feel stuck, helpless or insecure about their lives. Ultimately, I consider the goal of psychotherapy as empowering others to reach aspired levels of purpose.

There is always hope. Why we feel the way we do, how we seem to always get stuck or how we can't seem to navigate through challenging life events are questions that, with help, we can answer. When life presents these concerns, we're often left experiencing feelings and thoughts we can no longer manage on our own, and we may also feel disconnected from ourselves, others and our world. Working together, we can understand how your thoughts and past experiences influence the way you perceive and interact with the world around you, today.

It’s okay to not be ok. Asking for help is the bravest thing you can do. I am here to help! Are you feeling anxious or depressed? Maybe for you it’s anger, withdrawal or substance use. Maybe you are having relational issues or struggling to work through trauma. Maybe you are a parent really struggling to manage tough behaviors with your child. Whatever you are feeling and whatever you are going through, your feelings are valid and you are worth the effort. Sometimes our worries and problems feel so big and so dense, it’s hard to find our way through without a guide and a little extra support. I get it, life is hard!

Feeling lost, alone, or like your partner is no longer the person you first met? Take a deep breath and call me. In just moments we can have your first session scheduled and you’ll be taking a step towards healing. I have over three years of training in the mental health field and experience with a variety of clients presenting with anything from anxiety and depression to relationship conflict and infidelity. Together, we can help you rebuild.

Updated Services: I am providing teletherapy (online) services and will verify your insurance coverage for this service. I am also offering modified therapeutic services for those impacted by COVID-19 including quarantined and at-risk individuals, service workers, healthcare professionals, grocery store employees and first responders. These services include a text and written communication throughout the day and scheduled phone calls. My desire is for therapeutic services during this time be accessible, flexible and affordable.

Through my role as a professional counselor, I've been privileged to be allowed access to the most deeply held thoughts and beliefs of many who are suffering. I've been honored to bear witness to that suffering... and to the healing that ensues. I continue to accept new clients and to look forward to accompanying all of them on their healing journeys.

I work with a lot of children and adolescents who are in distress, confused and need help with coping skills. They want to understand what happened, who they are and where they are going. Talking with someone other than family helps. It helps to not feel judged and feel accepted. We all have a place where we belong.

How I work is best described by a current client: Having the opportunity to know Lynn has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I say this because she has given me life lessons, the kind that I use every day. Lynn has the absolute gift to open your mind and take you places that you didn't realize you needed to go all with the security and timing that makes you reflect upon yourself for optimal personal growth.

How on earth do you choose a great therapist? Seriously, I mean...look at the hundreds of wonderful therapists on this site! Picking a therapist can be intimidating, but don't let it daunt you! Studies continually show that, for therapy to be "successful," there needs to be a strong relationship between you and your therapist. That's it. Really. Skill and competency are important-yes-but a therapist's expertise won't shine through if you don't trust them.

Is everything “too much” and “not enough” and “literally you can’t even” and “you don’t know” and “maybe you should talk to someone”, but also “you feel like you should be able to handle it on your own so forget it”? Okay, well, first, just because you CAN handle it on your own, doesn’t mean you have to. That’s where I come in. I believe that you can handle it too. And sometimes, when it feels like life has been doing it’s damnedest to take you out, you need someone in your corner to remind you what tools are available, which muscles need to be strengthened, or that it’s okay to just take a nap and try again tomorrow.

I have worked with children and families for over twenty years and I never cease to be amazed at their resiliency. What I have learned is that children do cope with life struggles, but increasing the likelihood that they develop positive coping skills often depends on the support that surrounds them. Working with children and adults to recognize their own strengths and to learn new strategies for success remains a focus of my practice.

I work with the whole family in my private practice - individual, couples & family therapy. I love what I do and feel strongly about promoting and helping families develop healthy relationships and individuals to become strong and confident. As a Licensed Marital & Family Therapist I feel I have a lot to offer couples who wish to improve their relationship: Communication & conflict resolution skills; reconnecting and developing a closer relationship, etc. I also do premarital counseling. As a Licensed Professional Counselor I assist with strategies to deal with anxiety, depression, stress, loss and grief, life transitions and more.

Are you are struggling with addiction, anxiety, or traumatic stress? Do you have difficulty communicating, resolving conflict, or managing anger? As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Field Traumatologist, I can help you find effective strategies to overcome life's challenges. Together, we will find the solutions that work best for you. I listen without judgment and provide therapy that complements your personal strengths, needs and goals. I believe healing requires authentic connection, so I deeply value the therapeutic alliance. I also use experiential therapy to provide productive, highly interactive, and memorable sessions.

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! Looking for a therapist that fits your needs can sometimes be intimidating and overwhelming. I applaud you for making it this far in that journey and taking the first step to getting the support you deserve! Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed? There are practical ways to address your emotions and concerns.

I believe the deepest human longing is to be known and loved. It is through connection we find fulfillment and satisfaction in life. Often, our adverse life experiences cause fear, anxiety, anger, shame, and confusion, which rob us of authentic relationships. It is my passion and life's commitment to support and assist others in finding their path of freedom so that they may live a rich and deeply connected life with those they love. Together we will explore and process what obstacles may be keeping the client from reaching goals, feeling stuck, and fully living.

My counseling approach accepts the whole person and their broad experience, taking this into account to help clients to see and understand their pain, strengths, root causes, and remedies in order to move toward a full sense of healing. I believe that this full sense of healing cannot be had without a strong and healthy sense of purpose, hope, identity, and worth. “Why is this happening?” and “What can I do about this?”are common questions that come with many struggles. This is often true when the struggle is individual, circumstantial, or involves relationships with others.

Have you been betrayed in love due to infidelity, online sexual behavior or substance abuse? Are you stuck in the pain of discovering the infidelity and addictions and are having difficulty making sense of the betrayal? Are you second guessing your sense of reality and feel fear, anxiety, self blame, decreased confidence and distrust? Have you been to other therapists for these problems with no resolve? Getting help from a skilled clinician, that has been trained to work with Sexual Addictions, Substance Abuse, Anger Management and Betrayed Partners is essential. This is not your fault. I can help you get through this.
