About Lindsey
Lindsey Krauss is a Licensed Professional Counselor who uses a client-centered approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, mood concerns, and grief. She keeps sessions straightforward and interactive, listening first and then working with each person to set clear, practical goals.

Over the past three years she has worked as a dual diagnosis counselor in medication assisted treatment settings.
Background and approach
That work gave her regular experience with mood and personality disorders and with people navigating substance use challenges. Lindsey offers short-term, goal-focused strategies alongside longer conversations when they are needed. She uses plain, direct techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help change unhelpful thinking and from Solution-Focused Therapy to set achievable steps.
Her style remains client-centered, so the pace and focus reflect what each person says is most important. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is weighing change or feeling stuck with substance use or other habits.
People come to Lindsey for help with anger, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, career stress, and life transitions. She works to create a calm, practical space where concerns are sorted, options are weighed, and small, testable steps are planned.
Approaches and Online Care for Practical Change
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what they say, and builds goals together to make sessions relevant and respectful.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and develop different responses to anxiety, depression, or mood swings.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, supplies concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive behavior. It includes techniques for regulating emotion, tolerating distress, and improving interactions with others.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That way the work fits the person rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversations without travel. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing reminders between sessions. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to use the approaches above in flexible ways.
