Background and approach
Sessions are oriented toward real-world changes, like improving communication or easing social anxiety. She uses structured techniques alongside listening so clients can set clear, achievable goals. Trauma and post-traumatic stress are a focus, and Lynette supports people working through past hurt in ways that move at the client’s pace.
She also helps with relationship patterns and communication problems by teaching skills that make conversations clearer and less reactive. Work on mood concerns like depression and bipolar centers on stabilization and coping strategies that fit daily life. Her style combines client-centered attention with evidence-informed tools.
That includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas, plus solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing to help people stay engaged in change. She invites steady collaboration and practical planning. Outside of work she enjoys reading, traveling, cooking, and time with her large family and nine grandchildren.
Those interests inform a grounded, relatable approach in sessions.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s priorities. The therapist offers empathy, reflects what matters most, and helps people find their own solutions; this is useful when someone needs space to sort feelings and make choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, includes skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and sharpening interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for mood instability and relationship concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean starting with listening and client-centered support, then adding CBT or DBT skills as goals become clearer. This is a shared process that adjusts over time.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video allows a fuller face-to-face conversation while phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep work moving forward.
