Lindsay Humphrey, LMSW

Lindsay Humphrey is a licensed master social worker (LMSW) based in Michigan who helps people managing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and caregiver fatigue. She supports individuals facing life changes, relationship strain, family concerns, isolation, and challenges around midlife or young adulthood. Her work also addresses chronic illness, pain, aging and geriatric issues, and financial or purpose-related worries.

She brings nine years of clinical experience in outpatient settings and online work. Before becoming a therapist she spent seven years as a case manager serving older adults, people with disabilities, and veterans. That background informs her approach to practical problems and long-term challenges.

Lindsay practices in a collaborative, person-centered way. She treats therapy as a partnership where the client’s goals shape each step. She blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.

Mindfulness and relaxation exercises are also part of her sessions when they fit a client’s needs. Together with each person she builds a clear plan aimed at manageable change and better day-to-day coping.

People who want straightforward guidance and a supportive, interactive style may find her approach helpful. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy button to arrange a session.

How Lindsay’s approaches guide online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and priorities. It emphasizes a respectful, listening stance where the client’s goals direct the work and decisions about what to try next.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It helps people notice patterns that increase anxiety or low mood and then practice different, more helpful responses. This can be useful for managing stress, depression, and caregiver burnout.

Mindfulness-based work teaches simple attention and relaxation exercises. These tools can reduce reactivity, ease anxiety, and provide quick ways to ground yourself during a stressful day.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Lindsay works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals, preferences, and life circumstances. That decision can change as progress is made and priorities shift.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments during caregiving demands or medical appointments. Since specific session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled and delivered.
