About Lynette
Her approach is supportive and interactive. She listens closely and treats people with sensitivity, avoiding stigmatizing labels. Lynette believes clients are the experts on their own stories and draws on their strengths to address what feels overwhelming.
Over decades of practice she has helped people coping with abuse, PTSD, addictive behaviors, bipolar concerns, and life changes such as divorce or blended family adjustments. She also assists those dealing with caregiver stress, first responder issues, and feelings of isolation or low self-esteem.
Her work blends several evidence-based techniques including cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior elements, person-centered and humanistic perspectives, and rational-emotive strategies. She adapts conversations and plans to fit each person rather than following a fixed script.
Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and building tools to manage emotions and impulses. Lynette frames therapy as a partnership where the client leads and she offers guidance and support toward achievable goals.

Approaches that guide online work
Her practice draws on cognitive behavioral ideas that help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors to reduce distress. This approach often helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with daily stressors.She also uses dialectical behavior elements that teach practical skills for managing strong emotions, improving tolerance for distress, and strengthening communication. Those skills can be useful for relationship strain, impulsivity, and intense mood shifts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they adjust the plan as progress and challenges arise.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since they are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow a quicker check-in on a workday or between responsibilities. It can also make video-free options useful when lower bandwidth or a shorter phone check-in is a better fit. Licensed professionals and therapists often help clients choose the most practical way to meet based on what will work in day-to-day life.
