Lindsay Humphrey , LMSW

Lindsay Humphrey is a Michigan-based licensed social worker who brings a practical and compassionate approach to helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strains, and the many transitions life can bring. She practices as an LMSW, which stands for Licensed Master Social Worker, and she draws on nine years of clinical experience working with people across the lifespan in both rural and urban settings.

Lindsay’s background includes seven years as a case manager supporting older adults, people with disabilities, and veterans, experience that informs her sensitivity to caregiver stress, aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness, and blended family dynamics. In therapy she blends person-centered listening with structured tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based practices, offering relaxation exercises and practical strategies to build coping skills, improve self-esteem, and address mood and adjustment challenges.

Her style is collaborative and interactive - she works with each client to develop a treatment plan tailored to their goals and circumstances. Lindsay offers appointments through online formats, meeting people where they are and providing ongoing support for issues like isolation, life purpose struggles, and compassion fatigue. She welcomes the opportunity to support individuals as they work toward clearer perspective and healthier coping.

Approaches That Translate to Online Therapy

Lindsay often uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and partnership so clients feel heard while exploring their goals and values. This approach helps with relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions by centering the client’s perspective.

She also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical method that identifies unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches skills to shift behaviors and mood. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with chronic illness.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Lindsay works alongside each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and for people managing caregiving, mobility, or geographic challenges. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, clients can access consistent support in ways that match their routines and comfort, making it easier to maintain momentum between sessions.
