Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is practical and skills-based, often used to address anxiety, panic, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-focused awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and sensations. These practices can reduce reactivity, improve emotion regulation, and support coping with grief, chronic stress, and mood difficulties.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented approach that helps people explore and strengthen their own motivation for change. It is useful for making life adjustments, addressing ambivalence, and supporting sustained behavior change.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Lynette will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Lynette is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during transitions, and connect with a licensed professional from different locations.
