About Lindsey
Lindsey Cosgrove is a licensed clinical social worker with 17 years of experience. She practices in Mississippi and focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety so they can move forward with more ease. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what feels hard.
Sessions are organized around what the person needs in the moment, whether that means problem solving or simply being heard. Lindsey emphasizes practical steps that can reduce day-to-day distress.
Background and approach
Her approach draws from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and trial new ways of coping. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice their thoughts and bodies without getting swept up in them. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies help set short-term goals and track progress.
She has supported people through grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, career decisions, and shifts linked to chronic conditions like bipolar disorder. Lindsey also works with concerns such as sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges. Her practice includes LGBT-related matters and trauma and abuse recovery.
Sessions aim to blend listening with clear, attainable tools that fit daily life. Lindsey helps people weigh options, rehearse new skills, and adjust plans as things change. The focus is on steady, realistic steps toward feeling more capable and balanced.
How Lindsey’s Approaches Fit Online Therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on the individual’s experience and priorities. It involves active listening, empathy, and helping the person lead the conversation so goals feel personally meaningful. This approach fits online work well because it centers on what the client wants to address in each session.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. Sessions include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical exercises to change behavior. CBT is often paired with take-home exercises that adapt easily to video, phone, or messaging formats.
Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to notice thoughts and body signals without reacting immediately. Short guided exercises and breathing techniques can be introduced in any online format and practiced between contacts to reduce stress and improve sleep.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lindsey will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and practice skills together. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep momentum while working on change.
