Background and approach

Her work often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that keep problems going. She also uses motivational interviewing to support people who want to make lasting changes around substance use or other habits. Mindfulness exercises are woven in to help with stress, grounding, and managing strong emotions.

In sessions Lynne focuses on practical tools and clear steps. She helps people set achievable goals and practices to try between meetings. Conversations are direct and compassionate, with an emphasis on what will help in daily life.

Lynne is based in Maryland and holds an MD and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor credential. She provides care in English and draws on her varied clinical background when tailoring a plan. Her style suits people who want structure, clear coping skills, and steady support while they work toward change.

How Lynne’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy puts the person at the center of care and focuses on listening, understanding, and responding to what matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and guides which techniques to try next.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. It breaks those patterns into manageable steps and gives concrete techniques to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers skills for handling intense emotions, improving tolerance for distress, and strengthening relationships. These skills are useful when strong feelings get in the way of daily life.

Picking the right approach is a collaborative process. Lynne will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts methods over time based on what is helpful and what isn’t working.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while balancing daily life.
