Background and approach

Her background includes work in community settings that exposed her to a wide range of mental health needs. Lynette uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that get in the way of daily functioning. She integrates a client-focused approach to set clear, achievable goals and to move at a pace people find comfortable.

Sessions center on problem-solving, skill building, and noticing small changes that add up. She earned a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and holds the LMHC credential. Lynette also brings years of lived experience juggling family life and military moves, which informs her practical, down-to-earth style.

She believes a bit of humor helps as people work through hard things. People who prefer straightforward guidance, clear goals, and a supportive presence tend to do well with her approach. She offers therapy in English and works with clients both inside Florida and internationally via online formats.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce symptoms. CBT is practical and problem-focused, often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and ADHD-related challenges.

She also uses a client-focused, person-centered style that prioritizes the person's pace and goals. This approach emphasizes listening, building trust, and finding the right next step together rather than following a strict plan.

Deciding which approach will work best is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, then suggest a path forward and adjust it as needed. This collaborative process helps tailor techniques to each person's life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls mirror in-person sessions for deeper conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during busy days, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and travel while keeping care consistent.
