Lynelle Goodreau

My communication style

I ask many questions and engage with respect and truthfulness. I offer guidance and will inform you when I sense danger or dysfunction in your life. I listen well and validate, encourage, and mirror your growth and healthy behaviors. My goal is to help increase your self-esteem and inner growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

I wanted to be a family therapist after a wonderful psychology class. I wanted to understand why parents blamed their children for their shortcomings and help people realize they are not bad or responsible for their parents' feelings. We are never responsible for the behavior of the big people in our lives.

My goals for you

I ask what goals you'd like to see happen and together we plan a workable solution that includes the ups and downs of achieving them. I give honest input on ideas and actions you can take toward your desired goal, remembering that patience and resilience are key players in goal setting.

Our first session

I ask clients what goals they would like to see happen, and together we can plan a workable solution that includes the ups and downs of achieving a goal. I will give them honest input as to what ideas and thoughts they can put into action toward their desired goal. Let's not forget that patience and resilience are key players in goal setting.
