Hi there, I'm Lynn!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20+ years of experience providing individual and family therapy. I especially enjoy working with women in midlife transitions—navigating career shifts, parenting changes, relationships, and the question of “what’s next.”

My focus

I work with teens through adults, focusing on navigating change, relationships, and personal growth. My goal is to help clients feel grounded, confident, and empowered during times of transition.

My approach

My approach is casual, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I blend CBT, DBT, strength-based, and solution-focused techniques to help clients build coping skills, identify strengths, and create realistic changes that fit their lives.
