How Lynnette Uses Evidence-Based Methods Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens, reflects what she hears, and helps the client set their own goals. This approach supports people who want to lead the direction of their work and clarify values and choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It includes strategies for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when conflicts or strong feelings arise.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Lynnette collaborates with each client to decide which approaches fit their goals and day-to-day life. She checks in on progress and adjusts methods when needed so therapy stays focused and useful.
