About Lynne

Lynne Healey is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people facing midlife change, stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She brings 22 years of clinical experience and a practical, hopeful approach to sessions. Lynne speaks English and works with people from many backgrounds, including those dealing with addiction, grief, and relationship strain.

She focuses on matching treatment to the person, using approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, EMDR, and mindfulness. That means she aims to listen first, then build a plan that fits daily life and specific goals. Sessions emphasize clear skills, practical steps, and steady progress rather than jargon.

Lynne has substantial experience with trauma and trauma-related reactions, and she has supported people recovering from violent community events. She also regularly helps clients with sleep and eating difficulties, chronic illness or pain, caregiver stress, and long-term mood struggles like bipolar disorder.

Her style tends to be warm and direct. She encourages people to try small changes and notice what helps. Parents and caregivers often find her approach pragmatic, focused on balancing responsibilities while tending to personal needs.

To start working together, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and Lynne is available to people in Florida and internationally.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. It helps people feel heard and guides decisions about what to work on next, such as midlife transitions or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress management through exercises and short homework tasks.

EMDR is used for people coping with traumatic memories and strong emotional reactions. It involves structured sessions to process distressing experiences and reduce their daily impact.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce time spent traveling, and allow follow-up conversations between appointments. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Expect an emphasis on practical exercises, skill-building, and planning that can be used between sessions to support everyday life.
