About Lynne

Lynne Healey is a licensed mental health counselor with 22 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and mood concerns. She speaks plainly and meets people where they are, offering steady support and practical tools. She works with clients facing relationship and intimacy issues, grief, body image and eating concerns, sleep problems, parenting strain, and career stress.

Lynne also supports people dealing with bipolar symptoms, anger, and LGBT-related concerns.

Background and approach

Her approach centers on listening first and building a plan together. She blends client-centered care with skills-based methods so sessions stay focused and useful. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to challenge unhelpful thoughts and from dialectical behavior therapy to build emotional regulation skills.

Lynne has worked with trauma survivors since 2000 and includes eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, EMDR, as one tool when appropriate. She tailors treatment to a person’s needs and life situation and adjusts pacing based on comfort and goals.

She is comfortable addressing complex problems that overlap, such as chronic pain with mood symptoms, codependency with substance concerns, or blended family stress alongside caregiving burdens. Her style is direct but compassionate, focused on helping people take manageable steps forward. Based in Florida, Lynne brings a practical, hopeful outlook to therapy.

She encourages people who want to change to try small experiments between sessions and to track what helps. Her goal is to help clients build skills they can use long after therapy ends.

Online support

How EMDR, CBT, and Client-Centered Work Online

Client-centered therapy begins with the therapist listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It focuses on understanding a person's experience and building goals together, which can help with relationship strain, identity questions, and self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and patterns that keep returning. CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework to practice between meetings.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-informed method used to reduce the hold of upsetting memories. In online work it involves guided attention and processing while the therapist coaches through steps and pacing that feel comfortable.

Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to find a mix of strategies that fit a person’s life and needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier scheduling. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill coaching and EMDR-style work. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simpler to check in between sessions or to have brief moments of support during a busy day.
