About Lindsay

Lindsay Scoffil is a Florida licensed mental health counselor - LMHC with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on anger along with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and issues around intimacy. She also works with depression, addictions, grief, self-esteem, parenting concerns, and career-related stress.

Lindsay treats anger as one of many responses people bring to sessions. She helps clients notice what leads to angry reactions and try different ways of responding. Conversations are direct and practical. She uses skills practice, goal-setting, and moment-to-moment coaching to reduce impulsive reactions and improve communication.

Her approach blends several evidence-based methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take actions that matter despite difficult feelings.

Lindsay also draws on attachment-focused ideas and trauma-focused therapy when past relationships or traumatic events shape current anger or avoidance. She helps people make sense of patterns that repeat in relationships and teaches strategies to interrupt them. Practical exercises and homework are common between sessions.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and action-oriented. Lindsay asks questions, listens for patterns, and offers specific tools to try. She works in English and practices in Florida, and the cost model uses a cancelable subscription. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session scheduled via the online therapy options button.

How Lindsay’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when anger or other difficult feelings show up. It’s useful for people who want clearer priorities and consistent behavior change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns that fuel upset and testing new, more helpful responses in real life. It’s practical and well suited to working on anger tied to workplace stress, relationships, or self-criticism.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance skills. These tools can reduce impulsive reactions and improve communication during heated moments.

Finding the right mix of these methods is part of the work. Lindsay will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying approaches, reviewing what helps, and adjusting plans together.

Confirm the exact session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists can guide skills practice between meetings so changes are tested in day-to-day life.
