About Lynne

Lynne Healey is a Florida LMHC with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, career problems, and bipolar challenges. Lynne also offers support around LGBT concerns and intimacy-related issues.

She uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen carefully and build a working relationship. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to address thinking patterns, emotion regulation, and behavior changes. EMDR and mindfulness tools are also part of her approach when appropriate.

Lynne has worked with trauma survivors since 2000 and has experience assisting people after major traumatic events, including school shooting recovery. She combines trauma-focused work with brief, skills-based strategies when the situation calls for it. Sessions can include processing past events as well as building tools to handle strong feelings in daily life.

She describes therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people match a treatment plan to their needs and goals. That may mean practicing grounding and breathing skills, learning thought-restructuring exercises, or using trauma-processing methods when indicated.

Outside of clinical work, Lynne is a parent and draws on that perspective when supporting clients facing family and parenting strain. She works with people from diverse cultural backgrounds and aims to help those who are committed to making changes in their life circumstances.

Approaches used for online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a reliable working relationship. It helps people feel heard and clarifies goals so practical steps can follow. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thought patterns and behaviors with exercises and homework to reduce stress and change unhelpful reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when strong feelings or relationship strain are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lynne will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean starting with skill-building, then moving to trauma-focused processing if needed, or combining several approaches over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, it can cut travel time, allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break, or avoid needing to be on camera when that helps someone focus. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practice, and CBT homework to remote sessions so the practical work continues without disruption.
