About Lynette

Lynette Roy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience helping people through hard moments. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and the ups and downs of major life changes. Her work is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping someone feel steadier and more capable in day-to-day life.

Lynette uses a mix of approaches to match each person she meets. She draws on narrative ideas to look at the stories people tell about themselves.

Background and approach

She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and mindfulness strategies to bring more calm into busy moments. Sessions start with listening - understanding what matters most to the client. Then she helps set small, realistic goals and practices that fit into everyday routines.

The focus is on clear tools and steps that make an immediate difference, as well as longer term shifts in how someone sees themselves and their choices. Lynette has supported people through parenting strain, caregiver stress, relationship challenges, career crossroads, and mood-related concerns like bipolar or postpartum depression. She also helps with isolation, life purpose questions, and midlife transition worries.

Based in Maine, she sees clients in English and accepts international clients. Her background as an LCSW guides a practical, person-centered approach that balances listening with actionable strategies.

Online session options

How Lynette’s Approaches Work Online

Online sessions use narrative techniques to help people notice and rewrite the stories that shape their day-to-day life. Narrative Therapy focuses on separating the problem from the person so clients can see different possibilities and make changes in relationships, identity, or routines.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and actions that keep someone stuck and replaces them with clearer, more helpful patterns. CBT can be practical for anxiety, panic, depression, and many stress-related concerns because it centers on small experiments and skill practice.

Lynette treats choosing an approach as a team decision. She listens first, then suggests options based on a person's goals and preferences. Together they try techniques and adjust the mix of narrative, CBT, and mindfulness until it fits the client's life.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversations and deeper work, phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging works well for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules while keeping focus on practical skills and steady progress.
