About Lynette
Lynette Roy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience helping people through hard times. She supports adults facing anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. Lynette focuses on practical steps that people can use day to day to feel steadier and more able to cope.
Her work blends body-oriented awareness with thought-focused strategies. Somatic therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are part of her approach, along with mindfulness and motivational interviewing.
Background and approach
Sessions look at how stress shows up in the body and in everyday thoughts and habits, and then build small, usable tools to interrupt those patterns. Clients can expect straightforward conversation and active skill-building. Lynette listens and then suggests exercises, experiments, and short practices to try between sessions.
She pays attention to relationships, identity, parenting challenges, and career strain when those areas feel relevant. Based in Maine, Lynette brings 15 years of clinical practice to each meeting. Her credential is LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker.
She also works with issues such as attachment concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, and postpartum depression. Therapy with her typically covers coping skills for panic and SAD, navigating divorce or separation, and finding purpose in midlife or young adulthood. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
To begin, people complete an intake questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.
How Lynette’s approaches work online
Somatic-informed work pays attention to how stress and emotion show up in the body. Online sessions can include guided body awareness, breathing exercises, and gentle movement prompts to help people notice and shift physical tension. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions; in remote sessions this looks like identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new responses through short homework and real-life experiments. Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice, and values and can help people facing life transitions or questions about purpose in clear, reflective conversations.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what feels helpful. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods fit best for the person and their situation.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. That variety helps people fit therapy into busy lives, keeps work moving forward between sessions, and allows consistent contact when travel or distance is an issue. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach grounding skills, guide cognitive exercises, and support ongoing reflection over time.
