About Lynette

Lynette Roy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of practice helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes.

Background and approach

She combines practical tools with thoughtful reflection to support clients coping with relationship struggles, parenting concerns, career questions, and mood-related conditions including bipolar disorder and postpartum issues. Her style blends evidence-informed strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with mindfulness and narrative work to address thought patterns, emotional responses, and the stories people tell about their lives.

She also draws on existential and motivational approaches when clients are exploring life purpose, midlife transitions, or feelings of isolation. Clients can expect collaboration on concrete coping skills alongside attention to meaning and values.

Based in Maine, Lynette tailors treatment to each person’s circumstances and goals, offering practical interventions and space for processing grief, anger, and identity-related concerns including LGBT matters. She works with issues ranging from attachment and codependency to seasonal mood changes and caregiver stress, aiming to help people build resilience and clearer direction.

Integrating evidence and meaning through online therapy



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-focused approach that helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and self-compassion to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation. Existential Therapy invites exploration of values, life purpose, and meaning, which can be helpful for people facing midlife questions, major transitions, or feelings of isolation.

Finding the right blend of approaches is a collaborative process. Lynette will work with each person to assess goals, preferences, and the issues they want to address, adjusting techniques as therapy progresses so treatment aligns with what the client finds most helpful.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for varied schedules and locations. These options make it easier to fit consistent therapeutic work into everyday life and maintain momentum between meetings while supporting access for international clients and those living in Maine.
