About Lynette

Lynette Pitre is a licensed professional counselor who uses a client-centered style to help people facing stress and life transitions. She often combines practical strategies with listening and reflection to support adults dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Lynette works from Louisiana and brings ten years of counseling experience to her practice.

She uses evidence-based tools such as cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors.

Background and approach

Mindfulness techniques are also part of her work, teaching simple ways to manage overwhelming feelings and improve sleep. Solution-focused methods help set clear, short-term goals and track small changes that matter. Lynette pays attention to parenting and family concerns and addresses intimacy-related issues and communication problems.

She also has experience supporting people coping with postpartum depression, panic attacks, bipolar and ADHD symptoms, and caregiver stress. Aging and geriatric matters, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and midlife concerns are also within her focus areas. Sessions are offered in English and Lynette accepts international clients.

She holds Louisiana LPC 6487 as her professional credential. Her practical approach emphasizes problem solving, steady support, and helping people build routines that fit everyday life. Clients who reach out typically fill a short questionnaire and choose session formats that work for them.

Lynette aims to meet people where they are and to help them take manageable steps toward feeling better.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and creating a space where they feel heard. This approach helps people clarify their values, talk through tough decisions, and build confidence in everyday choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps identify unhelpful thinking and tests small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and address sleep difficulties. Mindfulness techniques teach simple practices to notice the present moment without judgment. These skills can reduce rumination, ease panic symptoms, and support better emotional regulation during stressful parenting or life transition periods. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying options, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together. Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around parenting, caregiving, work, or travel while keeping continuity of care. Licensed professionals can use these options to maintain regular contact, practice new skills between sessions, and move at a pace that fits the client's life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
