Lynette Roy, LCSW - Therapist in Maine

About Lynette

Lynette Roy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes. Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping clients find practical ways to feel steadier day to day.

In sessions she listens closely and helps clients name what matters most. She offers clear tools for coping, problem solving, and shifting unhelpful patterns. Her work blends practical exercises with reflective conversation so clients leave with concrete steps to try between meetings.

Background and approach

Lynette uses several evidence-informed methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and narrative approaches. That mix lets her tailor work to each person’s needs and goals. She explains choices plainly and focuses on what helps in real life.

She also pays attention to relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, and identity-related issues. Her background supports work around attachment, caregiver stress, codependency, and transitions like divorce or midlife change. She brings steady professional experience from practice in Maine.

Sessions may address specific problems such as panic attacks, postpartum depression, seasonal mood shifts, and work or career stress. Throughout, she centers a practical, respectful partnership with the person in front of her. The aim is better coping, clearer choices, and more moments of relief.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Many of her methods adapt well to remote work and can be used in brief practical ways during video or phone sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy brings simple attention and breathing practices into daily life to reduce reactivity and increase calm. Narrative Therapy invites people to tell their story differently, identifying values and themes that guide changes in relationships and routines.

Lynette treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that make sense for the issue, and adjust based on what helps. The plan evolves together so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which support different needs and schedules. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, try short check-ins between appointments, or use written tools for reflection. The focus remains on practical strategies and steady support regardless of the delivery method.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
