About Lynne
Lynne Peters is an LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) in Maryland with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are feeling stuck, anxious, overwhelmed by stress, or weighed down by depression. Lynne also addresses addictions, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem and emptiness.
She helps people work through problems related to abandonment, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and family of origin issues. She also supports those facing communication and control issues, codependency, commitment concerns, and the fallout of divorce or separation. First responder issues and coping after natural or human-caused disasters are part of her focus as well.
Her approach draws on client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy tools. Mindfulness techniques and elements from Imago relationship work also appear in sessions when relevant. She uses motivational interviewing strategies to support people making practical changes.
In a typical session, Lynne listens to what matters most right now, then suggests small, concrete steps to try between meetings. Sessions emphasize clear skills for managing symptoms, practical problem solving, and improving everyday relationships. Progress is measured in achievable goals rather than sweeping promises.
Sessions are conducted in English and are based in Maryland. Fees vary by location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How Lynne’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client’s concerns guide each session. Online conversations can follow the same pattern, with the therapist prioritizing what feels most important in the moment and adjusting topics to fit the client's current life demands.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. Delivered remotely, CBT can include worksheets, behavioral experiments, and step-by-step practice between sessions to help with anxiety, depression, and habit change.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills translate well to online work through guided skill practice, role plays, and short coaching between sessions when needed.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day obstacles and then suggest which methods to try first. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work and family schedules, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when life is busy.
