She also addresses impulsivity, Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD), and questions about life purpose. Her style is collaborative and strengths-based.
She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and helps clients test small changes. Motivational Interviewing shows up when people need help deciding on next steps or finding internal motivation. Dr.

Online session options
How approaches like Narrative and CBT work online
Dr. Lynch uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from problem-filled stories and rewrite how they view difficult events. This can help when someone feels defined by loss, shame, or past failures and wants to see different possibilities.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following the client's pace to build confidence and self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try concrete experiments to change mood and behavior over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Lynch collaborates with each person to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and what feels doable. She checks in regularly and adjusts strategies as needed so the plan fits the person's life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises that benefit from seeing expressions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, quick coaching, or maintaining momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, and other daily demands.
