More about Lindsay

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Indiana with seven years of post-graduate experience. I received both my Bachelors and Masters degrees from Indiana University and have more extensive training in motivational interviewing, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy as well as being a certified yoga instructor. My work-experience thus far has brought me to be most experienced in working with individuals who struggle with interpersonal traumas, abuse histories, PTSD, depression, anxiety and personality related disorders. Additionally, I am currently pursuing a PhD in social work with my research interest being complex-interpersonal trauma and the use of yoga in therapy settings.

I believe my laid-back and compassionate personality reflect in my treatment approaches. I believe building a strong client-therapist relationship is essential in providing good therapy and take the time to develop this relationship. I commonly use interventions guided by cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy and mindfulness/grounding techniques. Treatment should fit each persons individual needs and I will work with you to develop goals and work to achieve them!

Seeking therapy can be a vulnerable thing and I respect that in all seeking services. I look forward to helping bring positive outcomes from therapy into your life!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Reviewed April 2020

I was really nervous about starting therapy and had no idea how it works. Lindsay has been brilliant about pulling me out of my privacy mode and getting me to open up. She listens and gives advice in the most non judgemental way. I still get a little anxious about therapy right before a session, but I always feel so much better afterwards. I'm so happy I made the decision to use this site, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my therapist.

Lindsay has been absolutely instrumental in the support of my mental health. She listens when I just need to vent and gives great advice when I need some direction. I know I can reach out if distressed and receive a timely reply, and she reaches out in between sessions to check on how things are and that's incredibly appreciated. I would recommend her to anyone.

I am appreciative and thankful for Lindsay. I came to BetterHelp after struggling to find an in person counselor locally. I need a local counselor due to my child's medical condition. I was nervous and apprehensive about online counseling. But I love it! It has helped a lot already. I really like the different ways I can communicate and enjoy the phone calls/video chats when they do happen. This service is great and Lindsay is awesome!!

Reviewed December 2019

Not only does Lindsay take the time to respond to my messages between sessions and make sure I truly feel heard, but she has rarely cancelled/rescheduled a session on me. She always seems prepared, and remembers the things we've discussed, even when something comes up in one session relating to something we last discussed months before.

Reviewed November 2019

Lindsay is a wealth of resources. She works alongside me to find the best materials for me and my schedule, whether that’s a meditation app or book. She’s very insightful, while also allows the space for me to process and come to my own conclusions.

I have already recommended BetterHelp to a lot of my friends and family that have a busy life but still need to have someone to talk to. Lindsay has been more than wonderful and patient helping me work through issues going on. It had been a week since she heard from me, back to school was keeping me busy, and she even took the time to reach out to me to make sure things were going well. Lindsay has been one of the easiest people I have been able to talk to when it came to counseling. She works wonderfully around my school and work schedule to set up appointments. Lindsay, without a doubt, has been wonderfully accommodating with messaging and sessions, my schedule, and my needs, showing her true passion to want to help.

Felt like my world was caving in at first, but I finally managed to get help, which so happened to be from BetterHelp. I was a little skeptical at first because I always thought therapy was only for a certain type of person. Lindsay though, she has helped me with more than she knows and she's very good at connecting with people my age. I just want to express my thorough gratitude towards her and the field of work she is in. Everyday I'm working on getting better, and Lindsay has been a supportive role in helping me with that the whole way. Thank you.

Lindsay is absolutely amazing! I switched to her from a different consular, who was also great, but their style just didn't match mine. Lindsay absolutely does. I'm so glad I found her and she's given me so many coping mechanisms that help as well. Now, I fell comfortable talking to her so I can get feedback, but I also feel confident that I can make it through some of the tougher moments on my own too. When things get really frustrating I often reflect and think "Lindsay's right, I should go journal this." "A quick meditation can help, just breathe." She helped me open doors that I can confidently walk through on my own now.
