More about Toni-Lynn

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPCC

I am a California licensed psychotherapist with over 17 years of professional experience in both private practice and educational setting. My theoretical orientation is influenced by the fields of Art Therapy, existential psychology, and mind-body psychology. My therapeutic approach is client-centered and lead by the assumption that all people have the innate ability to heal themselves when they are open to expanding self-aware so as to access their mind-body's natural tendency to move toward balance, integration, and adaptation. My therapeutic techniques range from EMDR, solution-focused CBT, art therapy, Hatha yoga breathing principles, mind-body relaxation techniques, and somatic

experiencing. Making the decision to reach out for help is an important first step on your healing journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
