Hi, I’m Lynne (IG: @kinkyqueerclinician), a licensed independent clinical social worker and supervisor. I’m a therapist, educator, social worker, and lifelong believer that people deserve spaces where they can show up as their whole selves, not just the parts that feel easy to explain. My professional passions center around working with people whose identities, relationships, or life experiences don’t always fit neatly into traditional boxes. I have a particular interest in LGBTQIA+ communities, neurodivergence, ethical non-monogamy, kink and alternative lifestyles, identity exploration, and the ways our relationships with ourselves and other people shape our mental health.

I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach to therapy. I don’t believe therapy should be about a therapist deciding who you should become. I’m interested in helping people better understand themselves, recognize their patterns, navigate difficult transitions, and make choices that actually fit the lives they want to live. Outside of therapy, I’m a HUGE LOVER of sunflowers, blue butterflies, musicals, traveling, candles, coloring books, and finding glimmers to make ordinary life feel more interesting. I love learning, teaching, having conversations that make people think, and creating spaces where people can be curious without immediately having to have all the answers.

I’m especially passionate about bringing authenticity into my work. Mental health doesn’t exist separately from the rest of our lives, so I’m interested in the whole person, their relationships, communities, identities, values, joys, challenges, and everything in between.
