A tailored approach to therapy

Lynne’s approach integrates several therapeutic modalities to best support your unique goals:

Cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT)

A structured, evidence-based approach that focuses on reducing symptoms by identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy

A relational approach that builds psychological insight by exploring unconscious patterns, defenses, and relational dynamics.

Attachment-based psychotherapy

A therapy that examines and addresses relational patterns rooted in early life experiences with caregivers and attachment figures.
