Get to know Lynn
Why did you choose to practice at Thriveworks?
I've known since I knew I wanted to be a therapist, & had it confirmed during my pre-doctoral internship at a college counseling center, that my favorite practice is individual therapy with clients. Thriveworks has enabled me to focus on that exclusively, without having to worry about most of the administrative tasks that I'm not interested in.
What can clients expect in their first session with you?
I'm not going to grill new clients with exhaustive questions about their whole lives to date. I want to know what concerns you most on the day you meet me - what brings you to therapy, what is the information you want me to have right away. I trust in the process that we will absolutely get to all the key details eventually. I will certainly ask plenty of questions, because I'm endlessly curious about people and their stories, but I know we won't get to everything in our first session, and that's ok. I also make an effort to help my clients find the hope - I want my clients to know that I want to work with them and that I believe we can work to make things better, together.
