About Lynn
Lynn Lemon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 5 years of clinical experience working with adults in the mental health field. Lynn has experience with individuals diagnosed with anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, substance abuse disorder, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.
She received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. Lynn’s therapeutic approach, although eclectic, is greatly influenced by Psychodynamic theory. Each client comes to therapy with different needs and Lynn collaborates with them developing a unique treatment plan.
She believes in order to move forward one must look within and to the past to uncover obstacles preventing change. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is also used to assist the client in changing negative thought patterns and exposure therapy is also used to overcome the avoidance of situations causing anxiety.
Lynn believes everyone has value and is capable of living the life they dream of. The environment that one is raised in greatly influences how one feels about themselves and interacts with others. There are unconscious patterns that play a role in one’s ability to make choices that will take them from where they are, to where they want to be. To identify the maladaptive automatic responses is the key to growth and to live the life of ones dreams.

"As an adult child of alcoholic parents, with over two decades of sobriety, I understand the insanity and struggle of addiction. "
Get to know Lynn
Why did you decide to become a counselor?
My journey to become a counselor started when I was a CASA volunteer. I wanted to volunteer in a safe haven home with children who had been sexually trafficked, and to do so I had to have a degree. I had never been to college, so at the age of 40 I began a new chapter in my life.
What type of clients are you most excited to work with?
I am excited to work with clients who have a personality disorder because they are in my opinion the most misunderstood. Individuals with a personality disorder are created, they are not born that way.
What’s one thing you wish all clients knew?
That no matter who hurt them, they can take their power back.
What do you want to accomplish with an individual in their first session?
Hopefully, I just want my potential client to know that I am a safe person for them to talk to, and this process and how it goes, is up to them! The work is hard and I know it's not easy to take the first step sometimes. I hope that at the end of an initial session, there is some feelings of pride and optimism.
What do you do for fun/on your time off?
I really enjoy spending time with my family, playing sports such as soccer or volleyball, traveling, going to a concert or show, or just relaxing and catching up with friends! Some days also just call for a good nap and some Netflix!
