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 EMDR therapist, I specialize in helping individuals to unlock their natural ability to heal. Using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, I facilitate a gentle yet powerful process that it's not about erasing the past, but allowing you to finally reclaim your present and future.

My clinical experience includes over 19 years working across short and long-term treatment, intensive in-home counseling, telehealth, psychiatric hospitals, law enforcement, community-based settings, military and multicultural communities. I earned a bachelor's in Social Work from Universidad Interamericana de Puerto Rico and a master's in both Mental Health Counseling and Business Administration from the University of Phoenix.

We all go through life changes and challenges — bright days and dark days, ups and downs. I understand that taking the first step toward healing can be daunting, but it's a step worth taking. Together, we'll create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express your deepest emotions and confront your innermost fears. By working collaboratively, we'll unlock the strength and resilience that lies within you, allowing you to rewrite your story and pave a path toward lasting peace and fulfillment. You deserve to live a life free from the shadows of trauma and anxiety. It's time to embrace a future filled with hope, purpose, and joy. Schedule a session today, and let's walk the path of healing together.

I am an LPC with over 4 years of experience and 10 years of experience in nursing. I have a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. Through counseling and nursing, I have cared for people with mental health issues, including PTSD, addictions, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, dementia, Alzheimer’s, and palliative and hospice care. I have lived in many European and Middle Eastern countries, which means I have interacted with a wide variety of cultures and ethnicities. As a result, I understand that everyone has varying beliefs and values and appreciate that uniqueness.

I am the wife of an Army veteran, and everyone in my family has served in the military. As a result, I am skilled at handling stressful situations, especially trauma and PTSD. I am certified in EMDR therapy. My personal experiences, combined with my professional trauma training, enable me to provide the support that my clients need.

Tough times are usually only here for a season, but you can overcome these difficulties because you have an ally in me. We can work together, at your own pace, to manage your concerns and find solutions that align with your goals. I look forward to collaborating with you as you take this significant step toward growth and healing.
