About Lindsay
Lindsay Key offers calm, practical support for adults who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck. She welcomes people struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, or big life changes. Her aim is to help people find clearer direction and build manageable coping skills.
Lindsay is a Licensed Professional Counselor with Mental Health Service Provider designation - LPC-MHSP. She brings 18 years of experience helping people untangle worries, mood struggles, obsessive thoughts, and workplace stress.
How Lindsay works
Sessions focus on small, usable steps rather than vague promises of change. Her style is warm and straightforward. She listens first, then helps people set goals that fit their values and daily life.
Practical tools and yes-or-no experiments are common parts of her approach so progress can be noticed between sessions. Therapy topics Lindsay addresses include process and substance addictions, panic and mood disorders, seasonal mood changes, body image and self-love, codependency and attachment concerns, and social anxiety. She also supports people navigating emptiness, isolation, and searching for life purpose.
She uses techniques from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness. These methods are mixed to match what each person needs. The overall focus is on building skills, improving self-understanding, and increasing resilience.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting connection so goals come from what matters to the person. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clearer self-understanding, and support setting personal priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, obsessions, and workplace stress because it breaks problems into manageable parts.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. These tools can help with strong mood swings, feelings of emptiness, or patterns of codependency and impulsive behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and tailor techniques to a person's goals, needs, and preferences. Clients and therapist decide together what to try and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face dialogue, phone can fit a short break, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats help people access consistent care around work and family commitments or when travel is difficult.
