About Lindsay

Lindsay Mays is a licensed clinical social worker who brings five years of practice to her work with people seeking change. She holds LCSW and LISW-CP credentials and is based in South Carolina. Lindsay focuses on straightforward, practical support rather than jargon-filled explanations.

Her style is warm and client-centered. She listens first, and then helps people set small, doable goals. Lindsay uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help manage anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep problems.

How Lindsay works

She also addresses addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues like self-esteem, body image, and workplace stress. Lindsay draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take action that matters to them. She adds dialectical behavior therapy skills when emotional regulation and impulsivity are central concerns.

Existential perspectives are used when people are questioning meaning, purpose, or major life direction. People can expect a collaborative approach. Sessions focus on what is most pressing and practical tools that fit day-to-day life.

Lindsay helps clients practice new skills between sessions and checks in on what is working. She offers several online session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are scheduled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where clarity about values matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, sleep problems, and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication, which is helpful when impulsivity or intense emotions are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lindsay will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, concerns, and daily life. She adapts tools over time and checks in to see which techniques are helping and which need adjustment.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation when bandwidth permits, while phone sessions can be a good option when internet is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit quick exchanges or ongoing check-ins into a day. These formats let people access licensed professionals from different locations and choose what fits their routine and comfort level.
