About Lindsey
Lindsey Khan is a licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem struggles. She practices in Illinois and focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. Lindsey aims to build a calm, straightforward space where people can talk about what matters most to them.
Her work often centers on life transitions and workplace challenges. She helps people who have ADHD or impulsivity issues find clearer routines and better coping skills.
How Lindsey works
She also supports those dealing with addictions, bipolar symptoms, social anxiety, and questions about life purpose. Lindsey uses several therapy methods to match how a person prefers to work. She blends approaches that teach new skills with ones that help people notice and accept difficult emotions.
Sessions move at a pace set by the client and focus on usable strategies rather than long explanations. She pays attention to identity and values and offers an affirming environment for LGBT clients and others seeking a progressive approach. Lindsey aims to help people build resilience, improve relationships, and manage anger or codependency patterns that get in the way of daily life.
People can expect a collaborative tone in sessions and clear goals for change. Lindsey helps clients track progress and adjust strategies if something is not working. Her goal is to leave people better equipped to handle common stressors and to pursue a more meaningful, manageable life.

Online support options
How Lindsey’s approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while focusing on what matters most. It is useful for long-standing anxiety, depression, and questions about life purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful reactions; it often helps with panic, low mood, and social anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, trains emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills for people who struggle with intense emotions or impulsivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lindsey will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so the plan fits what helps you most, and she involves you in deciding which steps to take.
Online sessions can fit into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and feedback. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share notes, use writing to process between sessions, and check in without scheduling a full call. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and practical for everyday life.
