About Lynn
Lynn Anne Palmer is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) in New Hampshire with 40 years of experience. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and views each client as the expert on their life. Her work focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression.
She uses clear, straightforward conversation to help people make changes that matter day to day.
How Lynn works
Her approach draws on attachment ideas to understand relationship patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding. Lynn brings practical tools for common life problems such as abandonment worries, communication problems, and commitment issues.
She also addresses long-term concerns like chronic illness, caregiver stress, and aging-related challenges. Issues such as body image, eating and food-related concerns, and substance use are included when they affect a person’s well-being. Trauma work is part of her practice, and she integrates EMDR and emotionally-focused methods as needed to process painful experiences and strengthen emotional connection.
Sessions emphasize small, achievable steps and regular feedback so progress is clear. People can expect a respectful, steady presence and a focus on what they want to change. Lynn helps clients set goals and find practical ways to meet them, while acknowledging the real difficulty of making big life changes.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches that translate well online
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people see how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be used to identify those patterns and practice new ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; it works well through conversation, worksheets, and between-session tasks. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that can be adapted for remote sessions when needed and is used to process painful memories over a series of visits.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and try approaches that fit the problem and the client's comfort level. Over time they adjust methods based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper, interactive work, while phone can be a simpler check-in when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can help with short updates, homework, or when someone prefers written exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work between in-person appointments.
