About Lynn
Lynn Gordon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She uses a direct, supportive style to help people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and low self-esteem. Lynn aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful from the first meeting.
She draws on seven years of experience working with people facing substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns. Her background includes individual and group work in clinical settings, where she developed skills in addressing mood disorders, impulsivity, and challenges tied to chronic illness and pain.
How Lynn works
Lynn also helps people dealing with grief, life changes, and career-related stress. Her approach blends Client-Centered Therapy with practical techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support momentum and clearer choices.
Sessions are tailored to each person's needs rather than following a fixed script. Lynn offers multiple ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She recognizes that some people prefer to talk on the phone or message first, while others want video sessions for face-to-face contact.
The work typically focuses on building coping skills, improving communication, reducing substance use, and increasing self-compassion. Lynn helps people set realistic goals and practice new skills between sessions, keeping the emphasis on small, steady steps toward better daily functioning.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's perspective and priorities. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people set goals that matter to them. This approach helps with motivation, life changes, and building confidence.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into manageable steps and homework-based practice.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can help with impulsivity, emotional regulation, and patterns that fuel substance use.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try first, adjusting as goals and needs change. Treatment plans are flexible and reviewed together so sessions remain relevant.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging gives practical options for fitting care into busy lives. Video is helpful for face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, and when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and adapt sessions to daily schedules.
