The decision to begin therapy can be challenging, you have just taken a courageous first step. I view therapy as a collaborative process, where clients are encouraged to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a supportive, nonjudgmental, and compassionate setting. Our work together will help you understand yourself in relation to the world around you and to your life experiences. I believe in mind/body connection and incorporate mindfulness into my practice. Research shows that empowering clients with stress management techniques and mindfulness practice helps decrease levels of stress and anxiety and improves quality of life. View 4 Photos My therapeutic style is empathetic, supportive, and direct. I incorporate humor and laughter whenever possible. I work most often treating symptoms related to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, substance use and life transitions and combine cognitive-behavioral, relational, mindfulness, Gottman (level 2) and psychodynamic approaches. I hope we can identify difficulties, think about where they have originated from, and learn coping skills to hopefully eradicate the difficulties you presented to therapy with. During treatment, I hope to facilitate growth and result in an overall healthier version of you.

I believe that a good therapist doesn't "fix" you, because no one really needs "fixing." My goal is to create a supportive environment to help you express yourself and learn the skills necessary to handle whatever life might throw your way. Whether you're experiencing depression, anxiety, or are just going through a rough time, there are a variety of strategies we can use to get you back to enjoying life. In my sessions, I like to utilize cognitive behavioral techniques to help you feel more confident in your ability to handle life's stressors. The ultimate goal is for you to feel confident in handling whatever life hands you. I enjoy helping people develop skills to better cope with their life circumstances. I have a passion for working with members of the LGBTQ+ community, survivors of trauma, and young adults trying to find their way. I also pride myself on the work that I've done with the trans community in helping people live their lives authentically. At some point, life is challenging for all of us. Through my work, I have been amazed at the difficult situations that people are able to overcome in order to have happy and healthy lives. To make counseling even more accessible, my sessions are being offered entirely via telehealth so you can conveniently meet with me from the comfort of your own home.

My ideal client is someone ready to go beyond just talking about problems, and instead, dive deep within themselves to heal. In my 12 years of clinical practice, I have observed that true and lasting healing must involve the mind. body, and soul. As a Yoga Therapy Teacher-in-Training, I believe that somatic work is crucial to deeper healing. I also emphasize the importance of meditation, mindfulness, and spirituality. In my office or virtually, I offer a safe space, an empathic heart, and a variety of brain-based, trauma-centered modalities. View 10 Photos EMDR and Brain Spotting are my two favorite modalities, and both can be done virtually. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and Consultant in Training (CIT). I am a Certified Brainspotting Therapist and working toward a specialized track in BSP and spirituality . Check out www.EMDRIA.org and www.Brainspotting.com for more info. I believe that in order to heal, people need to feel safe and supported. My healing style focuses on finding your internal strength, shedding old negative beliefs about yourself that no longer serve you. I bring creativity, flexibility, and positive empowering energy to all of my sessions and tailor the treatment to what will most benefit you.

The teenage years can be really tough on teens AND their parents. Changes happen that can throw their emotions on a rollercoaster -- sadness, worry or anger can take over. Friends can push a teen toward dangerous choices. Add on the stress of high school, early romantic relationships, working towards independence, and there are all sorts of places that a teenager can struggle. It takes a special sort of counselor to work with a teen. Someone who is serious and kind when they struggle, but keeps a sense of humor, wonder and joy that can connect with them past those struggles. Teenagers are learning to be adults. That presents a huge opportunity if we embrace it. Teenagers are more open to new ideas than many people realize. With the right guidance, they can enter adulthood with an amazing amount strength and understanding. I love helping teens and seeing that change. Your child and your family are worth it. Call me for a free phone consultation. I will talk with you about your struggle and how I can help. If your teen is struggling, don't wait and see if they find a way out. Let me help guide them.

Life is probably challenging right now, and it has brought you to a point where you are unsure of what to do. I work individually with children, adolescents, and adults (4 years - 40 years) with slight family counseling (if needed). I have worked with children and adolescents dealing with emotional and behavioral problems at school or home, conflict with guardians/siblings, bullying, low self-esteem, abuse, and self-harm. I have worked with adults dealing with challenges at home or with family, life stressors, anxiety, depression, emotional challenges, and school or career challenges. It is my first priority to create a safe and non-judgmental space (whether virtually or in-person) for you to feel comfortable with me in each session. I want us to have a collaborative space for you to express your wants and needs comfortably. We all need someone in our corner to help us with these difficulties and that is perfectly okay! I like to meet you where you are to help you get to where you want to be. I will help you create healthy relationships and boundaries, set and achieve goals, and feel like you have control again.

Does taking a break mean locking yourself in the house after a long day/week just to binge-watch Netflix, Hulu, YouTube or scroll Facebook, Instagram or TikTok? Do social situations leave you feeling “on-guard” or “out of place”? Feeling disconnected from friends, family, co-workers or even yourself? Pain (emotional, physical or psychological) is the one constant you count on each and every day. Your past continues to trigger sadness or anger, or you may not remember it at all. We help answer the questions "Where do I want to go in life?" - "Who do I want to go there with?" View 10 Photos If it hasn’t been said, "we are all created to live life, not struggle with relationships, abuse or careers," it should be! We believe experiences are moments you’ve had, but are not the things that define WHO you are. Those experiences, more importantly, hold the solution to get to the "best you”! Let us help you get there. You may read other sites that say they “provide a confidential, supportive and safe environment.” While we think that’s a great thing to hear, We want you to know we are offering a safe place (office) where you are allowed to vent, scream, cry and work through your unique issues without judgment or harassment.

Every one of us, at some point in our lives, encounters difficulty and hardship. At times, the challenges we find ourselves facing seem insurmountable. Perhaps you had a difficult and painful childhood that interferes with your ability to find happiness and comfort.

Or, are you struggling with unwelcome feelings and behaviors that impact your health, relationships, or career? Whatever obstacles you’re facing, therapy can be an invaluable and freeing experience.

Beginning or continuing therapy is not easy, especially when life already feels difficult. When your world is overwhelming or chaotic, numb or lifeless, I can help in addressing debilitating symptoms and finding ways to cope. At the same time, we can work together to identify unacknowledged emotions, fears, desires, and entrenched patterns so that you can form new ways of living with meaning and vitality. I aim to create a trusting, non-judgmental environment in which one feels safe enough to explore thoughts and feelings, to say whatever comes to mind. My experience includes working with people suffering from relationship conflicts, sexuality and identity, trauma, social isolation, job struggles, loneliness, immigration, eating issues, and substance use. We can look to the past to understand the present with the goal of creating reflective, long-lasting change in your lived experience. At Rose Hill Psychological Services, we accept many different types of insurance. Email or call to set up an initial appointment. Sean-Lynch.org
