Lynne Klaus

Lynne Klaus is a licensed clinical social worker who brings 25 years of experience to her practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, trauma, grief, and major life changes. Lynne writes in a straightforward way and aims to make therapy feel manageable for someone already worn down by worry.

Her work focuses on helping people reconnect with what matters to them and find practical ways to feel steadier. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and attachment-based ideas to guide conversations. Sessions are collaborative and paced to match each person’s needs.

Lynne has worked across many settings and with a wide range of life challenges. That background includes supporting people who are confronting illness, caregiving stress, or end-of-life questions. She draws on this experience to help people sort through grief, choices, and difficult conversations.

In sessions she helps people identify values, build small habits, and practice new ways of responding to hard feelings. She also addresses patterns that keep people stuck, like avoidance or unhealthy coping with substances. The goal is clearer thinking and steadier daily routines that make life more livable.

People who choose her can expect a calm, direct approach and a focus on practical steps. She encourages curiosity about how old patterns started and gentle work toward change over time.

Approaches that adapt to online counseling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful actions toward those values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck when life changes threaten routines.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and then practice new, more helpful responses. This approach is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and patterns that maintain distress.

Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns and how early connection styles show up now. This is often helpful for people coping with grief, caregiver stress, or difficulties trusting others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. That collaborative process allows techniques to be adjusted over time based on what helps most.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm which formats are currently offered before you book since the profile does not list them. Many people find online work easier to fit into a busy day, quicker to schedule around clinic or work commitments, and useful when follow-up check-ins are needed between in-person visits. Some formats may also make shorter, focused skill practice or weekly check-ins simpler to manage in everyday life.
