About Lynn
Lynn Tijssen is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression, and relationship struggles. She addresses grief, sleep and eating concerns, parenting strain, anger, career questions, ADHD, and life transitions. Lynn practices in Maine and offers services in English, including to international clients.
Lynn uses a straightforward, interactive style that centers the individual. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her.
Background and approach
She listens without labels and works to help clients name problems and try practical steps forward. Her approach blends existential ideas with client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral tools. That mix helps people examine meaning, notice thought patterns, and build small skills for change.
Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing are added when they fit someone’s goals. Over two decades of experience inform her work. Lynn adapts methods to each person instead of using one rigid plan.
She aims to support people as they clarify values, make choices, and cope with difficult feelings. Practical details are part of the process. Sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
Costs vary by location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled based on availability.

Online support
How her approaches work online and in sessions
Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choices, and responsibility in life. It’s useful for those asking why things feel empty or for people facing big life transitions and grief. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and acceptance; sessions focus on what the person wants to explore and on building trust through a supportive relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior with practical exercises and small experiments that reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Lynn collaborates with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. Together they try strategies, notice what helps, and adjust the plan over time.
Online formats make that collaboration flexible. Video calls let the conversation feel most like an in-person session. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing written reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
