Lindsey Lehtinen

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

“Most people benefit from having a place to talk openly and freely knowing that they can be themselves and will be valued, accepted and respected. Whether you are an adult or a parent bringing a child or teen I recognize that it takes a lot of courage to make a counseling appointment. I work to establish a warm therapeutic alliance with you or your child/teen so that the therapy room feels like a safe place.

It is my goal to meet each client where they are spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically in order to guide them in the therapeutic process. I believe that our identity and hope is found in Jesus Christ and that it is only through him that we can be fully restored. I integrate evidence based treatment approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused-CBT, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Solution-Focused and Emotion-Focused Therapy. I will work to understand how you experience the world around you and will do my best to empower you to believe the truth of your inherent worth and value. I look forward to meeting you!”
