Lyn Pierce, LPC
(She/Her) |
Counselor:
Adults, Couples
Lyn works primarily with adults and couples, providing a therapeutic atmosphere of unconditional acceptance. While helping her clients explore and clarify their own perceptions of themselves and their relationships, her ultimate goal is to support the development of a better toolset for self-esteem, empathy, and effective communication.
Her practice emphasizes humanistic and client-centered counseling, but also draws techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices. As her background includes experience in both the arts and the computer tech field, Lyn is drawn to both “left-brained” (analytical) and “right-brained” (intuitive/emotional) thinking patterns, and enjoys working with both. Lyn is clinically skilled in addressing issues related to anger and stress management, anxiety, grief, and depression. She is experienced in working with neurodiverse individuals, including those on the autism spectrum, as well as LGBTQ+, LGBTQ+ couples, and polyamorous clients. She particularly enjoys seeing “neuro-mixed” couples, where one partner is neurotypical and the other has ADHD or is on the spectrum.
Lyn believes that people do the best they can with the tools and perceptions that they have at any given time. If a behavior or a relationship is not working well, she helps clients to discover and examine the thoughts and emotions that are leading to the dysfunction. Lyn is an empathic therapist and honors the strengths and uniqueness of each individual.
