About Lynette

Lynette Maggs is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida who built her early career in a community mental health agency. That setting exposed her to a broad range of mental health needs and shaped her focus on trauma's effects across individuals, families, and communities.

Background and approach

She has supported people managing anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, grief, parenting challenges, abuse and neglect, and other life stressors, and she lists ADHD among her areas of focus. Maggs frames her work as empathetic, warm, and goal oriented, centering clients in the therapeutic process.

Her training includes a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and a bachelor’s degree earned while moving with her family across the eastern U.S. She holds the Florida LMHC credential (FL LMHC MH7244) and brings three years of documented post-licensure experience to her practice.

Humor and genuine rapport are part of her style, informed by long-term family and military life experiences. She emphasizes collaborative goal setting and practical strategies so clients can work through trauma, improve coping, and move toward the outcomes they identify as meaningful.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Care



She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and developing practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Another core approach is client-focused therapy, which prioritizes the client's perspective and builds a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore goals and personal strengths. Both approaches help with trauma recovery, coping skills, and improving day-to-day functioning.

Choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic process, and she approaches that decision collaboratively. Together, the client and therapist review needs, preferences, and goals and then tailor techniques and pace to match what will be most helpful for the individual situation.

Online therapy sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible scheduling and access from varied locations. These formats can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity across geographic moves, and allow clients to engage in care in ways that match their comfort and practical needs.
