About Lynn

Lynn Hedlund is a Washington-based licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 33 years of clinical experience helping people navigate a wide array of emotional and behavioral challenges.

Background and approach

She offers guidance for concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, trauma, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and issues with sleep, anger, intimacy, and self-esteem. Her work also addresses relationship struggles, communication problems, divorce and separation, and the isolation that can accompany life changes.

Her style blends empathy with evidence-informed methods to help clients gain clearer self-understanding and practical coping skills. Lynn draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tailor interventions to each person's needs, emphasizing healing from past hurts, resolving guilt and shame, and cultivating self-love and purpose.

She aims to create a respectful, collaborative environment where people can explore difficult feelings and build strategies for more satisfying daily life. Available to clients in Washington, Lynn supports those seeking both short-term problem-solving and deeper personal growth.

Her decades of experience inform a calm, steady presence focused on meaningful change and renewed connection to values and goals.

Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions aligned with personal values; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce panic, social anxiety, and mood symptoms. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist offers empathy and support to help clients explore their own solutions.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lynn works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current challenges. She adapts techniques from these approaches to match each person's pace and priorities rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access for people with busy schedules or limited local options. These formats allow clients to continue consistent work on stress, grief, ADHD-related concerns, relationships, and other areas from wherever they are located in Washington, while maintaining the collaborative therapeutic relationship that supports change.
