Lynne Peters, LCPC

Lynne Peters is an LCPC who helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She writes in plain terms and focuses on making therapy practical and approachable for people feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

She brings 13 years of experience in a range of settings. That background means she is familiar with common life stresses such as caregiver strain, blended family issues, divorce and separation, and challenges tied to first responder work. Lynne also addresses patterns like codependency, control issues, and problems stemming from family of origin or abandonment.

In sessions she uses a mix of methods to fit each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping. Client-centered work keeps the person’s goals front and center.

Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. She talks through what change looks like, sets small steps, and checks progress along the way. Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing are added when they match a client’s goals.

Located in Maryland, Lynne works with adults on a range of concerns, including drug and alcohol addiction and trauma-related issues. Sessions are scheduled through the site; readers should confirm current session options before booking.

How Lynne’s approaches translate to online work

Client-centered work focuses on the person’s needs and goals. In this approach the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead to set priorities and plan small, doable steps. It helps when someone wants to feel heard and also make concrete changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice patterns of thinking that fuel anxiety, depression, or substance use. Online sessions can include simple worksheets, behavioral experiments, and homework to try between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping during stressful moments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative process means treatment can shift as needs change.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Ask which meeting options are offered and what will fit your routine. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so clients can focus on skill practice and steady progress.
