Lyndsy Donnell (she/her)

As both a therapist and someone with ADHD myself, I understand the challenges of focus, organization, and emotional regulation. I work with kids, teens, and adults to create strategies that are practical and actually fit into real life. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming, meaning I don’t view ADHD as something “broken,” but as a different way of experiencing the world. Together we’ll build skills, confidence, and tools to help you thrive at school, work, and home.

Being Autistic myself, I know firsthand the strengths and struggles that can come with living in a world that isn’t always built for you. I specialize in supporting Autistic kids, teens, and adults in ways that honor their unique needs and communication styles. My approach is affirming, not focused on “fixing,” but on helping clients feel accepted and supported. I also work with parents and caregivers to better understand and advocate for their loved ones.

Grief is different for everyone, and there’s no “right way” to move through it. I provide a compassionate, judgment-free space where you can talk openly about loss, whether it’s the death of a loved one, the loss of health or ability, or big life changes that shift your sense of self. Together, we’ll honor your story while finding ways to carry your grief and still move forward. My goal is to help you feel seen, supported, and less alone in the process.

I use DBT skills to help clients manage big emotions, reduce stress, and build healthier coping tools. I often bring in mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation strategies in a way that feels practical and easy to use in daily life. My goal is to help you feel more in control of your emotions without losing your authenticity. DBT can be especially helpful for anxiety, trauma, and navigating relationships.

I don’t believe therapy should be one-size-fits-all. My eclectic approach means I pull from different evidence-based methods, like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, depending on what works best for you. Every client’s needs are unique, so I adapt my style to match your goals, values, and personality. This flexibility allows me to meet you where you’re at and create a plan that truly supports your growth.

At the core of my work is person-centered therapy, which means I see you as the expert of your own life. My role is to provide empathy, unconditional support, and a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings. I believe real growth happens when you feel understood and accepted as you are. This approach allows clients to feel empowered, build confidence, and move toward lasting change at their own pace.
