Her background includes a doctorate in counseling plus both LMFT and LCSW licensure in Texas. Over four decades she has helped people with a wide range of issues, from chronic illness and aging concerns to grief, trauma, and addiction-related problems. Clients can expect focused conversations about problems and concrete strategies to try between sessions.
Practical matters like scheduling, session length, and subscription-based fees are handled through the platform intake process. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment to begin.
How CBT, DBT, and practical online work operate together
Dr. Lennox draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral changes. CBT focuses on clear steps - identifying specific thoughts, trying an alternative response, and reviewing what changed - and is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are needed. DBT-style work teaches concrete tools for managing intense feelings, reducing impulsive reactions, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Early sessions focus on the problems you want to solve and the methods that fit your preferences. She will suggest specific skills to try and adjust the plan based on what helps you meet your goals.
Confirm the platform's session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, allow shorter check-ins if needed, and remove travel time. The practical aim is to help clients practice new skills between meetings and bring what they learn into ordinary routines.
