About Lindsey

Lindsey Vining is an LCSW (Licensed Certified Social Worker) with 15 years of clinical experience in Mississippi. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and parenting concerns. Lindsey also supports people dealing with career changes, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Her background includes work in inpatient and outpatient settings, crisis and emergency shelters, community mental health, and medical clinics. She has worked with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, and with people experiencing serious mental health challenges and homelessness. That range guides how she sees practical needs and safety in treatment.

Lindsey’s style is direct and motivating. She uses humor and optimism alongside clear feedback. Sessions focus on concrete steps and skills rather than long interpretations. Clients can expect straightforward discussion of what is and isn’t working in daily life.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and person-centered ideas, combined with solution-focused techniques and motivational interviewing. That mix is aimed at noticing thoughts and habits, testing small changes, and tracking results over time. Lindsey adapts plans based on what a person wants to accomplish.

Her approach emphasizes respect and nonjudgmental listening. She aims to work with each person’s practical constraints, such as schedule or caregiving demands, and to set goals that fit real life.

How Lindsey’s approaches work in online sessions

Lindsey uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral changes. CBT focuses on practical exercises and homework that can be tracked between sessions, which is useful for problems like anxiety, depression, and stress.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and commit to actions that matter, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences affect current connections.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Lindsey will discuss goals, preferences, and daily life constraints to decide which methods to emphasize. That decision can shift as progress is tracked and new needs appear.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow focused homework review during a check-in. Some formats may be better for short check-ins while others suit longer skill-building sessions, and Lindsey will help match the format to the work requested.
