About Lynne

Lynne Klaus is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of experience in mental health. She practices in South Carolina and works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes.

Lynne has spent decades working with a wide range of concerns. She has supported people dealing with substance use, grief and loss, and persistent low mood. Her experience also includes work related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, aging issues, caregiver stress, and body image concerns.

Her approach is practical and person-focused. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy among other methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy as the situation calls for.

Lynne aims to help people consider who they are and who they want to become. Sessions often involve talking through current problems, identifying patterns, and practicing small changes between meetings. She treats substance use concerns alongside mood and anxiety issues rather than separating them from day-to-day life.

People can expect a collaborative style that focuses on clear goals and step-by-step strategies. Lynne accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Lynne applies therapeutic approaches in online sessions

CBT helps people notice the thoughts and habits that keep them stuck. It breaks problems into small, manageable steps and teaches skills to respond differently to stress and anxiety. ACT focuses on values and committed action while making space for difficult thoughts and feelings that won’t go away. It is useful when people want clearer direction despite ongoing distress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connections affect trust and emotional responses, which can help with relationship and attachment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit the problem, and adjust the work as needed. Clients and the therapist decide together which strategies to practice between sessions.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow quicker check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people use quieter surroundings, choose whether to be on camera, or keep sessions to a shorter focused check-in when that suits the day.
