Deborah Lynn Lemon, Licensed Professional Counselor

Lynn Lemon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 5 years of clinical experience working with adults in the mental health field. Lynn has experience working with people navigating anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive challenges (OCD), posttraumatic stress (PTSD), substance abuse, bipolar, and schizophrenia.

She received a Bachelor’s degree in psychology and a Master’s degree in professional counseling from Liberty University. Lynn’s therapeutic approach, although eclectic, is greatly influenced by psychodynamic theory. Each client comes to therapy with different needs, and Lynn collaborates with them to develop a unique treatment plan. She believes that in order to move forward, one must look within and to the past to uncover obstacles preventing change. cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is also used to assist clients in changing negative thought patterns, and exposure therapy is also used to help overcome avoidance of situations that cause anxiety. Lynn believes everyone has value and is capable of living the life they dream of. The environment a person is raised in greatly influences how they feel about themselves and interact with others. Unconscious patterns can play a role in one’s ability to make choices that move them from where they are to where they want to be. Identifying maladaptive automatic responses is key to growth and to living the life of one’s dreams.
