About Lindsey
Lindsey Hoffman is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who focuses on practical support for everyday challenges. She speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps toward help feel manageable for people feeling overwhelmed or unsure.
She has four years of social work experience and has spent much of that time supporting people with postpartum mood concerns, parenting struggles, family conflict, and major life transitions. She also has experience with people from military families and those in the LGBTQ+ community.
Background and approach
Lindsey centers sessions on listening first and meeting people where they are. In sessions she helps clients identify strengths and set concrete goals. Lindsey uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing alongside mindfulness and solution-focused ideas.
She adapts her approach to each person’s needs rather than following a single method. Her style is warm and straightforward. She aims to reduce shame and build practical skills for coping with anxiety, stress, grief, sleep or eating concerns, and challenges tied to parenting or caregiving.
Lindsey also supports people navigating ADHD-related struggles such as impulsivity, concentration, and daily routines. She works with adults dealing with relationship strain, career stress, social anxiety, or loss. Lindsey practices from Hawaii and holds the LCSW credential.
She conducts sessions in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
How Lindsey’s Approaches Work Online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday struggles because it gives clear steps to try between sessions.EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, helps people who carry distress from past events. It uses guided attention to reduce the intensity of upsetting memories and the strong feelings tied to them.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lindsey will talk with the client about goals, past experiences, and what feels most comfortable. Together they choose which tools to try, check progress, and adjust the plan as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video works well for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing reminders between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue work from different locations.
