Lynn Tijssen, LCPC

Lynn Tijssen is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 21 years of clinical experience working with adults facing a wide range of concerns. She focuses on trauma, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and family challenges, grief, self-esteem and intimacy-related issues, as well as sleep and eating difficulties. Her practice also addresses ADHD, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, postpartum depression, personality disorders, and other life transitions that can affect functioning and well-being.

Lynn favors an interactive, respectful, and compassionate style that avoids stigmatizing labels and centers each person’s strengths and choices. She draws from evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered approaches, existential and mindfulness therapies, motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused techniques to tailor treatment to each individual’s goals and circumstances. Sessions are oriented toward helping clients clarify values, build coping skills, and pursue greater meaning and contentment in daily life.

With experience across clinical and coaching-related concerns, Lynn supports people coping with career and caregiving stresses, substance use and codependency, isolation and midlife transitions, hospice and end-of-life issues, and compassion fatigue. She works in English and is based in Maine, offering support to both local and international clients. Lynn emphasizes collaboration and practical steps, helping clients move toward improved functioning and a fuller sense of purpose.
