Lyons Insight Consulting and Counseling

With over a decade of experience in human services, I blend expertise in Brain Spotting with Cognitive Behavioral, Schema, Brief Psychodynamic, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapies. I specialize in serving the LGBTQIA+, Disabilities, Substance use, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, and neurodivergent communities, focusing on the distinct experiences and challenges these groups encounter. My practice is rooted in inclusivity, offering customized support to foster resilience, self-acceptance, and growth. I imbue my work with an existential understanding of human suffering, exploring profound existential questions and helping clients find meaning amidst life's challenges. I aim provide affirmative therapy for individuals and couples who are looking to explore their identities in a non-judgmental, trauma-informed space. In my therapeutic work, I delve into past experiences to comprehend present behaviors and increase awareness, aiming to reshape deep-seated patterns within a nurturing therapeutic relationship. This empowers my clients to take agency and enact meaningful changes in their lives. As a mental health counselor, my primary motive is to gently guide those I serve towards a life imbued with greater meaning and fulfillment. Together, we embark on a journey towards self-harmony, enriched family connections, and a deeper sense of belonging within our communities. In my practice, I employ Schema and Brief Psychodynamic therapies to help clients identify and alter ingrained patterns, fostering lasting shifts in their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This approach is designed to enhance self-awareness and facilitate emotional healing. There is a profound dignity and worth in persisting, even in the face of life's inherent suffering and difficulties; my approach is anchored in fostering a safe, validating, empathetic space where individuals and couples can uncover their own unique paths to healing and growth by creating meaning out of their experiences.
