About Lindsay
She most often supports individuals diagnosed with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, various personality disorders, or bipolar disorder. Lindsay has extensive training in trauma work, including childhood experiences such as physical, sexual, or emotional abuse, as well as adult trauma like sexual assault and domestic violence.
Her therapeutic stance is client-centered, open, and non-judgmental. She integrates cognitive behavioral techniques, rational emotive strategies, dialectical behavior skills, strength-based perspectives, and trauma-informed practices to help clients clarify goals and pursue meaningful change. In sessions, people identify their own objectives and Lindsay offers guidance, skill-building, and empathic support throughout the process.
She provides a supportive space for individuals, couples, and families to address mood and anxiety concerns, relationship difficulties, the impacts of trauma, and other life stressors, meeting each person with understanding and practical tools for change.
Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to change them. It is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and mood-related concerns and emphasizes concrete strategies for coping and problem solving. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills to help manage intense emotions and improve relationships. It can be helpful for people who struggle with overwhelming feelings or recurrent conflict in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a collaborative relationship in which the person directs the pace and focus of work; this approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and personal growth.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Lindsay DeMarlie works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend techniques to tailor care, and Lindsay uses this flexibility to match strategies to each situation.
Online therapy offers practical benefits in accessibility and scheduling. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow people to connect from home or other convenient locations, reduce travel time, and fit sessions around work, caregiving, or daily responsibilities. These options support continued progress by making regular sessions easier to attend and by offering multiple ways to engage in therapeutic work.
