About Lindsay

Lindsay Key is a licensed counselor in Tennessee who focuses on helping adults facing addiction, depression, low self-esteem, and major life changes.

Background and approach

With 18 years of clinical experience and the LPC-MHSP credential, she works with people who feel overwhelmed, burned out, or uncertain about their next steps and seeks to guide them toward clearer thinking and more effective coping. Her style blends practical, evidence-informed techniques with a warm, client-centered stance.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, and incorporates elements of DBT and mindfulness to build emotional regulation and present-moment awareness. This combination aims to help clients reduce symptoms, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with their values and goals.

Clients can expect a collaborative process that values their strengths and preferences. Lindsay helps people navigate relationship struggles, workplace stress, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, process addictions, seasonal mood shifts, loneliness, and questions about life purpose.

She frames therapy as a step-by-step journey toward greater balance, self-understanding, and practical change.

Approaches for Online Change and Coping

Many clients benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. DBT offers skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can be useful for intense emotions, impulsive behaviors, and relationship challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lindsay works with each person to explore which methods align with their goals, preferences, and current needs, adjusting strategies as progress is made so therapy remains practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for working on skills, coaching, and recovery.
