About Lyn
Lyn Cassin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Indiana who brings 14 years of clinical experience to her practice. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with acceptance-oriented and attachment-informed approaches to help people manage anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and other life stresses.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with adults confronting loss, abuse, panic, and substance concerns, and she blends evidence-informed techniques with strengths-based perspectives to tailor care to each person. Lyn trained in social work and transitioned into clinical therapy after earning her MSW, building a practice that emphasizes practical skills and emotional understanding.
She integrates elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and client-centered engagement to address issues such as relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem, grief, bipolar mood challenges, and parenting or family stressors. Her approach aims to help clients develop coping strategies, clarify values, and improve communication while attending to the effects of trauma and loss.
Clients work with Lyn through structured interventions and collaborative problem solving that respect individual goals and pacing. She offers multiple formats for sessions and encourages people seeking support for life transitions, chronic stress, or addictive patterns to explore a tailored treatment plan that fits their needs.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them through practical exercises and behavioral experiments, which can help with anxiety, depression, and patterns related to addiction or stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to meaningful actions, useful for coping with chronic problems and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current connection patterns and can help when relationship difficulties, intimacy issues, or unresolved loss are central concerns.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to assess goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then combine elements of CBT, ACT, DBT, and client-centered work to create a personalized plan that fits each person's needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care across everyday demands. These formats allow licensed professionals to use skills training, values work, and attachment-focused interventions in ways that adapt to each client's pace and preferred communication style.
