About Lawrence
Lawrence Flynn is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of experience. He works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family issues, trauma, intimacy-related difficulties, parenting challenges, anger, career concerns, and coaching needs.
Flynn uses straightforward, practical conversations to identify what is most pressing. He draws on client-centered methods to focus on each person’s goals and strengths. Sessions aim to be goal-oriented, with clear steps for coping and change.
His work blends approaches such as solution-focused techniques, cognitive strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. That mix is used to help people with daily routines, problem solving, and changing unhelpful patterns. He also addresses long-term concerns such as caregiving stress, chronic illness, aging issues, attachment questions, and substance-related problems.
Over his career he has provided behavioral health, addiction, crisis management, and wellness services, alongside resiliency coaching and mentoring for individuals and managers. Flynn frames interventions around practical skills, short-term goals, and realistic next steps. He asks clients to try small experiments between meetings and to track what changes help.

BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening to the person and building treatment around their goals. It helps clarify what matters most and uses the client’s strengths to guide next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and unhelpful thinking patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication. It can be useful for strong emotions, relationship strain, and impulse-related concerns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and lifestyle. That may mean trying different techniques and adjusting the plan based on what works in daily life.
Confirm available session formats before booking since the profile does not list them here. Many people find remote options help them fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules. Practical benefits include easier scheduling, shorter check-ins when needed, and the ability to continue work on skills between meetings.
