More about Lynette

  • 24 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

Welcome, my name is Lynette Wishart, MA, LCMFT/LMFT. I am a licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of Kansas, Missouri, and California. I began in the “people-helping” business almost three decades ago in non-profit organizations before receiving my clinical counseling licensure in 2008 and have since worked in settings like private practice, crisis response, military installations, school based, and academia. Some populations I have enjoyed working with include young adults/college age, military personnel and their families, pastors and faith-based issues, women, single moms, and couples. Being mindful that everyone has their own processing style so I try to personalize my approach to the individual or couple as each will approach engagement uniquely. Beginning with your personal goals, combined with Attachment Theory as a basis and a strengths-based mindset, I endeavor to utilize a good fit approach tailoring Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Psychodynamic, Solution-Focused, and Client Centered approaches. Harmonic balance is key to living not just a healthy life but a fulfilling life.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
