About Lindsay
Lindsay Mays is a licensed clinical social worker who brings five years of practical experience to her work. She works from a straightforward, supportive stance and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, mood concerns, and relationship or identity questions. Her approach aims to be calm and steady when life feels overwhelming.
Before becoming a therapist she studied psychology and social work and then moved into clinical practice. Lindsay uses clear, evidence-informed tools drawn from several therapeutic approaches to help clients build coping skills.
Background and approach
She prioritizes listening first, then helping people choose steps that feel manageable. Sessions emphasize real-world skills, with time spent on breathing and grounding exercises, practical thought-work, and goal setting. Lindsay helps people work through common struggles such as sleep problems, anger, workplace stress, and challenges around intimacy or self-worth.
She also supports recovery from drug and alcohol addiction and addresses codependency and communication problems. Her style blends client-centered listening with strategies from cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based therapies. That means clients get both steady support and concrete tools to try between sessions.
The aim is to make change feel doable instead of overwhelming. Lindsay practices in South Carolina and conducts sessions in English. She works with adults on concerns such as depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and young adult issues.
People who want practical steps and a collaborative plan often find her approach helpful.
How Lindsay’s Approaches Work Online
ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through concrete exercises and experiments, which often helps with worry, sleep issues, and mood shifts. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, accepting relationship where the person guides the pace and topics; this approach supports building trust and self-exploration.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Lindsay will collaborate with each person to identify goals and try techniques that fit their needs and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan based on real progress and feedback.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow full conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simpler to check in between sessions or fit brief check-ins into a busy day. These options let people keep therapy consistent around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
