About Lyn
Lyn Cassin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in Indiana. She brings 14 years of experience in mental health and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and trauma. She aims to create a calm space where clients can talk and be heard without judgment.
Her work grew from a Bachelor of Social Work and a Master of Social Work completed in 2006 and 2012 respectively.
Background and approach
Over more than a decade she has supported adults facing panic, loss, substance concerns, and long-term mood struggles. She draws on several therapeutic approaches to match the needs of each person. In sessions she helps people identify thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of feeling better.
She also supports people in building new coping skills for anger, relationships, intimacy concerns, and parenting stress. Practical strategies and clear steps are used alongside space for clients to tell their story. Lyn pays attention to the lasting effects of trauma and to how attachment and relationships shape daily life.
She works with issues such as abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and blended family stress. Her goal is to help people find manageable ways to move forward. Therapy is offered in several online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.
Sessions are conducted in English for people located in Indiana and follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How approaches like ACT and CBT work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. Online ACT sessions help people who feel stuck move toward things that matter to them while learning to handle difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT online is useful for anxiety, panic, and low mood because it emphasizes short exercises and real-life practice.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose or combine strategies so sessions fit the person's needs and preferences rather than applying a single method by default.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging can work for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day. These options make scheduling more flexible and allow therapy to fit into everyday life.
