Hello and welcome to a safe, accepting space!

My name is Lynn Zima and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for 20+ years working with various ages and mental health concerns. I provide online therapy in Wisconsin, Missouri, and Minnesota because I enjoy helping people strengthen their own lives by reducing symptoms. I work with adults age 18 and up.

I try to create a warm, non-judgmental space to talk about your concerns. Wherever you are at is ok! We will start with giving you a space to talk about troublesome symptoms and how to empower yourself through using new skills to reduce anxiety, depression, irritability, sadness, loneliness, sleep issues, substance use, unwanted habits, etc.

My style is to be approachable, accepting, supportive, and act as a guide through the process of understanding your strengths and areas of need to feel better. The methods I use are primarily Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviora Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy for change, though also use other evidence-based treatments as needed.

• We will work together to identify the strengths you have and how I can help you reduce symptoms and grow through changing self-defeating thoughts, feelings, and behaviors which have taken you on unwanted journeys.

• Together, we will identify your goals, what the barriers are to moving forward, and develop mindfulness and other needed skills and techniques to navigate through or around those obstacles.

We are all human. At times we need help from an objective party to find how to journey above life’s distractions and struggles in order to grow stronger. I would be honored to talk with you about how I might help.
