Lindsey Vining, MSW, LCSW

About Lindsey Vining

I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker (LCSW), with over 15 years experience providing therapeutic services to adults, adolescents and children. I have worked with individuals in a variety of settings, including inpatient and outpatient settings, crisis and emergency shelter services, community mental health, and medical clinics. I have worked with persons who have been victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, serious mental health issues and homelessness, among others. My therapy style is motivating and supportive, but direct, while using humor and optimism to develop an effective therapeutic rapport to bring about change. My theoretical orientations primarily used are person-centered and cognitive-behavioral. My approach combines Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. I will tailor our time together and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I have a commitment to quality and compassionate mental health services. I pride myself on being non-biased and non-judgemental. ON THE FENCE ABOUT THERAPY? It's very common to feel apprehensive or even afraid to initiate therapy. It takes a lot to ask for help, and you may not be ready to "face a live person." Consider booking a live chat for your first session! (I recommend 45 minute sessions for live chat.) I ALWAYS make every effort to accommodate your schedule and/or time zone. If my current availability does not work with your schedule, please message me directly. I'm happy to try my best to make specific accommodations for you! It takes incredible courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. Please note that I diligently check your messages daily, other than Wednesdays and Sundays, as these days are reserved for family and worship. I look forward to working with you!
