I am licensed in Maryland with 23 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse in individual modality, & career difficulties. I work primarily with married couples, providing both premarital and post-marital services in a specific protocol. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am glad you are getting started! The purpose of my services is to provide counseling and treatment, however I am unable to provide services of disability related, as I am not trained, certified nor an expert in this area. As a final note, please understand that if you are driving a vehicle and not parked, sitting in a public restaurant or other public area, or using alcohol or other substances during our session and possibility you may be charged for a missed appointment, I will respectfully request for your session to be rescheduled. Further, I request for individuals and couples to strive to use headphones that are not Bluetooth, but are wired, for your protection of your privacy. On a note of clarification, as this format is not conducive to certain issues, this provider will refer to either another provider or a higher level of care. For example, if there is any emotional, physical/DV, sexual or financial abuse, high conflict or fights, which includes any potentiality of violence. On this forum I offer Brief Solution Focused Therapy and not long term therapy. If a couple is trying to determine whether or not to continue the relationship or marriage, this is better served with a different type of service, perhaps mediation, chaplain services, or even an individual modality. As this may be against the Code of Ethics, this provider cannot assist with determining whether to continue a relationship or marriage. Thank you, in advance, for understanding the nature of my services and for sharing your journey with me.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Lynn Duffy. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Great experience thus far. I’ve only had one session but feel confident that I will get the help I need.
