Lynette Maggs
My name is Lynette Maggs and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida. I started my practice in a community mental health agency in the state of Florida gaining a wealth of knowledge and perspective of the scope of mental illness within our communities. This led me down the path to specialize in areas such as the welfare of children and families affected by trauma and its impact not only on the individual, the family but also the entire community. I have worked with families and individuals who have experienced anxiety, depression, abuse/neglect, parenting difficulties, addiction, stress, loss, and the day to day hurdles each of us face in life. I would describe my approach as empathetic, warm, goal oriented, and client centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral therapy, as well as Client Focused therapy as the basis to my therapeutic approach to help my clients set goals and objectives, work through their traumas, and feel empowered once they have met their goals. I earned my Bachelor Degree through attending universities in the eastern U.S as my family traveled with my husband in his Coast Guard career. My Master Degree from Liberty University, Virginia in Mental Health Counseling. I have been practicing in the field for the past 20 years with a wealth of training and experiences prior to this time. I believe humor is essential as we face our hurdles in life and this has been lent to me through the 36 years of marriage, a daughter and navigating this all through 20 years of military life.
Dr. Maxine Lebowitz
Even though I’ve been licensed both as a marriage and family therapist and a mental health counselor for over 30 years, it’s hard for me to define exactly what school of therapy I practice. My therapeutic style is a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with a lot of Neurolinguistics Programming in the mix. I am constantly studying new techniques and approaches because what will help you is most important knowledge I can have. Early on I was strongly influenced by Alfred Adler who was a contemporary of Freud. Adler believed that childhood experiences influence how we feel about ourselves and how we react to various situations. Like Adler my basic theory is that people are always moving from feeling not quite good enough to feeling significant, feeling we matter. We all need to feel significant to have the confidence, drive and energy to meet the world head on, knowing that we'll be successful. I’ll work with you like I do with my other clients to help you learn to access and nurture those traits within yourself that will make your life significant to you, help you live up to your values and, in some small way, make the world a better place. A person usually needs to feel good about themselves before making lasting changes. As a client you will know that I am in your corner. We’re going to be finding your strength, intelligence, compassion, and motivation that is already there inside you and help you learn how to use these qualities to make the changes you want to make. . Other clients describe me as a nurturing, empathetic, encouraging person. I hope that’s true. I do know that I promise to listen, really listen and hear what you are saying and help you make the changes you want to.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Reddick counselor?
Before seeing your Reddick therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns or feel unsure about what to talk about. Reddick therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.
Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Reddick licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Reddick counselor can be dependent on your process.
People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.
Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice.

Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
