About me

I'm a licensed therapist in North Carolina and South Carolina with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. My work centers on helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, and addiction with compassion and skill.

I specialize in supporting women through a wide range of concerns—including postpartum and seasonal mood changes, pregnancy-related transitions, self-harm, panic attacks, and social anxiety. I also work with clients processing trauma, abuse, abandonment, and attachment difficulties, as well as those navigating major life transitions like divorce and workplace challenges.

My approach honors the unique identities and experiences my clients bring to our work together. I'm particularly committed to creating an affirming space for clients of color and those exploring multicultural concerns, prejudice, and discrimination. I believe in meeting you where you are and working collaboratively toward meaningful healing and self-discovery.

Whether you're seeking support for specific struggles or exploring deeper questions about purpose, self-love, and belonging, I'm here to walk alongside you with genuine care and professional expertise. Taking that first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to support your journey.

Lynn helps me prioritize my needs while holding me accountable. Whether it's my state of mind or relationships, she listens, asks questions and guides me to actions that are helpful and healthy.

Her expertise, experience, and perspective are helpful.

She was very good at figuring out my core issue, helped me realise it too. She helped me learn how to heal myself by understanding myself and self- care through handouts. I recommend her if you have relationship issues and depression.

I have searched for a therapist for many years and have never met one that felt like the right fit. I was at the point of giving up on therapy all together. Then BetterHelp connected me with Lynn, and I decided why not just try. Wow, I am glad I did. I feel SO comfortable with her! Her approach to therapy is amazing. I can not say enough good things. Lynn has been a game changer for me and my very complex mental health!

I appreciate Lynn Reed’s attentiveness and seemingly genuine interest in my thoughts and concerns. She listens without interrupting, and doesn’t make me feel rushed when the session time is nearing its conclusion. Also, a feeling of judgment is non-existent. I can speak openly and honestly about my challenges without feeling embarrassed or ashamed. Lynn Reed offers valuable suggestions and draws me out without being overly intrusive. She’s pleasant, kind, and I feel as though I’ve known her for a long time. I’m impressed by the way she follows up with worksheets for me to complete so as to have a better understanding of who I am and what I’m dealing with. Overall, thus far I’m completely satisfied and pleasantly surprised by the quality of BetterHelp therapist Lynn Reed. I highly recommend her.
