About Lindsay

Lindsay Scoffil is a Florida licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the challenges of coping with life changes. She supports people working through trauma and abuse, addiction struggles, grief, and issues with self-esteem or mood. Lindsay speaks English and brings seven years of experience to her work. Lindsay treats each person as the expert on their own life. She helps clients notice their strengths and use those strengths to manage painful feelings and difficult decisions. Conversations are practical and direct, aimed at small changes that make daily life easier. Her approach blends evidence-informed methods to match what a person needs in the moment. Lindsay uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts, and from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based ideas when relationships and meaning are central concerns. Sessions focus on clear goals such as reducing panic, improving sleep, managing cravings, or rebuilding trust after hurt. Lindsay offers straightforward coaching-style guidance alongside therapy work, depending on what someone prefers. People working with major life shifts, parenting stress, career transitions, or identity questions will find a practical, steady style. Lindsay encourages small experiments, honest feedback, and plans that fit everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and how online work can help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small, values-based steps even when strong feelings are present. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems like low mood, panic, or sleep disruption going. It is practical and skill-focused. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions, coping with urges, and improving communication when relationships feel volatile.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lindsay will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then use one or more methods to fit those needs. This is a collaborative process with room to try different strategies and adjust them over time.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm which online options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and let people access help without travel time. Licensed professionals can still teach skills, run behavioral experiments, and guide values-based goal setting effectively through remote sessions when those formats are arranged.
