Meet Lindsey Maykowski, LPC

My path to becoming a therapist began with a degree in psychology from Old Dominion University and continued with my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. I completed three years of supervised clinical practice before becoming a licensed professional counselor in 2017. Since then, I’ve continued to work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating a wide range of challenges.

Over more than a decade in the counseling field, my work has increasingly centered around OCD, anxiety, and trauma, areas I’m especially passionate about. I’ve seen how exhausting it can be to feel stuck in patterns of fear, avoidance, reassurance seeking, or overwhelming thoughts. I value helping clients understand what’s happening so they can feel less controlled by their symptoms.

My style is warm, straightforward, and collaborative. I don’t believe therapy should feel like you’re sitting across from someone who is simply telling you what to do. Instead, I want our work together to feel like a partnership where you can be honest, ask questions, challenge yourself, and build confidence along the way. Therapy can be uncomfortable at times, and I’ll be there to help you work through those uncomfortable moments while also making room for some laughter along the way.
