Great to meet you!

Hi clients! I'm Rikki Lyn- a trauma-informed expressive therapist. I try to offer a quirky, modern twist on traditional therapy. I currently hold certificate trainings in trauma-informed expressive arts, an LCSW for New Jersey, as a doctor of integrated behavioral healthcare. The short version is, I'll do my very best to have your back no matter what you're going through. You might even find your creative flare along the way.

My approach to therapy

I offer therapy with a supportive and warm approach. My clients can look forward to sessions that promote authenticity and honesty. I apply CBT, DBT, ACT, and TFCBT as general approaches, but I also offer eclectic multimodalities like the art to foster treatments as unique as the people I serve.

What you can expect from me

Walking away from a session with me, I hope every client of mine feels a sense of validation; that it's okay to feel however you need to. No matter what the situation might be, the goal is to help the weight of it all feel lighter. Clients can walk away feeling confident that their efforts have made growth happen.
