Lynette Pitre, LPC

Lynette Pitre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who uses practical, hands-on methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, and major life shifts. She focuses on clear, real-world strategies so clients can make changes that fit their daily lives.

With ten years of experience, Lynette works with adults facing depression, grief, anger, sleep problems, parenting strain, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also helps those coping with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, postpartum depression, panic, and social anxiety. Her work includes support for aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, and end-of-life challenges.

Lynette blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered and existential ideas. Sessions usually involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing practical changes, and finding meaning in difficult moments. She uses mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to build short-term skills and long-term coping tools.

Her style is direct but warm. She aims for sessions that are simple to understand and easy to put into practice. Clients often leave with concrete steps to try between meetings.

People who prefer working with a therapist who values both practical change and exploration may find her approach helpful. Communication is straightforward, and goals are set together so progress can be tracked over time.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Many online appointments with Lynette use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on noticing thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. CBT is hands-on and works well for stress, panic, sleep problems, and mood swings.

She also uses client-centered methods that emphasize listening and reflection, helping people feel heard while they make choices about what to change. Existential ideas are brought in when clients want to look at meaning, values, and larger life questions during sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lynette will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Decisions about technique are collaborative and can shift as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can fit short check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep contact between sessions when needed.
