Getting to know Gemma Lynch
I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker and EMDR-trained clinician who supports children, teens, and adults navigating complex trauma, PTSD, dissociative symptoms, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, stress, and other mental health challenges. With experience across private practice, community mental health, inpatient psychiatry, and correctional settings, I bring a grounded, steady presence to my work and am dedicated to providing trauma-informed, culturally responsive care.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My approach integrates evidence-based practices including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs and goals within a client-centered framework, helping individuals process difficult experiences, develop effective coping skills, and build resilience.
My style is collaborative, warm, and safety-oriented, with a strong focus on creating a secure environment where clients feel supported in exploring difficult emotions and experiences. I strive to help clients deepen self-understanding, foster healing, and move toward lasting emotional well-being.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
When you are ready to get started, schedule an initial assessment visit (intake) through Zocdoc. After you book an appointment, a care coordinator will reach out to review your method of payment and/or insurance number and answer any initial questions you may have before our first visit.
