Who You Work With Matters
Kaitlyn Lynch, LPC, LMHC
Welcome!
I’m Kaitlyn Lynch, a licensed psychotherapist in Connecticut and New York State, and most importantly, a mother to two young girls.
With over a decade of experience providing innovative clinical services to families in Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Queens, I’ve honed my expertise using therapeutic models like CBT, EMDR, BSFT, and DBT.
My background as a former New York City educator has shaped my holistic approach to therapy, where I view the family as a complete system and value each individual’s unique role in its functioning.
Now, in my private practice in Westport, CT, I continue to offer therapy for children, adults, and families, helping them navigate the complexities of life with evidence-based interventions that lead to sustainable change.
My Mission
My mission is simple: to empower you to thrive, not just survive. I’m here to support you in building the confidence to face daily challenges, to nurture your mental health, and to foster meaningful connections with your loved ones.
We all deserve to feel secure and connected in our roles, and I’m excited to walk alongside you on this journey.
My Passions
In addition to individual and family therapy, my life’s experience has led me down some very distinct paths.
Supporting New Moms
My journey as both a therapist and a mom has led me to develop a deep passion for supporting women during the crucial stages of early motherhood. I’ve seen and lived the challenges that mothers face—juggling expectations, managing family dynamics, and dealing with the day-to-day pressures of parenting.
I know firsthand how overwhelming and unexpected this phase of life can be, which is why I created the Calm Mama Program and the Calm Collective Community—to offer the guidance and support I believe every mother deserves. It’s my goal to help women feel more prepared, supported, and confident in their roles as mothers.
I believe in staying present and intentional, and I strive to help mothers create the balanced family life they envision, free from guilt and societal pressures.
Supporting Families
I’m also passionate about teaching Emotionally Strategic Parenting to help parents foster healthy, adaptive communication with their children. My focus is on facilitating positive interactions, reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety, and building strong, resilient families.
I’m committed to the idea that emotionally healthy individuals and families are the foundation of a strong community.
Working With Children
I realized early on that I really enjoyed working with children. In fact, I was certified as an early childhood teacher as a high school student. Working as a teacher helped me realize the amount of trauma children experience at such a young age, but I was inspired to do more. So I went back to school and got my degree in mental health counseling.
Building Teams
From coaching sports to launching and developing new therapeutic programs and teams in NYC, when I work with people, I am always thinking about working as a team and developing the team around you.
