Lynne Finger, LCSW

Lynne Finger is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina who brings 25 years of experience supporting adults through difficult life transitions, mood and anxiety disorders, relationship struggles, and trauma. She combines a warm, down-to-earth presence with clinical training to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to take the first step toward change. Lynne emphasizes that reinvention is possible at any stage of life and offers a steady, nonjudgmental space to explore emotions such as loneliness, grief, anger, and depression while working toward greater balance and well-being.

She holds a Master of Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a concentration in adult mental health and psychopathology, and she is licensed in North Carolina as an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has advanced training in psychotherapy (License C002591). Lynne is a member of the National Association of Social Workers and the American Psychotherapy Association, and she is certified in Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy. Her clinical experience includes treating serious mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-related concerns, and challenges tied to life changes such as divorce, retirement adjustment, and caregiving.

Practicing with a primarily psychodynamic orientation, Lynne also adapts a flexible, collaborative approach and integrates structured techniques when clients need focused strategies for immediate goals. She aims to help clients build healthier relationships, process past hurts, strengthen self-acceptance and confidence, and develop practical coping skills. Lynne invites those ready for guidance to begin a compassionate therapeutic journey toward clearer direction and greater self-care.
