Lynnette Averill

PhD

“As a humanist, I believe it is critical to help individuals build and maximize their well-being and create lives they truly enjoy living, by embracing their value and agency, and focusing on areas of strength while identifying areas for growth. Clinically, I integrate principles of positive psychology with evidence-based treatments (especially in trauma-focused therapy), and I am a strong believer in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy when it is appropriate. Working with each client is a sacred experience for me, and I am honored to support each person as they make positive changes.”
