About Lindsay
Lindsay Van Gorder is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Arizona. She brings 11 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and addiction concerns. Lindsay aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can begin to make changes that feel right for them.
She often works with people who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse and has supported community members living with HIV/AIDS and those in the LGBTQ community.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with people facing homelessness and complex life stressors. Lindsay meets clients where they are and focuses on practical steps forward. Her style is warm and interactive.
Conversations are collaborative and geared toward the client’s goals. Lindsay avoids stigmatizing labels and focuses on personal strengths and coping skills. In sessions she uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person.
That can include attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings, client-centered listening to follow what matters most, and EMDR as one option for processing trauma. She also incorporates motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques when helpful. Lindsay emphasizes clear, manageable goals and short-term strategies alongside deeper work when needed.
She supports people through grief, parenting strain, intimacy concerns, anger, and changes that come with pregnancy and childbirth. Her aim is to help people gain tools and confidence to handle life’s challenges.

Online support
How Lindsay’s approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect how people feel and connect. Online sessions can use this approach to help clients notice patterns in relationships and try new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening and following what matters most to the client; it helps people feel heard and find their own solutions during conversation. EMDR is used as a method some therapists use to help process distressing memories, and it may be offered when trauma processing is part of the work.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will talk about goals, past experiences, and preferences to decide which methods to try first. Plans are adjusted over time so the work fits changing needs and pace.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or the client prefers not to use a camera. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coping reminders, or when someone needs flexible contact during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on progress and practical tools.
