About Dr. Lynn Duffy
She approaches each person and relationship with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, shaping conversations and treatment plans to address unique needs rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all model. Dr. Duffy offers brief, solution-focused therapy intended to address specific goals within a shorter-term format rather than extended long-term treatment.
Some concerns and situations are not suited to this format, and Dr. Duffy will refer to another provider or to a higher level of care when appropriate. Examples include emotional, physical or domestic violence, sexual or financial abuse, high-conflict situations or any circumstance with a potential for violence. She is also unable to provide disability-related services because she is not trained, certified, or an expert in that area.
Dr. Duffy asks that clients be in an appropriate setting for a session. If a person is driving or riding and not parked, has a third party present, is sitting in a public area such as a restaurant, or is using alcohol or other substances during a scheduled session, the meeting will be recorded as a missed appointment and rescheduled when the person is prepared for a meeting. Clients are requested to be online at the scheduled time and to wear headphones so sessions can begin promptly; wired headphones are preferred over Bluetooth for additional privacy considerations.
When a matter would be better served by mediation, chaplain services, or an individual therapy format rather than brief couples work, Dr. Duffy will recommend those alternatives. She appreciates the courage it takes to begin therapy and is committed to supporting people who choose to start this process.
