Lynette Accomando, LMHC

Lynette Accomando is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts with 38 years of professional experience. She has helped people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting problems, and trauma. Her work also covers anger, addictions, grief, self-esteem, career concerns, and coping with life changes.

Her background includes supporting people after physical trauma and emotional or sexual abuse. She has worked with those living with bipolar symptoms, PTSD, and people managing compassion fatigue. Lynette notes experience with blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication and control problems, and challenges that follow divorce or separation.

She describes her style as supportive and interactive. Sessions involve listening, talking through problems, and building on strengths clients already have. She favors practical approaches that help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and manage strong feelings such as anger or impulsivity.

Lynette combines cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, person-centered, humanistic, and rational-emotive methods. Those methods are used to address unhelpful thinking, emotional regulation, and relationship patterns. She works with clients to set clear goals and choose what techniques to try.

She does not use stigmatizing labels and treats clients with respect and sensitivity. The first session typically focuses on where a person is now, what they want to change, and small steps to begin moving toward those goals. Clients who want to start are asked to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.
