About Lindsey
Lindsey Yarbrough is a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationships and the patterns that shape them, helping people who want clearer communication and more satisfying connections. Lindsey centers her work on practical steps people can try between sessions.
Lindsey helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, and life changes. She also supports those dealing with intimacy-related concerns, career strain, compassion fatigue, and questions about identity including LGBT issues.
Background and approach
Her approach is grounded in real-world problem solving rather than jargon. In sessions Lindsey starts by mapping what matters most to each person. She looks at attachment and communication patterns, control issues, and family of origin influences to find where small changes can make a difference.
She encourages clients to practice new ways of relating outside of therapy. People who come to Lindsey often want to heal from abandonment wounds, rebuild trust after infidelity, manage guilt and shame, or find direction during a midlife or career shift. She also helps with money and financial stress, loneliness, and forgiveness work.
Her style is straightforward and compassionate. Lindsey emphasizes a healthy relationship with oneself as the foundation for other relationships. She works collaboratively and keeps goals clear and achievable.
Sessions include talk, feedback, and homework tailored to each person’s life and schedule.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online relationship work
Evidence-based approaches Lindsey commonly uses include attachment-focused work and communication-based strategies. Attachment-focused work looks at how early relationship patterns influence present reactions and helps people identify safer ways to relate. Communication-based strategies teach concrete skills for expressing needs, setting boundaries, and de-escalating conflict so conversations feel more productive.Choosing a therapeutic approach is collaborative. Lindsey will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust as progress is seen. Together they decide which tools to keep using and which to change based on how well those tools meet the client's needs.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face when that helps with connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good option when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for flexible, on-the-go check-ins or ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
