About Destinie
Destinie Lambert is an Illinois-licensed LCSW who supports people working through addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, self-esteem concerns, and bipolar disorder.
Background and approach
She brings three years of clinical experience to each client interaction and aims to foster a nonjudgmental space where emotions and thoughts can be openly explored. Lambert emphasizes collaboration and respects the courage it takes to seek change, offering steady guidance as clients pursue more satisfying, balanced lives.
Her practice also includes specialized attention to hospice and end-of-life counseling, veteran and armed forces issues, personality disorders, and postpartum depression. She integrates evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to tailor support to each person’s needs.
Lambert frames therapy as a partnership and works with clients to identify meaningful goals and practical strategies that fit their circumstances and values.
Approaches and online care tailored to your needs
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and learn practical ways to move toward a meaningful life despite difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be helpful for mood concerns, grief, and challenges that involve motivation or avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve functioning; it is commonly used for mood regulation, trauma-related symptoms, and managing cravings or addictive behaviors.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences with each client and recommend methods that align with those needs. Over a few sessions the plan can be adjusted so clients feel the work is relevant and manageable while learning skills that fit their life circumstances.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, letting people access support from home or other convenient locations. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions around work or caretaking responsibilities, and they allow the therapeutic relationship and techniques to be practiced in day-to-day contexts for better carryover into everyday life.
