Lynsey Retzlaff, MSW, LCSW is a licensed therapist, working mom coach, and mental wellness speaker. She is a mother of two and has over 13 years of experience in the mental health field. Through this experience, she has found joy in helping working mothers redefine, renew, and reclaim their journeys through The Renewed Working Mom Narrative™ program.
Inspired by her work at one of the few evidenced-based trauma programs in the US, Lynsey’s method teaches working mothers to rewrite their life story through innovative systems, mindset, and stress management skills to avoid burnout, live authentically, and reduce mental load, all while creating work life harmony.
Lynsey believes that mental wellness is a non-negotiable part of a successful life and happy relationships, so she provides a safe space for women to heal from painful past experiences through therapy.
As a result of renewing her own life, she partners with companies on mental wellness solutions to retain employees, improve company culture, and address burnout that impacts the bottom line of every working person. Lynsey believes personal or business goals can only be achieved with mentally well individuals and safe environments.
Lynsey's most notable features to date have been in the well-known Parents, Parade, Authority, Home & Gardens, & Canvas Rebel magazines, and her insights can be heard on multiple podcasts.
