Mark Lynn, PhD

Commitment to Patient-Centered Care

“I believe the best care is built on trust, collaboration, and respect. While I bring specialized training in child and adolescent psychology, I approach every family with humility—knowing that you are the experts on your lived experiences, values, and goals. I aim to empower young people and their families by listening closely, honoring their values, and partnering with you to find care plans that truly fit. I strive to create a safe, affirming space where all children and adolescents feel seen, supported, and valued.”

He completed his doctoral internship and postdoctoral fellowship at Children’s Minnesota, emphasizing child/adolescent clinical and pediatric psychology. Dr. Lynn went on to complete a second, two-year postdoctoral fellowship at Northwestern University, specializing in family systems and couples and family therapy, as well as collaborative/systemic models of psychological and therapeutic assessment.
