How her approaches translate to online therapy

Linda often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and habit change because it gives clear steps to practice between sessions.

She also works from a Client-Centered perspective that prioritizes the person's own goals and pace. That means sessions focus on what the person brings up and on building a supportive, collaborative relationship. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concepts are used when relationship or intimacy issues are central, helping people notice feelings and communicate them more clearly.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and preferences to decide which methods to try. This happens together so methods can be adjusted as needed.

Please confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people use mindfulness or homework practice in their usual surroundings. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and pacing to an online setting so progress can continue even when life is busy.
