Background and approach
She draws on Narrative Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy among other approaches to shape sessions around the client's needs. Sessions focus on small, doable changes and clearer thinking rather than jargon. Linda aims to help people notice the stories they tell about themselves and try new perspectives.
That can change how problems feel and open up choices that felt hidden before. She also works on concrete skills like communication, mood regulation, and sleep routines when those are useful. Her style is calm and direct, with attention to practical steps and the person's values.
Linda supports people navigating life transitions, caregiving stress, addiction concerns, and issues tied to family or past trauma. She also helps with eating and intimacy-related concerns when they come up. Sessions are offered in English and available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Linda accepts clients who prefer remote work within the United States and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online session options
Online approaches that fit your life
Linda uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and find different ways to understand problems. That approach can be helpful for relationship concerns, grief, identity questions, and recurrent patterns that feel stuck.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on listening and responding to a person's values and goals. This helps build trust and lets the pace be set by the person seeking support. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or lift mood.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first and adjust over time based on needs and goals. This helps make therapy feel relevant and practical.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for conversations that benefit from visual cues, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter session fits the day, and messaging allows ongoing check-ins and brief reflections between sessions. These options offer flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or mobility limits and make it easier to maintain regular contact.
