About Linda
Linda Boffo supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related concerns. She also helps with self-esteem, family problems and issues tied to attachment and abandonment. She communicates in English and Italian and has three years of professional experience.
Linda is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her style is calm and exploratory. She uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions.
How Linda works
Sessions aim to make patterns clearer so people can respond differently in daily life. The tone in sessions is compassionate and non-judgemental. Linda works with a range of relational and personal struggles.
These include communication problems, commitment issues, codependency and body image concerns. She also supports those dealing with caregiver stress, divorce and separation, domestic violence harms, and the emotional impact of disasters. She is comfortable discussing alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink, and addresses intimacy concerns tied to those areas.
Family of origin issues and long-standing feelings of emptiness are also within her focus. Therapy is tailored to the person rather than a fixed programme. Sessions are offered online in formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.
People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability. Fees vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time.

How psychodynamic ideas and online therapy work together
Psychodynamic approaches focus on understanding how early experiences and repeated patterns influence current feelings and relationships. The work often involves talking through memories, recurring reactions and the emotions that come up in the therapy room to gain clearer insight into why certain situations feel difficult. This can help with anxieties, attachment worries and long-standing relationship problems.Alongside that, plain conversational techniques are used to address immediate concerns such as stress, communication problems and intimacy worries. These practical conversations aim to identify small changes people can try between sessions to test new ways of relating and coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which blend of exploration and practical support feels most helpful. This is shaped by the client's needs, goals and preferences rather than a fixed formula.
Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when bandwidth is available, phone sessions need less data and can fit into a shorter break, and messaging or live chat can work for brief check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to arrange regular sessions around work, caring duties or travel commitments while keeping the focus on steady progress.
