How Linda works
Linda also served as a school social worker and led special education and early childhood programs. Linda draws on a broad mix of skills developed over decades in clinical and educational settings. She focuses on helping people increase self-awareness and find workable strategies for coping.
Sessions look at what is getting in the way now and what simple changes might improve day-to-day functioning. Her work often centers on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and parenting concerns, self-esteem, anger, career change, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She also pays attention to aging and geriatric issues when relevant.
Linda helps people set realistic goals and celebrates progress along the way. Expect a collaborative tone. Linda listens first, then helps design steps that fit each person's life.
The aim is steady, sustainable change rather than quick fixes.

Online support options
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead. The therapist offers empathy, reflection, and encouragement to help people find their own answers and build confidence in daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. It helps people test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then tailor techniques from these approaches to match those needs. That collaborative process helps shape a clear plan for sessions.
Online therapy makes those approaches more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions are useful when a camera is not needed or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can support short check-ins, coping reminders, and between-session follow-ups. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
