About LinTiya

LinTiya McCleary is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina. She brings five years of clinical experience focusing on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, self-esteem, and depression. LinTiya aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion from the first conversation.

She prefers a straightforward, collaborative style. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings. LinTiya adapts conversations and plans to fit each person's needs instead of using the same approach for everyone.

How LinTiya works

Her work often addresses attachment issues, communication problems, control issues, and the fallout from divorce and separation. She also helps people work through guilt, shame, forgiveness, and isolation. Money worries, life purpose, and challenges tied to mood disorders are part of her caseload too.

LinTiya uses several therapeutic approaches to guide work in session. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift unhelpful patterns. Client-centered and mindfulness-based techniques help people build self-compassion and present-moment awareness.

People who come to LinTiya can expect a calm, respectful atmosphere and practical goals. She emphasizes clear communication and steady progress. The aim is to help people move toward more satisfying relationships, better mood management, and stronger self-worth.

Online support options

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identify personal values to guide action. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and finding direction in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with concrete behavioral experiments, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, empathetic relationship where the person leads the pace of change and builds self-acceptance.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, history, and what feels most useful. Then the plan is adjusted over time so it better fits the person's needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers ways to fit care into busy days. Video calls let people work face-to-face when schedules allow. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to share thoughts between sessions or to use brief written check-ins during a workday. These options increase flexibility and help people keep therapy consistent with daily life.

A practical next step

Write down two things you would want to be different in six months. That is the most useful thing to bring to a first session, whoever it is with. If you would rather start now than keep reading, online sessions are the quickest route.
