How Linda’s Approaches Fit Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s priorities first. In practice this means sessions start by asking what matters most and then shaping conversations around those goals. This helps with loss, depression, relationship concerns, and aging-related decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It uses simple exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right way to work together is part of the process. The therapist will listen to your needs, try approaches that fit your goals, and adjust plans as you go. Decisions about techniques and pacing are made together, not handed down.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow follow-up conversations when schedules change. It can also make it simpler to keep consistent work during life transitions and caregiving demands.
