She also supports people dealing with trauma, attachment difficulties, ADHD, and aging and geriatric issues.

How Linda's approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current behavior and emotions. Online sessions using this approach often focus on noticing patterns in relationships and trying new ways of connecting that reduce distress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In virtual sessions CBT includes identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing new reactions or skills between visits to change daily routines and reduce symptoms.
Hypnotherapy is used as an adjunct tool to help people access focused attention and suggestion for issues like anxiety, habit change, or managing stress. When appropriate, it can be introduced alongside other approaches to support specific goals.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and recommend methods to try. That collaborative exploration helps decide whether attachment work, CBT, hypnotherapy, or a mix feels most useful.
Confirm session formats before booking, as current options are not listed here. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can also make it simpler to maintain continuity during life transitions while focusing on practical skills and relationship patterns.
