How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. It can help when anger or anxiety gets in the way of relationships or work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines thinking patterns and practices concrete behavior changes to reduce reactive responses and manage mood swings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Linda will discuss goals and preferences and then recommend strategies from these approaches. That collaboration helps shape sessions so they focus on the skills and exercises that matter most to the client.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or remove travel time. If you want to address anger, online sessions can include skill practice, thought records, and mindfulness exercises you can use between meetings. Ask about the available formats when you schedule so sessions match your routine and needs.
