About Linda
Linda Burroughs is a Licensed Master Social Worker with 35 years of practice in social work. She welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anger, grief, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. Linda also supports people facing career pressures, parenting strains, relationship tension, compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and aging-related concerns.
She offers a calm, listening presence and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Sessions look at what is working, what is getting in the way, and small changes that make a difference.
Background and approach
Linda helps clients build self-awareness, find coping strategies, and celebrate progress along the way. Her background includes work in agencies addressing medical, social, and emotional needs for adults and children. She has provided home-based services to people with physical disabilities and to at-risk mothers, and has supported people managing depression and anxiety.
She has also served in school social work, special education administration, early childhood leadership, and as an adjunct professor. Linda earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and holds a Michigan Licensed Master Social Worker credential, LMSW. Those experiences shaped a practical, people-centered approach that draws on cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness, solution-focused strategies, and client-centered care.
Clients who choose her work with someone who listens closely, suggests achievable steps, and follows their pace. She invites people ready to try new strategies to begin building clearer routines, better coping, and more satisfying daily life.

Using practical approaches in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person rather than labels. It uses empathy and reflective listening so people feel heard and can identify their own next steps. This approach helps when someone needs a respectful space to talk through feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the thoughts and habits that keep problems going. It teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, which is useful for anxiety, anger, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple ways to notice the present moment and reduce reactivity to strong emotions.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked in the past. Together they try tools, adjust strategies, and pick what fits best for the person's life and needs.
Online sessions offer practical benefits. Video calls are close to an in-person meeting and work well for deeper conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit easily into a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send short check-ins, manage quick challenges, or follow up between sessions. These options make it easier to use therapy around daily life and keep momentum between meetings.
