About Linda
Linda Comeau is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Connecticut with nearly 30 years in the mental health field. She focuses on practical steps people can use to manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and life transitions. Linda aims to create a calm, encouraging space where people can work through hard moments and try new ways of coping.
Her background includes classroom teaching for almost two decades before shifting to counseling.
Background and approach
She earned a B.S. in Education from the University of Connecticut, an M.S. in Education from Central Connecticut State University, and an M.S. in Counseling with a focus on Marital and Family Therapy in 1992 from Central Connecticut State University. Linda draws on a systems perspective from family therapy to see how puzzles of behavior and communication fit together.
She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice thoughts and patterns that keep problems going. She also brings acceptance and commitment concepts and emotionally focused work when feelings and attachment patterns are part of the struggle. Sessions typically emphasize clear communication, realistic expectations, healthy boundaries, and self-care.
Linda tends to be warm and strength oriented, offering coaching-style guidance alongside therapy. She aims to help people make small changes that restore balance and improve day-to-day functioning. People who choose her often want hands-on tools for coping, better ways to talk about problems, and relief from overwhelming emotions.
She encourages anyone ready to take a first step to reach out and begin a conversation.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Linda commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT helps people accept difficult feelings while focusing on values-based actions, which can be useful for stress, anger, and life transitions. CBT teaches practical skills to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and coping strategies.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit the concern, and adjust based on what helps. Sessions often mix skill building, behavioral experiments, and conversations about patterns and relationships to find what works best for the individual.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a problem. Live chat and text offer brief check-ins, written exercises, and flexible touchpoints between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work even when in-person visits are not practical.
