About Linda
Linda Guidry is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, grief, and life changes. She writes in a straightforward way and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Lindy aims to help clients regain energy, improve relationships, and move toward their goals.
She draws on 16 years of experience in settings such as independent practice, foster care, a day program for chronically ill adults, and the non-profit sector.
Background and approach
Linda earned a master’s degree in Educational Leadership, Guidance, and Counseling from the University of New Orleans in 2008. She holds the LPC credential and is licensed in Louisiana and Alaska. In sessions she keeps the work client-centered and goal oriented.
That means she listens first, then helps set clear, achievable steps. Linda uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and hypnotherapy to help people change unhelpful patterns and build coping skills. Many people come to her with mood disorders, anxiety or depression, anger and self-control concerns, grief and loss, or struggles after medical changes.
She also supports those facing parenting issues, relationship problems, self-esteem concerns, and ADHD-related challenges. Linda has additional focus areas that include adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and fertility-related concerns. Her style is steady and practical.
She works with each person to set goals and track progress. The aim is clearer thinking, better emotional regulation, and a stronger sense of direction.

How Linda’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s goals and values. It involves listening without judgment and helping the client set their own direction, which can help with stress, relationship questions, and building motivation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills help when strong emotions or relationship conflicts make daily life harder.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and will suggest methods to try. Decisions are made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can help with short updates, coaching-style support, or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life.
