About Linda
Linda Platt is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and the effects of trauma. She focuses on practical steps that ease daily life and restore a sense of control. Linda works in Arizona and brings nine years of counseling experience to each conversation.
Her sessions begin with listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. She treats each person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on.
Background and approach
Together they set clear, manageable goals and track progress over time. Linda uses several approaches to match what a person needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and change behavior.
She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how close relationships affect emotion and reactions. Mindfulness practices are added to help calm the body and focus attention when anxiety or anger feels overwhelming. Her practice includes support for addiction, grief, self-esteem, intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD, and career stress.
She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment problems, body image, and chronic illness where these affect daily coping. Sessions aim to be straightforward, respectful, and focused on what will help now. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.
Linda works with people across different life stages and helps them build skills to manage strong emotions and move forward.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions can help people identify patterns in close connections and practice new ways of relating that reduce anger and insecurity. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In teletherapy CBT exercises and behavior plans can be assigned between sessions to build new habits and reduce unhelpful thinking.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick or combine methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying things, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than committing to one fixed method up front.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls work well for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter check-ins, daily tracking, or on-the-go support. These options make it easier to keep a steady therapy routine and practice skills between appointments.
