About Linda

Linda Platt is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona with nine years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports people dealing with family and intimacy-related issues, grief, parenting strain, and ADHD.

Linda treats clients as the experts on their own lives. Sessions focus on listening, clarifying patterns, and building practical strategies that fit day-to-day life. She uses straightforward conversation and evidence-based tools to help people notice how family of origin patterns influence current behavior and relationships.

Her approach combines attachment-based work with cognitive behavioral techniques and emotionally-focused ideas. That means she looks at how early relationship roles shape expectations, then tests and shifts unhelpful thoughts and interaction habits. Mindfulness practices are used to increase awareness of feelings and impulses in the moment.

In a typical session she will reflect what she hears, offer concrete skills to try between meetings, and check what changes or challenges came up. Therapy is collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort. The focus is on small, actionable changes rather than long lectures.

Linda has worked in private practice settings across Arizona. She accepts clients who speak English and is willing to work with international clients. Before booking, people are asked to confirm current session options and scheduling details.

How clinical approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship roles shape current expectations. Online conversations can be used to notice those patterns and practice new ways of relating in everyday interactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. In remote sessions this often means setting small homework tasks and reviewing how they went between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and will adjust strategies over time based on what helps most.

Specific session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel time. Online work also makes it possible to try skills in real-life contexts and then discuss how they went at the next meeting.
