About Linda

Linda Guidry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, anger, depression, ADHD, and life transitions. She writes and talks plainly, and aims to make therapy practical and achievable. Linda brings 16 years of experience to sessions and focuses on helping clients regain energy and direction.

Her style is warm and goal oriented. Sessions center on the client's needs and priorities. She uses clear, step-by-step techniques to set goals and practice new skills between meetings.

Background and approach

Linda earned a master’s degree in Educational Leadership, Guidance, and Counseling from the University of New Orleans. She has worked in independent practice, the foster care system, a day program for chronically ill adults, and nonprofit settings. Those roles shaped her work with mood disorders, anxiety, depression, grief, and chronic illness.

In session she blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She also uses mindfulness and hypnotherapy tools where helpful. These approaches are used to break problems into manageable steps and to build coping skills that fit daily life.

Linda aims to help people find balance and make decisions that feel right for them. She supports clients as they work toward personal growth, better self-understanding, and clearer relationships. Her approach is practical, compassionate, and focused on real-world change.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Linda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and try practical behavior changes. CBT often focuses on specific problems like anxiety, low mood, or difficulty concentrating, and gives clear tools to practice between sessions.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills can be helpful when strong emotions or recurring conflicts get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaboration. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try techniques, and adjust as needed. Linda aims to match methods to each person’s needs and preferences over time rather than insisting on a single method up front.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing coaching, quick skill practice, or between-session check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to continue work between meetings.
