About Linda
Linda Benvenuti is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Rhode Island. She brings two decades of clinical and coaching experience to sessions. Linda focuses on practical strategies for stress and anxiety so people can find clearer footing in daily life.
Her approach centers on solutions and positive psychology. She uses straightforward tools to address worry, low self-esteem, motivation, and sleep problems. Clients also work on career decisions, coping with life transitions, and challenges linked to parenting or relationships.
Background and approach
Linda has a background in counseling and coaching in college settings and other therapeutic environments. That experience shaped her work with people facing midlife changes, divorce and separation, grief, and shifts in education or career paths. She also supports those managing chronic pain, illness, or disability and people struggling with body image or eating concerns.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. Linda helps people set clear, manageable steps and practices they can try between meetings. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes when those issues come up and addresses impulsivity, guilt, shame, and isolation as part of the work.
She offers services in English and accepts international clients. Linda blends coaching and counseling techniques so clients can build skills, make choices, and move toward the life changes they want.
Practical approaches for online anxiety and life changes
Linda uses evidence-based techniques focused on what helps most in day-to-day life. Cognitive behavioral strategies help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. Positive psychology methods build on strengths and small changes to boost motivation, confidence, and life satisfaction.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level, and will adjust strategies as progress is made. Clients and the therapist set clear, achievable steps together so therapy feels practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video is useful for longer conversations and teaching new skills. Phone sessions can fit a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or ongoing coaching-style support when schedules are tight.
