About Linda
Linda Comeau is a licensed marriage and family therapist with three decades of experience. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, parenting, and major life changes. Linda uses straightforward language and a calm approach to guide people through difficult moments.
Her work grew from a background in education and years in direct mental health settings. She held teaching roles before completing a master of science in counseling with a focus on marital and family therapy.
Background and approach
That training and long practice give her a systems perspective on problems that affect relationships and daily life. Sessions aim to strengthen communication, set clearer boundaries, and build realistic expectations. Linda draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused strategies to help people shift thoughts and behaviors that keep them stuck.
She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas and attachment-aware listening when those fit the situation. Many clients come for help with parenting in both biological and blended families, codependency, emotional abuse, caregiver stress, and career pressures. She also supports people facing medical or addiction impacts in their families and those dealing with fertility, aging, or cancer-related stress.
Linda describes her style as warm, positive, and strength based. She concentrates on small, manageable changes that restore balance. When someone is ready to begin, she offers steady encouragement and practical direction.
Approach-informed online therapy for relationships and anxiety
Linda often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try out different behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, depression, and practical problem solving.She also brings attachment-based ideas to sessions, which focus on how early and current relationships shape feeling and trust. That work can help with intimacy issues, family patterns, and communication problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals and try methods that match those goals and personal preferences. That collaborative process helps choose whether to emphasize CBT, attachment work, or solution-focused steps.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for in-depth conversations and reading nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit a short break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or health needs while using evidence-informed approaches.
