About Linda
Linda Robinson, MD, LCSW-C helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and trauma. She focuses on building self-esteem and supporting work around guilt, shame, forgiveness, life purpose, and self-love. Her tone is compassionate and grounded, with attention to each person's values and goals.
She blends practical, evidence-based techniques with attention to a person's spiritual and personal identity. Sessions aim to identify patterns that keep someone stuck and to try small, doable steps that feel meaningful.
Background and approach
Linda emphasizes tools people can use between sessions to manage overwhelming days. In sessions she listens for what matters most to the individual and tailors the pace accordingly. She helps people name difficult feelings, work through painful memories, and rebuild a sense of worth.
The approach is collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all. Linda has 14 years of clinical experience and holds both an MD and a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical, LCSW-C. Her background supports a wide view of emotional health that includes relationships, faith when relevant, and practical life changes.
Clients can expect clear goals, check-ins about progress, and adjustments when something isn't working. She offers talk-based care alongside behavioral tools to reduce anxiety and manage cravings or low mood. The aim is steady, realistic progress toward a life that feels more purposeful and kind to oneself.
Approach and online options for coping with anxiety
Linda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One common approach is cognitive-behavioral style work, which helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed care, which helps people safely process painful experiences and build skills to manage intense emotions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, values, and comfort level. Plans are revisited as progress is made so strategies can be adjusted if something isn't helpful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful when a full conversation and visual cues matter, while phone sessions can fit into a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text are helpful for brief check-ins, daily tracking, or when someone prefers to write rather than speak. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and try techniques between meetings.
