Linda Burrell, LMHC - Therapist in Florida

About Linda

Linda Burrell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who focuses on family and parenting concerns along with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues. She brings 12 years of experience to sessions and aims to create a straightforward, practical space where parents and caregivers can address stress, anxiety, grief, depression, sleep problems, and substance-related concerns.

Linda uses clear, direct talk to help people identify what is getting in the way and what small steps might help at home and with family members.

Background and approach

Her style is warm and down-to-earth. She values trust and building rapport early so clients feel comfortable sharing real-life struggles. She explains options in plain language and adjusts methods to fit each person rather than using one fixed plan.

Clinically, Linda draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy techniques to listen and guide at the client’s pace, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when stronger emotion regulation is needed. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing are added tools when helpful for focus and motivation.

Linda’s background includes twelve years working in mental health settings with adults, adolescents, and children in both individual and group formats. Her license is FL LMHC MH16291. She conducts sessions in English and works with common parenting and family challenges alongside other behavioral health concerns.

She approaches therapy as a collaborative effort. Sessions are practical and goal-minded, with attention to changes families can try between meetings. Linda encourages honest communication and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Practical approaches for online family and parenting support

Linda commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and parenting stress. DBT teaches skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication, which is useful for anger, impulsivity, and intense family conflict.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work paced to each family's needs. That approach prioritizes listening and building trust so families feel heard. Determining the right mix of methods is a joint process - the therapist and client discuss goals, preferences, and daily realities to choose what will be most useful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family routines, follow up between meetings, and practice new skills in real time. The variety of formats supports consistent work toward goals while giving families flexibility.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
