About Linda

Linda King-Bronner is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience in New York. She focuses on family and parenting concerns as well as addictions, career difficulties, and coping with life changes. Linda approaches people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

She aims to create a calm space for honest conversation and practical next steps. Her sessions are tailored to the individual. Linda listens first, then helps clarify what matters most.

Background and approach

Together she and the client set realistic goals and decide on small, doable changes. She adapts the pace and tone to each person’s needs. Linda draws on several therapy methods to guide her work.

She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice difficult thoughts and commit to values-based action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps find patterns in thinking and behavior that can be shifted. Attachment-Based Therapy informs how she looks at relationship patterns that affect family life.

Over three decades she has supported people facing compassion fatigue, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and bereavement-related concerns. Her practice also addresses issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family challenges, and body image. She works with people dealing with co-morbidity, codependency, and commitment struggles.

Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Linda aims to help parents and family members find clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and more manageable routines. She encourages the first step toward change and offers steady support along the way.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. This approach can be useful for coping with life changes, addiction recovery, and patterns that hold people back. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; it often helps with practical problem solving around career stress, anxiety, and mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape expectations and behavior; it is often used when family dynamics or patterns of connection are central concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Linda will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the plan collaborative and concrete.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy family schedules. Sessions can take place via video calls, by phone, through live chat, or with text-based messaging to match different comfort levels and availability. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, maintain continuity during transitions, and check in between sessions when needed.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
