About Linda

Linda Losi is a licensed clinical social worker with more than 35 years of experience. She trained at Barry University and brings a background that includes work as a registered nurse before becoming a therapist. Linda uses practical, straightforward methods to help people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, or major life changes.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions can include talk therapy, gentle hypnotherapy, skills practice, and problem-solving.

Background and approach

She aims to make therapy feel less intimidating and more like a guided conversation where clients’ strengths are noticed and used. Linda draws from several therapy approaches, including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior therapy. She also integrates existential ideas and hypnotherapy when those fit a client’s goals.

This mix lets her tailor sessions to the person in front of her rather than rely on a single method. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, eating concerns, ADHD, bipolar, and compassion fatigue. Clients often do practical work between sessions to build new habits and coping tools.

Sessions are offered from Florida with an emphasis on clear goals and doable steps. Linda keeps a welcoming, nonjudgmental tone while encouraging action and personal responsibility. She invites people to bring their real worries and to work toward change at a manageable pace.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person without judgment and following their pace. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication - tools useful for strong emotions and relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Linda works with clients to match methods to their goals and preferences. She will suggest options, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what actually helps the client make steady progress.

Online sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make therapy more flexible. These formats let people fit sessions around work, school, or family duties and continue care when travel or schedules change. Practical exercises, skill practice, and brief check-ins can all be done remotely to keep momentum between appointments.

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.
