About Linda

Linda Orlando is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maine. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, career questions, and coping with life changes. Her tone is encouraging and straightforward, and she emphasizes each person’s strengths when they begin therapy.

She believes clients know their own stories and brings that perspective into sessions. Conversations are collaborative - the client’s experiences guide the work while the therapist offers tools and direction. This helps people face issues like depression, low self-esteem, sleep problems, and the everyday strains of parenting and grief.

Linda uses several approaches to match what a person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in clarifying values and taking small steps toward them. Client-centered methods make room for a person to lead the pace and focus of sessions.

Her background includes nine years in clinical practice and work with a range of concerns such as ADHD, chronic pain or illness, body image, and life purpose. She encourages people to notice strengths and build on practical strategies for daily life. Linda aims to make therapy a useful part of getting through change and stress.

To start, she asks people to pick the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take small, value-driven steps even when strong feelings are present. It can help with anxiety, stress, and adjusting to health challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and provides practical techniques to change patterns that contribute to depression, worry, or sleep problems. Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person’s own priorities and pace, allowing the client to steer what matters most in each session.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, what has helped before, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try, and they can shift course if something doesn’t fit. This collaborative process aims to make therapy useful and manageable.

Confirm the current session options before booking to know how sessions are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a quick update is needed. It can also let someone choose a quieter time of day, avoid camera use if desired, or arrange sessions around work and caregiving. These practical benefits help therapy fit into everyday routines without promising any specific outcome.
