About Linda

Linda Comeau is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 30 years of experience in mental health. She practices from a systems perspective and focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and relationship struggles. Linda emphasizes practical skills that make daily life easier for stressed parents and professionals.

She brings experience from outpatient settings and inpatient psychiatric work, and she previously taught in public schools for nearly two decades.

Background and approach

Her education includes a B.S. in Education from the University of Connecticut, an M.S. in Education from Central Connecticut State University, and an M.S. in Counseling with a focus on Marital and Family Therapy from Central Connecticut State University. In sessions she concentrates on clear communication, healthy boundaries, and realistic expectations.

Her style is warm and strengths-focused, with an emphasis on helping clients learn new behaviors and shift unhelpful attitudes. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused tools to set achievable goals. Linda also incorporates approaches that attend to attachment patterns and relationship dynamics when those issues are relevant.

She supports people dealing with parenting challenges, blended family concerns, caregiving stress, and the emotional impact of medical or addiction problems on family members. Clients are invited to take gradual steps toward change. Linda aims to encourage and support people as they try new ways of coping, rebuild balance, and strengthen connections in their lives.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions and practical benefits

Linda integrates the Gottman Method ideas into relationship-focused work, emphasizing communication skills, repair of interaction patterns, and building shared understanding in everyday life. Gottman-informed strategies can help people who want clearer conversations and more reliable ways to handle conflict.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify values, notice unhelpful thoughts, and take committed steps toward meaningful goals. ACT is useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes where values-based action matters. Attachment-Based Therapy appears when early relationship patterns influence current struggles, helping people understand how past bonds shape present expectations and reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, what feels most useful, and what methods fit their situation. Together they adapt techniques over time so sessions match the person's needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions support face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for quick reflections, between-session coaching, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make therapy more flexible for busy schedules and varied daily demands.
