About Linda
Linda Coggan is a BACP counsellor with 18 years of experience offering calm, practical support. She listens without judgement and helps people find clearer ways to manage stress, anxiety and sleep problems. Her approach is warm and direct, aimed at making small changes that fit into everyday life.
She places emphasis on attachment and relationships, looking at how past bonds affect current patterns. That perspective is used alongside cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. Mindfulness techniques are introduced to help with worry, emotional overwhelm and improving rest.
Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. Conversations cover relationships, grief, parenting strains, work stress and mood difficulties. Linda also supports people dealing with ADHD, trauma and issues such as guilt, codependency and isolation.
Practical tools and simple experiments are common in sessions. This might include short behavioural tasks, breathing or grounding practices, and breaking problems into manageable steps. Linda aims to make therapy useful between appointments as well as during them.
She works from the United Kingdom and carries a registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP. Sessions are held in English. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a time.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at relationships and how early bonds shape current patterns; online conversations can bring these patterns into view so they can be understood and adjusted. Cognitive behavioural work helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours, which can be practised between sessions to improve sleep and reduce anxiety. Mindfulness therapy offers simple attention and grounding practices to calm the body and quiet racing thoughts that interfere with rest.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide whether attachment-focused exploration, CBT techniques or mindfulness exercises best fit a person's goals and daily routine. That collaborative planning helps tailor sessions to individual needs and preferences.
Confirm the session formats before booking, since the original biography did not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or making it simpler to use audio only if video feels difficult. Many people find remote sessions help them practise techniques in real life between meetings and keep therapy consistent during life changes.
