Linda Comeau, LMFT

Linda Comeau is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Connecticut with 30 years of experience in the mental health field. She has worked across levels of care, including a range of outpatient settings and inpatient psychiatric hospitalization, bringing a systems-oriented family therapy perspective to work with individuals, couples, and families.

Her professional interests include depression and anxiety, relationship concerns across personal and professional contexts, effective parenting in both biological and blended families, career challenges, emotional abuse, women's issues, codependency, the family impact of medical and addiction issues, grief and loss, and adapting to life changes. Training in family systems informs her approach to working with people of all ages in diverse situations.

Comeau earned a B.S. in Education from the University of Connecticut in 1973, an M.S. in Education from Central Connecticut State University in 1976, and an M.S. in Counseling with a focus on Marital and Family Therapy from Central Connecticut State University in 1992. She spent nearly two decades as a public school teacher before transitioning to a full-time career in mental health.

Her clinical work is grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and a solution-focused orientation, and she emphasizes self-care, social supports, clear communication, healthy boundary setting, and realistic expectations as foundations for improved life satisfaction. She adopts a warm, strength-based stance and values the collaborative effort involved when people make changes that restore balance in their lives.
