Attachment-informed and practical approaches for online therapy
Linda Platt draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy and connection, helping clients who struggle with trust, abandonment, or relationship cycles. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create an accepting, nonjudgmental space where clients are invited to lead the pace and focus of sessions while the therapist offers empathy and support. In addition, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides structured tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Linda works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
