About Linda
Linda Coggan uses an approachable, attachment-informed style to help people make sense of difficult feelings. She is a BACP therapist with 18 years of experience. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, loss and relationship strain.
Her work often focuses on stress and anxiety, grief and loss, relationship concerns and trauma and abuse. She also supports people facing parenting pressures, sleep or eating difficulties, low self-esteem, anger and mood problems.
Background and approach
Additional areas include attachment issues, abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, and communication or blended family challenges. Sessions centre on listening first and then finding practical steps that fit daily life. She draws on client-centred conversations alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness practices to help with thinking patterns, emotional reactions and coping strategies.
Trauma-focused elements are used when past hurts need careful attention. Linda describes therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people identify small changes and ways to try them out between sessions.
The tone is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at making progress feel manageable. People who want to start are invited to reflect on what they most want to change and to use the platform tools to match with her. The initial paperwork and scheduling let you choose times that suit your routine before beginning work together.

How Linda works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Decisions about pace and techniques are made together so the approach fits your needs and everyday life.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are set by the therapist's profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins, easier access when mobility is limited, and fewer disruptions from commuting. Registered or accredited professionals use these methods to help people make steady progress without changing daily routines.
