About Linda
Linda Coggan offers a warm, person-centred way of working. She brings 18 years of experience and focuses on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, loss and relationship strain. She aims to make the first step feel manageable and to support people through change.
Her approach puts the person at the centre. Sessions are shaped around what the individual wants to address. Linda listens for patterns that keep problems going and helps people notice small shifts that make life easier.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help with worrying thoughts and unhelpful behaviour. Mindfulness skills are used to build calm and focus. Attachment-based ideas guide work around relationship wounds and how past interactions affect current connections.
Practical tools are blended with plain conversation. That might mean trying a short exercise in session or setting a simple task to practice during the week. Progress is tracked in small steps so change feels tangible rather than overwhelming.
Linda has dealt with a wide range of issues across nearly two decades. Alongside core concerns such as depression and coping with life changes, she supports people with parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, anger and self-esteem challenges. She also addresses more specific themes like abandonment, codependency and communication problems.
Sessions are offered in English for people located in the United Kingdom. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling is arranged to fit the person’s needs.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk about options, try techniques in session, and adapt the plan to the person’s goals and preferences. Decisions about which methods to use are made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, or for people who prefer typing to speaking. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit into a busy life.
