Linda Franga, LPC

Linda Franga is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor based in Colorado with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, parenting concerns, and issues that arise with aging and caregiving. Linda aims to build a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship and helps clients set clear, achievable goals.

She has worked in schools, nonprofits, residential treatment settings, and community support centers. Much of her work includes time as a Military and Family Life Counselor. Linda earned a master’s degree from Boston University and has worked with people in multiple countries, which shaped her practical approach to therapy.

In sessions she prioritizes listening and finding useful steps clients can try between meetings. She draws on client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when correcting unhelpful thoughts and habits can reduce distress. Solution-Focused techniques help create short-term plans and track progress.

Linda often works with caregivers and people facing midlife changes, blended family challenges, or the stress of supporting aging relatives. She also addresses intimacy concerns, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and trauma or abuse when those issues are present.

Her style is plainspoken and goal-oriented. Clients can expect the therapist to jointly set targets and to revisit them as needs change. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions and communication are conducted in English and Linda does not work with international clients.

How Linda Uses Client-Centered and Cognitive Methods Online

Linda draws on client-centered therapy to keep the conversation focused on what matters most to the person seeking help. That approach means listening carefully and following the client's concerns rather than pushing a preset agenda. It is useful for building trust and clarifying goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and change thoughts or behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, sleep trouble, or anger. CBT offers concrete skills and small experiments people can try between sessions to measure what helps.

Solution-Focused Therapy helps create short-term plans with clear steps and measures of progress. It works well when someone wants specific changes and a way to track improvement over a few sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that match the client's needs and preferences, and adjust plans as progress is made. This collaborative stance helps tailor work to life circumstances and goals.

Session logistics and exact formats are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten some check-ins, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals often use these advantages to help clients maintain consistent care while juggling caregiving, work, or other daily responsibilities.
