Linda Franga, LPC

Linda Franga helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, or life transitions. She comes across as steady and practical. Her work focuses on clear goals and everyday skills that make life more manageable.

Linda is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, with about 15 years of clinical experience. She has worked in schools, nonprofits, residential programs, and community support centers. She has also provided services in multiple countries and now practices in Colorado.

In sessions she uses straightforward methods to help people find solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered ideas, and Solution-Focused techniques shape her work. That means she helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts, use their strengths, and set small reachable goals.

Linda emphasizes the relationship in therapy. She aims to listen without judgment and to tailor the pace to each person. People can expect practical steps between meetings and attention to real-life problems like sleep, parenting stress, caregiving strain, and job-related concerns.

Her background includes work with military and family life counseling and experience across different care settings. Those roles have informed a flexible, goal-oriented approach. The focus is on skills people can use right away to reduce anxiety, improve communication, and rebuild confidence.

How Linda’s approaches translate to online therapy

Linda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is practical and often focuses on short-term skill building for issues like anxiety, depression, sleep, and anger. Client-Centered Therapy shapes how she listens and responds, offering empathetic attention that lets people feel heard and choose their own direction. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows the view to small, doable changes and concrete goals, which can be useful when someone wants quick, actionable steps.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Linda will work with each person to decide which methods fit best, based on their goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Online formats she uses include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins, ongoing problem-solving, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
