Linda Richards , LPC

Linda Richards specializes in helping people move beyond the “stuck points” that keep them repeating patterns they do not understand. She frames these moments of confusion and unexpected behavior as common human experiences and approaches them with curiosity and clinical skill.

Richards has worked in the mental health field and focused on trauma since 1997. Her practice emphasizes how trauma can underlie many different presentations - including anxiety, depression, chronic illness, pain, and other patterns that are often rooted in past neglect or injury. She notes that these trauma-based presentations can affect performance at school, sports, work, and in relationships, and that many people do not recognize how past wounds shape current reactions.

She employs a range of trauma-informed methods to help clients process and move forward, drawing on somatic-based therapies, EMDR, Trauma Model therapy, brain spotting, DBT, CBT, and Ego state therapies. Richards works with children and adults of all ages and meets each person where they are in order to restore emotional balance and improve daily functioning.

Richards holds the LPC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor. She encourages clients to approach change at a manageable pace and to not let fear prevent them from working toward their full potential.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can produce meaningful change. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is scheduling flexibility. Clients can connect with therapists in the format that works best for them - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to fit consistent care into a busy life.

Sessions are provided by licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they want a different match. For many people, the convenience and comparable effectiveness of online therapy make it a practical and accessible way to pursue personal growth and symptom relief.
