About Linda Culver
Linda Culver is a licensed mental health professional with two decades of clinical experience supporting people through addiction, mood challenges, relationship struggles, grief, and life transitions. She holds the LMHC credential - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - and is also a nationally certified Master Addiction Counselor through NAADAC, and has worked in hospitals, residential treatment centers, and outpatient counseling settings with clients ranging in age from early teens to older adults.
Drawing on a primarily cognitive-behavioral orientation, Linda emphasizes the links between thoughts, choices, and behaviors while helping clients develop practical skills for reframing and decision making. At the same time she values learning to experience and tolerate emotions as an essential part of coping and growth, and she often integrates approaches that support emotional awareness and processing. Her background in addiction treatment makes her particularly experienced at assisting people in 12 Step recovery who seek additional therapeutic support that complements their recovery principles.
Linda believes that no situation is hopeless and that many forms of distress can be reduced through collaborative work and gradual change. When grief, adjustment to change, or overwhelming stress make daily life difficult, she encourages clients to work through those challenges together rather than alone. She also offers weekday daytime appointments and is available to communicate by the method that feels most comfortable to each person.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where the client's own goals and values guide the work - it helps people clarify what matters to them and build self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, depression, and addictive patterns; it offers practical tools for reframing thoughts and testing new behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify, express, and regulate strong emotions so they can improve relationships and cope more effectively with loss or trauma.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Linda works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. That partnership allows adjustments over time so treatment stays relevant and effective.
Online therapy makes these approaches more accessible by offering flexible formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - so people can engage from where they are and at times that fit their schedule. Licensed professionals can adapt these evidence-informed methods to remote sessions, helping clients balance care with work, family, and other responsibilities.
