About Linda
Linda Losi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 35 years of experience. She began her professional path after graduating from Barry University in 1996 and also brings experience as a retired registered nurse. Linda focuses on common life stresses including anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and grief.
She uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. Linda works collaboratively and invites clients to take active steps between meetings. Conversations are direct and focused on finding what helps in daily life.
Linda draws on several therapeutic approaches depending on the person and the problem. She uses client-centered techniques to listen and prioritize what matters to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are used to teach skills for managing thoughts, emotions, and behavior.
She also incorporates elements of existential work and hypnotherapy when those approaches fit a client's goals. That can mean looking at life choices and meaning or using guided relaxation to access different perspectives on a problem.
Linda has worked with issues that include relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting and family stress, career strain, ADHD, compassion fatigue, grief, eating concerns, and identity-related topics such as LGBT matters. She also notes experience with personality-related difficulties, codependency, and post-traumatic stress.
Her style is practical and action-oriented. Sessions focus on clear steps, skills practice, and honest conversation about progress and obstacles. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and prioritizing the client's concerns. Online sessions can use that style to keep conversations focused on what the client says matters most and to guide practical next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about noticing thought patterns and testing them with new behaviors. In remote sessions CBT often involves short skill teaching, homework assignments, and reviewing results between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that are taught and practiced in session, then applied to real-life situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that match the client's needs, goals, and preferences. She will adjust methods based on what is working and what the client feels able to use.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and daily routines. They also allow shorter check-ins, focused skills practice, and written follow-up that help with applying new tools between sessions.
